better than last year…

but that isn’t saying much! absolutely criminal not to add a timeline view of artists i have scheduled

2026 update

App seems much better so far. Add your favorites and then they are highlighted in yellow on the schedule. Clicking through to each event then lets you click through to the venue location which pulls up your location on the map. Would like the option to create an account to synchronize data across devices.

Worst version

I’ve been to each BE, and used each app since the beginning. The version for 2025, was the best.

Where is ‘My Shedule’?
Please bring back the separate display that only shows my choices. I don’t want to keep seeing shows I’ve decided not to see.

2026 app is soooo much better

New app works so much better. Schedule is easy to navigate and fast to load. Thanks for updating.

better than last year…

but that isn’t saying much! a way to browse the performances i have saved chronologically would be cool

Fixed

Much faster, simpler, & easier to explore than in years past. Less is more. Looking forward to the Festival.

Terrible tech for a great festival.

After several years I would expect they would have gotten to a place that the app is somewhat functional. Not yet, maybe for the 2027 event?!?

Got logged out

Day 3 of fest, app logged out and isn’t recognizing my login or email. Schedule lost.

Not good at all

Starts tomorrow but obviously, I won’t be relying on the app to get me where I want to be. Been trying to check my schedule all day and get a No Internet connection message. As I sit next to my laptop. Don’t know what changed over past years and maybe the bugs will work out overnight, but this is not good at all. Wow.

Update not ready

The update is several steps backwards from last year’s app. The developers should know that the app has to be near perfect for this time limited festival. They should have kept it as it was.

Full of glitches

I hope they fix it before the event. Grab a print out while you can

Useless

I’ll just stick to the patron-designed spreadsheet.

my phone already has a web browser

loved the apps in recent years, and eagerly awaited the 2025 update! sad to discover it’s just the festival website, which I’d been patiently waiting to stop using once the app updated

Very bad

Grid schedule can’t be zoomed in or out or resized so it’s like looking at a map through telescope. App doesn’t open half the time, just freezes at the splash screen. Just a very weird, bad app for such an expensive festival. Hope they step it up in the future and go back to syncing between desktop and phone schedules.
