## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — QueueFest more like it

*2022-04-15, version 3.2.6*

QueueFest, borefest, snorefest, Don’t waste money on VIP

### 1/5 — Bad

*2021-03-26, version 3.1.7*

Can not update!

### 1/5 — Won’t open

*2021-03-10, version 3.1.4*

Tried to download multiple times and won’t open. Turned phone off and on but nuthin’

### 1/5 — Doesn't work properly!

*2016-03-22, version 1.2.3*

Can't get the thing to slide through artists, schedules etc when iPad is tapped!

### 1/5 — Shouldn't have to pay

*2015-04-03, version 1.0.0*

As above

### 1/5 — Nothing special.

*2015-03-26, version 1.0.0*

Nothing special.

### 2/5 — Should be free

*2015-04-04, version 1.0.1*

Does exactly the same as last year's app but now costs $1.29 on top of your $500 ticket. Rip off

### 3/5 — Worth a dollar, but missing live updates

*2015-04-05, version 1.0.1*

After balking at buying an app that REALLY should be free I found it OK, but not great. The programme claims the app is the place for up to the minute updates, but I'm not seeing any evidence.

### 4/5 — Definitely Recommend

*2025-04-20, version 3.6.3*

It’s safe to say that this app helped make my 2025 Bluesfest experience the best it could possibly be. A lot of it’s features helped me- especially when trying to get to different artists I didn’t want to miss. The app tells me which band or artist is on, the stage they are at and the time they play for. It also shows the clashes when I start planning for the day. 

⚠️I suggest getting familiar with the app before you go to the festival (just explore it and make sure you understand the functions) 

Further features that show the stalls in the festival (food stalls especially) would be extremely helpful.

Overall I would recommend! Have a great Bluesfest and see you in 2026!!! 💙

### 4/5 — Ideas

*2015-04-20, version 1.0.1*

Found it useful with the reminders but could be better if:
- recognised if you were already at correct stage
- had signing times on it each day (e.g. About 11am so you could factor into plan)
- had a notes function under each act you saw or a rating system for sets
- opening time on day 1 was actually correct (warned gates open at 12 when they did not)

### 5/5 — So easy

*2023-04-01, version 3.3.1*

This app is amazing. It makes the Bluesfest experience so easy to enjoy. My planner is looking like a bucket list item all sorted

### 5/5 — Experience Enhancer

*2016-03-31, version 1.2.3*

The Bluesfest app was invaluable in planning our festival schedule. It was very intuitive and easy to use. It provided all the information we needed for the four days we attended. We recommended it to some other attendees & they provided very positive feedback. Will definitely look for it again next year.

### 5/5 — On first inspection, it looks great!

*2016-03-02, version 1.2.1*

This app looks great, has loads of useful features and artist info and is super easy to use👍🏼 Interested to see how it handles out in the field. and better yet, how it will effect the masses? Won't we all be walking around looking at our phones trying to figure out where to be next? Then again, that'll happen anyway..
Thanks Bluesfest!👊🏼

### 5/5 — Great app

*2015-03-26, version 1.0.0*

Nice and easy to use, has all the info needed, good value. Makes me excited about the festival!
