Semi-useful
Not being able to view 2D maps and zoom in to see booth numbers and exhibitor names killed usability of the app by 50%.

Does not load past the splash screen
CES 2026 APP a little better than 2025
Still bad, still crashes every 1-2 minutes, and still missing keys features.
Still no ability to add notes to the companies you favorite and plan to visit
Still no way to go forward/backward in detail view of an exhibitor list. You always have to exit back to the main list (which usually crashes after you do it 3-4 times). Large waist of time when researching exhibitors.
Still no links or menu to the CES Daily. But they added copilot 🤷🏻♂️
But glad that the pushing of the ads each time you open the app is gone and it's a little faster.
So I've gone from 1 star to 3 stars.

You’d think they would have a decent app by now
How many decades have they been doing CES?
App crashed while browsing
It crashed while just viewing company info.
Login
Can’t even login after changing PW 3 times. Even called support but no help !
Map causes crashes
Trying to favorite vendors causes the app to freeze for a minute unless you restart the app. The interactive map repeatedly crashes.
Disaster
The app doesn’t work! I’ve been trying for hours to login, but no matter what I do it doesn’t work. Ridiculous…
Badge issues
I paid $250 for session but I cannot go
Why does it always break??
I just spent an hour creating new logins and pwds, synching across systems, browsers and devices because app can’t log me into my account; but going webpage works just fine.. for the biggest tech show of the year, this should be table stakes and yet I struggle every year with a mediocre, discardable app

My first CES
Shockingly good app for one convention…
Not working in IOS 26
This updated version broke the earlier version and now is not working in new IOS 26
Perfect tool
Thanks
Update is bad
After the last update, the app crashes on open. Worked perfectly prior. Claims to work on iOS 17 or later, I have 18.xxx. Hoping it’s updated with the proper fix before CES2026
App stopped working
The app just told me to update to maintain optimal function. I did so, and now it won’t even open.
Constant Ads on EVERY view of the app!
The app has improved and was helpful in scheduling sessions. However it was ruined by the intense Panasonic full page ads which showed up on every entry into the app. Even if I just switch over to another app and then back again.
Please consider customer experience next time when deciding on ad strategy. Seriously!

Panasonic Adware!!!
This app is totally useless.
Let me see...
1. Keeps pushing a Panasonic Ad every time you need to use the app
2. Pushes the Panasonic Ad when your searching for a company
3. Pushed the Panasonic Ad when using the map to find a company
Then you need to start everything over!
4. No ability to add notes to the companies you favorite and visit
5. No links or menu to t HR e CES Daily
6. No link to PDF Maps that you can use to find companies
7. No links to PDF maps that show you the different technology sections
Once again the hinders the ability to get the most out of CES.

Mind blowing experience
The average human brain is incapable of processing everything that is available
Lack of scheduling abilities
So I thought the app would be smart considering the CES show hype, but to set up my pre-arranged meetings with venders, I found that it is not capable of. You can only schedule key-note types of events which doesn’t help me. There should be the ability to have the schedule linked to the maps so that you can easily plot out your days so that they are considering moving from one place to another to prevent wasting time hopping around. What a disappointment. And if this feature is available, why wouldn’t there be a tutorial to follow? Seems like a massively missed opportunity and a let down. Makes me wonder who the brains are behind this event. Also I heard many comments from others about the new innovation companies but how to distinguish those new companies from older companies? Start ups often have great new ideas I am interested to hear, but how to find them? There is no clear heading or searchable way… another disappointment..

Still Has a Crippled Search Feature, Cannot Search the Vital “ About” Field! Worst Event App
Last year I and many others complained about the many gaps in this app, especially the crippled search feature that cannot search the most important exhibitor info in the “About” field. How does the CES Show ironically have such a primitive app??
For example, if you want to find companies dealing with electronic rings, companies whose description mentions rings a dozen times won’t shore up based on that description. If they use “ring” in their corporate name, Ok. But even then, you will get hundreds of bogus hits because it will find every company whose category includes “Manufacturing” because that word contains the for letters “ring”. Ridiculous.
For someone trying to find new companies whose name you don’t yet know, abandon hope with this app and just wander up and down aisle after aisle hoping to bump into that needle in a haystack like our ancient caveman ancestors did.
