### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2012-10-14*

I like the idea of this app, but it crashes repeatedly when I try to use it.

**Developer response:** thanks for the feedback this should be fixed with version 1.10

### 1/5 — Great idea, but needs work

*2012-09-30*

As a conference manager, I liked the idea of how this app should work. However, this app isn't ready. For example, after downloading, pressing any of the navigation buttons causes the app to shut down.

Keep working on it and when ready, let me know. I'll try it again.

**Developer response:** thanks for the feedback this should be fixed with version 1.10
