### 1/5 — Poor search, map does not download and does not show location

*2025-07-25, version 2025.v2.1*

A source of aggravation when it could be really helpful. I just searched by interest and it neglected to show related events (I chose drone related and it didn’t show me the talk today about new drone rules). The map requires a download each time and it takes forever because cell data is poor here. Even when it does load the search field never found the vendor I was looking for despite perfect spelling. Maybe they need a separate app for an interactive app that folks can download in advance.

### 1/5 — Login SNAFU

*2025-07-22, version 2025.v2.1*

Cannot login with new update. App asks to email a code which results in an emailed link (not a code). The link just takes me back to the app to request a code. Frustrating.

### 1/5 — Swing and a miss

*2025-07-16, version 2025.v2.1*

For me, the most useful feature of other apps like this is to look up and locate a vendor. The map takes too long to load and there’s seemingly no flag or pointer or anything show me where the vendor I’m looking for is located.

### 1/5 — Cannot log in

*2025-07-16, version 2025.v2.1*

I open the app, it asks for an email address. I open my email, click Log In Now, and it takes me back to the same app screen telling me to click the Log In Now button in the email. 

Infinite login loop. Tried reinstalling, closing the app entirely, etc. Nothing works. Useless as of now, unfortunately.

### 1/5 — Login Loop

*2025-07-16, version 2025.v2.1*

Typing in my email causes an email to be sent to me with a link that should log me into the app but all it does is take me back to the login page asking for my email to send me a link. It’s a time wasting loop.  Airventure is days away developers.

### 2/5 — Can’t find map reference points

*2025-07-10, version 2023.v5.2*

The first thing I looked for was specific food vendor. There is a list although it seems incomplete as of now. It does give a map coordinate to find them but the map doesn’t include the alpha numeric map edge reference.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on IOS 18.5

*2025-06-03, version 2023.v5.2*

Have downloaded twice. App opens but sits a blank screen. Useless.

### 1/5 — Horrible horrible user experience

*2024-07-22, version 2023.v5.2*

I hate the login process.  I hate the interface.  Give me BASIC. Maps. Schedules and airshow times.

### 2/5 — Still cannot see all times an event repeats

*2024-06-02, version 2023.v5.2*

Unfortunately, the app still has the same crucial flaw that it had since the beginning. The same event, like a forum presentation, which repeats multiple times, does not list all the days and times it repeats. Instead, the event is simply duplicated at different times. This makes it impossible to plan what day works in your schedule, or even find out if you have a choice. You can only, once you find an event, do a search for its title and hope the search catches them. You then would have to add them all to your schedule, and at the end go through your schedule manually to figure out a scheme that works. That there is no way to view the schedule by event, only by time and date, is such a crucial flaw in a scheduling system.

### 1/5 — Eaa

*2023-07-27, version 2023.v1.3*

Eaa radio cuts out sentencing you to listening to repeated adds at a higher volume then the content.      It is also delayed from air show and often does not match air show content.  At what it costs to camp here EAA needs to do better

### 1/5 — What’s the purpose

*2023-07-26, version 2023.v1.3*

I signed up and got my code and logged in.  Then it ask for another code, which I have no idea how to get.  Totally worthless.  Don’t waste your time.

### 2/5 — The old app was better

*2023-07-23, version 2023.v1.3*

The map feature of this app is lame and annoying. The old app had an interactive gps map which was great.

### 1/5 — Requires WiFi?

*2023-07-21, version 2023.v1.3*

The app doesn’t save maps to the device, so you need internet EACH time you want to view a map. Have they ever seen internet connectivity at AirVenture?

### 1/5 — Broken can’t log in

*2026-07-21, version 2025.v2.1*

I’m at AirVenture. The app doesn’t complete the login process.

### 1/5 — No 2026 on the app

*2026-07-19, version 2025.v2.1*

The app has been very slow and a battery hog in previous years. This year I opened it and don't even see the 2026 event there.

### 1/5 — Not worth the time to download

*2026-07-19, version 2025.v2.1*

First not all the links work!
Second, if you want to buy tickets or anything else you have to log back again - imagine if Amazon made you do that.
VERY unsophisticated, and simplistic functionality, you are better off using a browser with AI.

### 1/5 — Not working can’t log in

*2026-07-15, version 2025.v2.1*

Got the email, click the link and it takes me back to the app but nothing happens.

### 1/5 — Link to sign-in doesn’t work

*2026-07-07, version 2025.v2.1*

I’ve found the EAA Event app very useful over the last couple years but the link to reopen it doesn’t work.  Please fix.

### 1/5 — Completely broken

*2026-06-28, version 2025.v2.1*

The app requires you to login in order to use it at all. The login process does not work in any way shape or form. I cannot believe that their tech team has not realized this issue this close to AirVenture and done something about it. This is a huge fail going into AirVenture.

### 1/5 — Unable to log in

*2026-06-25, version 2025.v2.1*

I cannot login.  I am not sent a code in email.  I am sent a link which doesn’t cause the app to login.

### 1/5 — App will not open

*2026-03-02, version 2025.v2.1*

The login function is completely broken, and you cant use the app without logging in.

### 1/5 — Awful login

*2025-07-26, version 2025.v2.1*

I am a fairly tech savvy person and despite spending 30 minutes trying to log in, the poorly designed process still has not allowed me access.

### 1/5 — One of the worst apps you could have for an event.

*2025-07-25, version 2025.v2.1*

No offline map or gps location. Too many things to list. Really bad experience.

### 5/5 — Overall

*2025-07-27, version 2025.v2.1*

A great app and it was helpful with finding and see what is going on so I don’t miss it. Also if you turn on notifications for the app it tell you 1.30 hours in advance.

### 5/5 — AirVenture Must Have

*2025-06-10, version 2023.v5.2*

Many handy features and the maps help as I always lose my paper copy.

### 5/5 — Great source of all the info you could need!

*2025-06-03, version 2023.v5.2*

I have been going to AirVenture and using the app for the past few years since they have had an app. It has improved immensely since it first came out (which is when a lot of 1 star reviews were made). As of now I think its is very user friendly and has been super helpful to create my own personal schedule of events. It is also a great source of communication from the people who run the event because they will alert you to things like weather or a Blue Angel fly-over! Having this app definitely makes the experience at AirVenture much smoother than in the past!

### 5/5 — Works great

*2024-07-23, version 2023.v5.2*

The go-to app for all of EAA’s AirVenture information.

### 5/5 — Great App for planning your OSH Airventure!

*2022-07-15, version 2022.v3.1*

I downloaded the app inspire of the negative reviews. Logging in via the email link was a snap, and now I know my even selections will be saved. I appreciate having a full convention schedule right at my finger tips, and I also appreciate all the maps in one convenient spot. Bravo, EAA!

### 5/5 — Vender & food Map

*2022-07-07, version 2022.v3.1*

In 2021 we only had 1 day available for AirVenture vs our normal 10 day stay. I Love the map feature to find exact venders and found the food map great for the one soft serve ice cream spot. Also really appreciate the seminar list and daily schedule. Thanks

### 3/5 — Awkward account set up and log in

*2025-07-13, version 2023.v5.2*

Be prepared to spend a lot of time sorting out the login requirements. The account in the app is different from your EAA account though you need to use the same email address for the app as you do for the EAA web site. And since you likely have an ID on the EAA site, you can’t use that ID here apparently. When you enter your email address and request a link, you are not done until you continue with enter your first and last name. This is an unnecessary additional step which has to be completed before the link is actually sent to you. That isn’t very clear. In the end, this app really shouldn’t require a login at all. It is just an informational type app and would be best suited for showing simply the event calendar and maps.

### 3/5 — Inadequate

*2024-07-26, version 2023.v5.2*

Suggest that developers attend the event. From how this app works it’s apparent that they’ve never been at AirVenture.

### 3/5 — Good, but search tool is inadequate

*2022-07-29, version 2022.v3.1*

Unlike other reviewers I find logging in straightforward and the maps clear and easy to use. What is missing is a good search tool. Put in “Theater in the Woods” for example, and it comes up with four events for the entire week. A search by a presenter’s last name also comes up empty. Automated index tools exist to make this a snap. Adding one would make this a five-star app.

### 2/5 — They’ve broken the login

*2026-07-02, version 2025.v2.1*

If you’re not using the default email app on your device you cannot log in.   

NOTE:   After I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, I was able to log in.   Garbage design, but it does work.
