Doesn’t work

Keeps expanding I connect to the internet but have both phone data and WiFi. Nothing logs me in.

Degraded

Broken compared to two years ago due to consistent crashes and even more consistent connection issues. Apple Pay does not work across 2-3 friends phones due to “address not found” and similar errors.

Feature suggestion: allow viewing and (stretch goal) writing reviews. Otherwise impossible to validate pre-performance premonitions without leaving the app.

Poor reflection of Fringe

Don’t use this app to plan, purchase or inquire about shows. It’s down most of the time and is a poor reflection of the Fringe and the artists who have worked hard to get there.

I’m a rare reviewer

I think this is only the second time I’ve ever reviewed an app in history in my 20 or so years as an Apple account holder and this app was working, barely, yesterday. But today it seems to be fully dysfunctional. It’s such a shame as this was how I was planning to build my schedule today and I can only imagine the amount of artists that are not getting exposure due to a result in poor upkeep of this app. At this point in time it cannot be opened, it claims I have no internet signal and won’t let me see any acts at all.

Works fine!

Easy way to search for shows, save the truly weird ones and buy tickets.
