Still hard to read
Grenadine just now updated, and the stated reason was to fix some color, but I see that it still uses that tiny, gray font that is almost impossible to read on my iPhone. When heading to a convention event, it would be really nice to be able to tell what room I’m supposed to go to.
iPad support could be improved
The app does not support landscape orientation, which is the primary way iPads are used.
Very hard to read
All the pages on my iPad mini have tiny tiny text and loads of white space. The font size must have been the smallest available. Why?
I went back to the printed schedule. That at least was readable.
This is one of those instances where content must win out over graphic design. Tiny text may look good to a graphic designer, but since I can’t read it, It’s useless to me.

Easy to use and thorough!
This app provided all of the information I needed for the con and helped me keep track of what was going on.
Schedule won’t load
No matter what I do, I’m greeted with a message saying there are no events scheduled despite the fact the website shows everything. And of course, the web version isn’t optimized for mobile so I have to settle with half a schedule as I’m unable to zoom in and out to see more. On top of all of this, the app constantly crashes. I’ve reinstalled multiple times and nothing improves. Not looking forward to navigating a convention this way. Going to miss out on a lot.

Virtually unusable
This app is very buggy and is not optimized for the newer iPhones at all. It is plagued by constant crashes and freezes and on the iPhone X at least is near unusable because it’s not updated to use the new screen real estate which translates into more problems because the app seems to just stop responding to input on the lower half of the screen after a while. I am saddened that I am forced to use this app to look at the panels and try to find my way around the convention.

Crash Gordon!
Unable to refresh event data. Crashes randomly, pretty much dead in the water. Very disappointed! Don't think the login applies to me as a user, which makes me suspect I won't be able to use it to plan which events in a con I will attend with it.
Shame shame shame!

Apparently designed by people who don't go to conferences
To see the room an event is in, you have to click on the event, enen though there is plenty of space to display the room. (Why is this important? Because whether you attend an event might be determined by location, such as proximity to other events. You might also not want to have to spend time figuring out where it is during the 10 minutes between events.)
Honestly, I think I would prefer a PDF.

Wiped out my schedule
I went through the entire convention and entered my schedule. Then found out I could log in and sync all my devices. When I logged in, it WIPED OUT MY SCHEDULE! Not good.
Warning! Do not switch phone off
Good app (though I'd like to see a calendar feature to visualise things a little better). However I switched my phone off to watch a film and when I powered it back on the app had LOST all my personal data (in My Schedule). What the hell was that about!? I'm not happy about it because there are so many things going on at loncon that it takes me a whole HOUR to plan the next day. :(

Like offline
I did not have data service so I like that it was working without wifi or LTE, thanks
