Not timely updated
Failures to update for new year’s line-up persist months after the info is available elsewhere, creating planning difficulty for ticket purchases and planing. Hopefully will at least be useful during festival days, but don’t hold your breath.
2024 app was better!
This is just an up-to-date electronic version of the printed schedule you get at the Info Booth. In 2024, the acts had a bio, so you could easily tell what is their genre, a brief history and then search the acts by a word, like “blues” and you would get all the shows that had “blues” in their bio.
Next year, please add at least the music genre back to a brief bio so we know whether we might be interested in seeing them.

I didn’t get my free ticket for downloading the app
I felt click-baited by their advertisement of “free general admission ticket” for those who download the app. Never again
Band descriptions are illegible
Practically every band description is illegible due to unparsed HTML characters, which is absurd considering this is an app for a music festival. Speaking of absurd, you can’t bring an empty water bottle to fill inside, drinking fountains are rare and the water is warm and a small bottle of water cost $5.25.. in 90 degree heat. Milwaukee..

When it works it’s great..
Setting up your schedule and laying out the map is great. However, the app is a slow opener which makes it inherently difficult to use with the lower bandwidth available at the grounds when things get busy. I also have issues with it loading in a timely matter outside of the grounds but there are plenty of other variables at play there.

App won’t load
Downloaded the app and selected the bands I want to go see and now it doesn’t load …
No help
They left or than half the artists off the schedule. If it wasn’t a big name it wasn’t posted. There was also a glitch with the maps that made it unreadable.
Crash Crash Crash
Keep trying to view the schedule and adjust my favorite artists, but just keeps crashing.
Glitchy App
“Download summerfest app to get a free ticket” but every time I enter my email address it says it’s invalid. Seems like this is a reoccurring issue for many that nobody wants to fix.
Useless
“Claim your weekday ticket” option fails with “invalid email.” Tried three different email addresses, several times, with the same result.
Much Improved for 2021
First, ignore any ratings that are older than 2021! The 2021 app is MUCH better than before. This is a good thing, because they don’t print detailed schedules anymore.
After clicking on an artist’s name, you can see their bio and then go to links on Spotify, YouTube, etc. to listen to them. You can search for artists using a genre (e.g., blues). You will get artists with Blues in their bio, which will include more artists than you may be interested in, but at least you will see all those that are in the blues genre.
You can look at the schedule by time or place. You can mark an artist as a favorite and you will be notified before they start to play.
You can also search for food at Summerfest using this app. You can search for a type of food (e.g., tacos) or see all the vendors near you or in alpha order.
Definitely a great job by the Summerfest folks on updating this app. Too bad they can’t remove all the one stars they got from the app versions before this one.

Won’t install
I’m sure I’d give it a much higher rating if it would install. It says it’s compatible with my iPhone, but doesn’t download. Fail. :(
Garbage
This app makes paying for tickets such a chore, I finally gave up after three tries and decided to pay for tickets the old school way, by standing in an actual line.
Useless for buying tickets
This app is useless for buying tickets. The integrated web viewer is horrible. Just go online with safari.
Also, the online tickets don't integrate with Apple wallet.

Horrible
Registration process to buy tickets is absolutely awful. I gave up and will buy at venue.
Frustration station
Trying to buy tickets? Don’t bother. It keeps looping you around the app and it’s impossible to purchase tickets. A complete waste of time.
Not a true mobile app! Scrolling endlessly is rediculous
That schedule is visually is very confusing!
LOST $59
I went to buy tickets online and purchased ( so I thought). It said declined, but my bank account shows a transfer of -$59. I called them the customer service was HORRIBLE. Still don't have my money I saved to go so 🤷♀️
