It contains a lot of great information you can read before you arrive. The only downfall...don’t always believe that a tent that is 90% full whit the app says, it’s hard to know if that is correct or not. Most of the time at night, all tents are close to capacity no matter what the app says. ### 5/5 — Beer Me *2019-09-22, version 1.6.2* Stumbled across this app, and then I stumbled home... **Developer response:** ;) ### 4/5 — Great app *2019-09-17, version 1.6.2* Need English version. Thanks. ### 2/5 — Language support is minimal *2019-09-11, version 1.6.1* Nice layout, maps, overall highlights of things like opening times and do’s and don’ts. But all tent details and news items are only in German, with no option to translate except tedious cut/paste into a language app. **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback, we'll try to solve that. Best ### 1/5 — Where is the countdown????? *2019-04-27, version 1.5.1* I really miss the count down clock. Please give it back to us!! **Developer response:** Hi Finz2L, you can find the count down clock again, in the top on the left side. Thanks for your Feedback. ### 3/5 — Not as good as the old one *2019-04-18, version 1.5.1* Doesn’t have the count down. Uses your location for event times instead of Munich time. **Developer response:** Hi Rossetta, thanks for your feedback. You can find the count down again, in the top on the left side. Best ### 2/5 — Translation are an issue *2018-10-07, version 1.5.1* Seems like a very good app, but go one layer down and there is no translation ### 3/5 — Not enough English. *2018-10-02, version 1.5.1* Nice photos, however, news is in German. No way to translate into English. ### 1/5 — English please! *2018-09-16, version 1.5.0* I’ve been 2x before and was looking for some indie for this years trip. Some of the pages are all in German with no option for translation. English settings please! **Developer response:** Dear User, thanks for your feedback. If the operating system is not set to German, the "fixed" contents such as menu items etc. are translated. Contents which currently come from our portal editorial staff, are not permanently translated, as well as external contents. We are still looking for optimizations here. ## Frequently asked questions about Oktoberfest ### What is the official Oktoberfest app?
