### 1/5 — Not maintained

*2024-11-10*

I think the developers have moved on, nothing here is working properly and is confusing. For instance, what is the "Festival Request" page for? It's empty! Well, there's a text input field but no submit button 🤦

### 1/5 — Buggy and confusing

*2024-11-09*

This is my first review ever, but I think this one needs a lot of improvement.
I couldn’t link to friends and I have no idea what the Set Festival page is for, it doesn’t do anything and gets stuck. I was also bombarded by permission requests which was unsettling.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2024-10-19*

Completely useless app, should actually be removed from the App Store entirely. I downloaded for an upcoming festival to be able to keep track of my friends but I can’t even request the festival. I can’t do anything at all, literally no festivals or shows even pop up. I seriously don’t understand why useless apps like these that haven’t even been updated in over a year continue being on the App Store. There needs to be a serious purge of all these useless apps.

### 1/5 — Completely pointless

*2024-08-27*

This app is dead nothing works. Don’t bother

### 4/5 — Great Idea, but no festivals are loaded

*2024-05-26*

App does not currently show any festivals. Maybe Electric Forest can be added before it starts in late June?

### 1/5 — No updates

*2024-05-14*

Hi! I wanted to contact you personally before writing a review but there is no options to do so. My friends and I have downloaded your app but no festivals are uploaded. I wish there was a way for me to send you all the info directly.

### 2/5 — Map updates

*2024-05-12*

Will you be adding edc 2024 to the map? Its not pulling in any festivals, could you at least just add a feature to auto upload a map for yourself if you aren’t going to keep up with the festival list?

### 1/5 — i don’t think they’re updating anymore

*2024-04-13*

was hoping to use at coachella this year but last update was 7 months ago. bummer!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-03-14*

Set it all up with my friends while we had reception and could see each others location. Went to a festival with no reception and the only time the app found one of my friends was if they also had the app open and were right next to me. We all had location services set to always. Would be an awesome app if it actually worked.

### 5/5 — Hey!!! Beyond Wonderland

*2024-03-12*

Hey can you guys please update and add Beyond Wonderland!! ✨🙌🏼 Literally 10 days from now :)
