### 4/5 — Sometimes glitchy

*2026-07-15, version 3.10.1*

Sometimes the app doesn’t actually list all the events (ie- someone just sent me a link to a show on August 1st in my city, but when I check the events list, this event doesn’t appear.)

### 2/5 — Haphazard

*2026-06-06, version 3.9.0*

Some cities allow to filter by genre, others don’t and then a few months later I can no longer filter where I once could

### 3/5 — Stuck in log-in loop and cannot purchase tickets

*2026-05-13, version 3.7.1*

Tried it in my app and browsers for at least 10 times across multiple days. Please make the experience better it’s very annoying

### 3/5 — Missing features

*2026-03-30, version 3.4.5*

The app generally works fibe but I miss several important features on the event list that make me use the web version instead.
1) On the list of all events, it doesn’t show posters. You have to open every individual event to see the poster. On the mobile browser you can trigger to show posters by using the “request desktop version” and zooming out a bit, which is not that bad. Maybe if the mobile app showed posters it would give people more incentive to use it. 
2) On the list of all events, lineup for each event only first one line and is cut by three dot. Isn’t it an important detail to show? You need to click every signle individual event to see the full lineup. Would be nice if it didn’t cut the lineup and could show like 3-4 lines of the lineup. Web version cuts the lineup at the end of the second line, while mobile version cuts it on the first line.
3) On the event page, there is no genre category. I look at it to have a quick glance what the event is going to sound like. Mobile app is unfortunately missing it.

~~~ Other missing features:
4) Event pages miss embeds. Could they be included simply as links? Would be cool if soundcloud links opened in the soundcloud app.
5) Profile pages miss social pages links.

### 1/5 — Why are you glitching?

*2026-03-06, version 3.4.3*

I would love to have a smooth user experience but every time I’ve opened this app it glitches.

### 1/5 — Je déconseille.

*2026-03-01*

Ne permet pas les revente de son ticket, avant que l’event soit complet. Contrairement à d’autres distributeurs.

### 4/5 — Uber not working

*2026-02-21, version 3.4.2*

Wrong adresses with uber

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-02-14, version 3.4.2*

This app is so awful. Not user-friendly at all. The user experience team needs to go back to school.

### 1/5 — Stupid to have to install an app to buy event tickets

*2026-02-13, version 3.4.2*

Why can’t I just buy the tickets for events without signing up for an account? Then why once I have the tickets can I only access them through this specific app, no add to wallet option or even a pdf link sent to email. Only able to access purchased tickets on this data farming app. So inconvenient and irritating.

### 3/5 — Problem with artists following

*2026-02-11*

It’s too bad that there is no place to find all the artists that we are following and that they don’t appear in events suggested for you. Artists following is useless although it would be super convenient to be able to check when and where our favorite artists are performing

### 1/5 — Worst UI for country change

*2026-02-10, version 3.4.2*

It’s extremely bad UX for changing country or selecting another city. There’s no search bar and you have to select and apply! Some genius at work.

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2026-01-27, version 3.4.2*

Good for finding cool local wherever in the world you are but very annoying that Apple Pay doesn’t work.

### 2/5 — Won’t let me buy tickets and always logs me out

*2025-12-23, version 3.3.0*

I don’t know if this issue is specific to me but it always logs me out and never allows me to buy tickets. Other than that good for finding events.

### 1/5 — Umständlich

*2025-12-04*

Wenn man ein Ticket kauft sind sie nicht in der Lage dieses einem entspannt und ganz normal nach der Zahlung per Mail zu senden. 
Man muss die App runterladen und sich dann anmelden (also bei einem konzerteinlass und schön noch das Passwort erinnern). Absolut nicht nötig keine Ahnung was der Rest kann, aber auch keine Lust es rauszufinden. Ciao

### 1/5 — bunch of pests

*2026-08-07, version 4.0.1*

why do you make me fill in 100 forms and give you all my information then make me download an app, and change my location just to view tickets? please learn how to make a proper app

### 1/5 — The worst concert app maybe ever

*2026-07-17, version 3.10.1*

Looks like it was coded by a toddler. The UI literally breaks when you move it around, the site itself doesn’t work properly if you don’t have the app and the verification emails will result in errors not allowing you to log in or access your tickets, until you download the app which will also not allow you to to log in if you have already purchased tickets online. Maybe the worst thing ever created in terms of digital ticket guides and just all around terrible app that does not work.

### 1/5 — Tries to force you to download app to view your ticket

*2026-06-07, version 3.9.0*

Title

### 1/5 — Missed a show

*2026-06-02, version 3.8.0*

This app wouldn’t let me get tickets to a free show for some reason. It wasn’t sold out. Trash app. Trash website

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2026-05-23, version 3.8.0*

I was forced to download this app to get my tickets instead of getting a PDF download option.

### 1/5 — As bad as the big companies

*2026-05-21, version 3.8.0*

Charging an admin fee when to issue a refund when an event is cancelled. Anyone but RA.

### 1/5 — あまりイベントは乗ってない

*2026-04-11, version 3.5.0*

### 1/5 — Scam à fuir

*2026-03-28*

Cette application est totalement du scam attention à vous je me suis fait arnaquer sur une place de concert

### 1/5 — Privacy much ?

*2026-03-27, version 3.4.5*

Privacy much ?

### 1/5 — Events listing bug

*2026-03-13, version 3.4.4*

For the past month or so, the app has been showing me events from the night before or even earlier that week.

Doubt it’s intentional. Quite annoying as scrolling down to the current day only gives a very limited list of what’s happening.

### 5/5 — Gut, einige Features fehlen mir die ich offensichtlich finde...

*2025-07-13*

Kalender Export,
Besserer Feed mit Filter Optionen der Likes und artists. 
Push Wenn artist denen ich folge in meiner Region angekündigt werden. 
UI/Menüführung braucht viele clicks. 
Tolle App und für meine Region endlich relativ vollständig.
