### 3/5 — Pls fix correlation with Apple brightness

*2026-04-19, version 2.14.0*

Unable to use the app with phone in “dark” mode on Apple, as the app does not adapt

### 2/5 — Jane cadman and this is a big issue

*2025-07-05*

your app is alright but other people biggest concern is a person named Jane cadman and her husband were on the united airlines one thing leaves to another they come across someone instead of taking accountability like grown adults they wanna start cussing out the kid and the kid was black you can’t have someone enrolled with younger people and think they won’t do none to them especially if they are a whole different race they should know better not to do those actions so we’re just saying please take jane cadman out of this program that doesn’t involve being near people she might do the same actions at the airport -thank you and have a blessed day

### 3/5 — Conflicted

*2025-05-07*

Very problematic login and logout. Constant errors adding events to personal schedule- some serious bug squishing needed here

### 2/5 — SO GLITCHY

*2025-02-28, version 2.7.2*

Fix your code. App will not sync with desktop version. App stuck on screens of random events happening now but won’t show me MY profile or MY EVENTS

### 3/5 — No dark mode, seriously?

*2025-01-31, version 2.7.0*

Would be nice to have an event app that, you know, could use at an event where lights may be down so my phone isn't a giant flashlight. 

I just use the web version and a dark mode extension.

### 3/5 — Sync issues

*2024-11-20, version 2.6.0*

At a recent event the app was delayed and out of sync with the web page. 
Also visibility on attendees was limited and inconsistent. 

Otherwise a good solution and app.

### 1/5 — Events Don’t Open

*2024-06-07, version 2.3.3*

Can’t open events. Can search for and find event, but tapping on it to open doesn’t do anything.

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2024-06-03, version 2.3.1*

I can’t sign in, every time I go to type it crashes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times and it still won’t work :(

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-06-03, version 2.3.1*

App shows event banner, but absolutely nothing happened when’s you touch the banner. Nothing opens at all. Useless.

### 1/5 — App crashes repeatedly on iPhone

*2024-05-22, version 2.3.0*

Just as it says, app keeps crashing. Very annoying

### 2/5 — Buggy interface for schedule building

*2024-05-09, version 2.2.0*

I’ve loved this app in the past for making it easy to build my conference schedule for the day or the week. But it has been very frustrating this time because the app loses a key navigation feature regularly, which requires shutting down the app and starting over. When I’m reviewing a session, trying to decide whether to add it to my schedule or not, the option to navigate back to the main schedule just disappears. The only fix is to shut the app down and start over.

### 2/5 — Basic schedule view and constant errors.

*2024-05-03, version 2.2.0*

Finding your event is simple, though it seems odd to show all events publicly this way—maybe that's just me. Login works fine, and the form gave no issues with password manager auto-fill (you'd be surprised how often that's a problem).

The main event schedule loads, and tapping on a schedule item for more details is fine. Actually doing anything (like tapping the "Add to Sched" button) produces error messages. It's effectively a read-only view.

### 1/5 — Getting errors and cannot use functionality in it

*2024-04-21, version 2.1.0*

App worked great before. This year went to use again and I get errors when using and am unable to add feedback to items

### 2/5 — No back button?

*2024-04-06, version 2.1.0*

It seems a bug to me that there’s no way to return to the previous page. The top navigation is missing on my phone. Once you slightly side-slide a session trying to come back and then release to cancel, the return button disappears and the page isn’t responsible to slides any more.

### 1/5 — Buggy and painfull UX

*2024-03-22*

I have experienced this app during kubecon 2024 and it’s very buggy, sometimes no more back button need to reload the app. Developers need to add feature for a better UX experience like:
- what’s now button unless having to scroll down over past event of the day
- hide past event.

**Developer response:** Hi. We appreciate your feedback on your experience with our app. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. To better understand the issues you encountered, could you please provide more details about the specific problems, like the missing back button and the need to reload the app? Your insights will help us improve. If you need further assistance, feel free to contact our support team at support@sched.com. We value your input and thank you for helping us enhance our app's user experience.

### 2/5 — Slow

*2023-09-22, version 1.29.16*

App is slow to start and run

### 1/5 — Constant Freezing

*2023-09-10, version 1.29.13*

The app would freeze a lot. I have to keep on restarting the app.

### 1/5 — Bad App

*2026-05-18, version 2.14.2*

Why do you have to select a conference/event before being able to log in? That's not well designed

### 1/5 — Getca

*2026-02-23, version 2.13.0*

Why can’t we sign up for multiple sessions for a time slot? Sometimes if a session is full, you can go to your next choice without having to search again.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-01-14, version 2.12.0*

I don’t know if it’s a bug, but the app doesn’t work at all right now. When I search for anything it just says “We ran into an error. Please try again.”

### 1/5 — Pretty useless

*2026-01-09, version 2.12.0*

This app is pretty poorly developed. Can’t access prior conferences and schedules and I accidentally clicked on a conference that I have nothing to do with. It auto populated all my sessions and papers. Talk about NIAI-non intelligent AI (assuming they have tried it)

### 1/5 — terrible

*2025-07-13, version 2.9.0*

your app is horrible bro

### 1/5 — Bugs over bugs

*2024-08-15*

- search doesn’t function
- schedule is broken
- crashes
- ….

### 1/5 — Seems pointless

*2024-08-15, version 2.4.0*

I can currently see all the details of my event online but there is no where to log into the online account on the app. Seems a bit pointless to have a phone app of you cannot log into an account on it.

### 1/5 — Nothing works

*2024-07-21, version 2.3.7*

The app simply does not work. Not only can I not open my upcoming event (ComicCon), but I can’t open any event it presents. Tapping anything just results in an error message.

Website works fine though.

### 1/5 — This app doesn’t work

*2024-06-26, version 2.3.4*

I’m not able to click on my event and see any information about it. I’m considering not even attending because the organizers chose to use this app.

### 1/5 — Looks good but highly unreliable

*2024-06-22, version 2.3.4*

Don’t be fooled by the slick looks. The app design is fantastic, but it does not work well.

This is my second year using Sched and the second year it has been barely functional. Last year, the chat feature was broken beyond belief. Messages would disappear, not be delivered, and people would not get notifications. Information could not be reliably communicated to attendees. This year our conference ditched the chat feature but other problems remain. 

Profiles don’t update automatically. Each person has to go in and click a button to manually refresh data.

If you search for a user the last couple people will be unreachable because they’ll be covered the keyboard. 

If you close the app, some of the data gets lost and you have to manually refresh after opening it. Every time.

You can’t copy email addresses.

If you need a reliable app for your attendees to interact with each other then this app is not a good option. 

If you only need to show a basic schedule and view speaker information then the app will work fine.

### 5/5 — Do you want me to

*2023-08-01*

Cyopppo is so nice and very

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2023-06-22, version 1.29.11*

Enjoyed using this app throughout the conference to check in, review schedule, and change a workshop. In addition submitting reviews were very easy. Great conference

### 5/5 — I will get the kids back to

*2023-06-14*

I’m not going back to the office but

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2022-04-25, version 1.25.8*

This provided me with everything I needed to stay on track.

### 5/5 — Latest Update Success

*2019-09-27, version 1.8.1*

Sched devs QUICKLY issued an immediate update in less than 24 hours and all is well again under iOS 13.1.  Thank you Sched team!

(Prior text: My Sched app is now literally dead. Updated under iOS 13, and Boom. Sched won’t even open.
Please issue an emergency update or go back to prior.)

### 5/5 — Freedom Fest 2019

*2019-07-20, version 1.7.9*

This worked great for me! Not only did I see the whole schedule of the event, but also could build my own personal schedule.  Very helpful!

### 5/5 — Problems seem fixed.

*2019-05-23, version 1.7.2*

Whatever caused the old bad reviews seems fixed now. Works perfectly for me.

### 4/5 — Checkin confirmation

*2025-07-23, version 2.9.1*

We have used Sched for two large group events in our school district.  Love the ease of use with one exception.  When checking in for a session from the website, a confirmation pops up.  On an iPhone there is no notification that the checkin was complete.

### 4/5 — Works fine, needs a jump to Now button

*2024-08-16, version 2.4.0*

Sched is fine as long as your event loads all the data into it correctly. The biggest thing it’s missing is a “jump to now” button that shows you what events/sessions are happening at the current TIME on the current day. As it is, the best you can do is jump to a day boundary and scroll scroll SCROLL.

### 4/5 — Could use a map feature

*2023-10-14, version 1.29.16*

I really like using this app for conferences. Being able to see a map of the conference rooms would be extremely helpful
