Buggy

It’s usually a great app for attending the conference. Love the scheduling and easy messaging options.
I’ve been noticing more bugs in the streaming parts. Can’t seem to hold a consistent stream at all - and I’m on WiFi and 5G.

Full of bugs

Latest version full of bugs and error messages. How embarrassing for a technology conference. Fix it asap.

Full of bugs

API error at every screen

Crashes

In a crash cycle and I can’t get out.
Sigh, wanted to watch the videos

Crashing

crashes every time I open it.

App Doesn’t Work Keeps Crashing

After just 2-3 hours of scanning tags which is the most important part of this app so we can exchange info, the app started just instantly crashing. Even the main stage with 30k people watching the app it crashed during the speakers and they couldn’t get it up.

Can't get past phone number

Why does the app assume I have a +1 area code phone number? I don't and can't login.

Laggy

Nice UI/UX and you can find anything you want about the websummit but there is some issue on filtering. Sometimes filtering not works and after long working with the app there is some issues on scrolling

Dont like virtual summits

Its very inpersonal, hard to find the events and very little value. Hopefully the f2f events will come back as this virtual experience is bad.

Adequate, no more

Unlike many I find the app to be stable but it is far from intuitive. Just about useable as a way to network and message.

So buggy!!!

I can’t get past the page where the app is forcing me to connect my socials. Excuse you.

Can’t accept connection requests

When I receive a notification that someone wants to connect with you click to accept, that just takes me to a page of my current connections without the ones pending. I have to search for the name and add it myself for the connection to be accepted.

Response from developer

Hi @jenna89d - thank you for your feedback. This was resolved shortly after your report. Also, to manage all connections, you can navigate to the "My Connections" tab at any time. If you have any other issues, please contact us at appsupport@websummit.com.

Awful app

Biggest tech conference in the world and the app crashes constantly, have had many years to get this right and it’s still very poor.

Crashes

Literally unusable, crashes happen way too often, cannot find ppl and send a message without a few unsuccessful attempts, very frustrating.

UX is 👎

The app asks you to set insane amount of permissions before you can even see your ticket. No autocomplete for countries, you have to scroll the whole list until you find the needed one.
“not now” button is almost hidden in the top right corner, so if you reject to give permissions to the contacts it just shows native notification and doesn’t let you continue until you find this “not now button”
Meh 😒

A bit slow

Hey guys, once you message a lot of users the app starts to slow down, exits all the time and freezes. A lot of stuttering as well. Otherwise it is great!

Can you try to fix the bugs?

Freezes and crashes during every use

Extremely frustrating to use on my iPhone 6 with iOS 11. Freezes constantly and is super slow, to the point where it sometimes crashes.

Nice app except for its chat

The app looks good and useful. However, the chat functionality is not what I anticipated. You can’t delete a chat, you can’t send pictures or links.. the notification works fine but once you are inside the chat section, you get lost on which messages were opened or not!!

Horrible app

I can’t believe the search ability of the app is so horrible. Especially for a tech driven conference.
It is impossible to easily look for investors based on their interest...
I want to look for investors in seed and early stage and it s clearly impossible to do.
I m going through them one by one in the website. For the price of the ticket this is unacceptable!!! And your help team is not helpful.
Really unimpressed.
