### 5/5 — C & E

*2023-10-04, version 34.0.0*

Easy to use.

### 5/5 — Love the App

This is the best conference app a I’ve ever used.

### 3/5 — Needs a search function inside any event.

See title.

### 4/5 — great for sakuracon

*2023-04-09, version 30.0.0*

great event manager for sakuracon. wish there was a way to hide events in the past since have to scroll too much.

### 5/5 — FLASHA 2022 Socio App.

*2022-07-17, version 25.0.0*

It’s great! All the information is literally at your fingertips. Much easier than logging around a heavy catalog and also ecologically it saves a lot of trees! Go green!

### 5/5 — Amazed

*2022-06-29, version 24.0.0*

Im amazed! It is a complete event management suite with bunch of interactive features. Love it!

### 3/5 — Drains the battery

*2022-06-01, version 24.0.0*

Even an iPhone

### 2/5 — Shake to connect, make it a setting

*2022-03-28, version 23.0*

Shake to connect makes sense if you’re in person. The feature as implemented is very disruptive and anytime I move my phone, it goes to the Shake to Connect screen, asking for permissions and STOPPING the presentation. I should be able to disable this completely and that should be pretty simple to implement. Even if I’m at an event, I won’t be using this feature and I have a feeling it’s quite annoying and invasive to many people.

### 5/5 — Adam 2022

*2022-03-23, version 23.0*

Very user friendly & fun!!

### 5/5 — Amazing Event App!

*2021-10-31, version 21.2*

I just finished Anime Weekend Atlanta 2021 and this app was so incredibly helpful and I never had a problem with it. It was very easy to use and helped me connect with my new friends! Please use this for every convention thats how great it is!

### 4/5 — Good app, improvements needed

*2021-06-28, version 19.2*

Good app. A few improvements could help, like bing able to see larger pics (zoomed) of attendees or the ability to sort lists by other fields than the default.

### 5/5 — Groundbreaking

*2021-04-29, version 18.0*

Whether you plan a hugr festival or a small fair. This is the only application you nerd. Furthermore, attending an event in which  Socio is used the experience is tripled!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Picture in picture not supported for live streams

*2023-10-18, version 34.0.0*

Picture in picture is not supported for live streams. It would be really useful.

Also, there doesn’t seem fo be a way how to disable this Shake feature. If you are on the go listening to a session, you will get interruptions.

### 1/5 — Format

*2023-10-05, version 34.0.0*

Non compatibility with larger screens such as an iPad.

### 1/5 — No iPad support

*2022-10-29, version 26.1.0*

Why wouldn’t you have ipad support for events that will contain documents?? I know I can force it to full screen but this is a basic need.. rubbish…

### 1/5 — Yet another app that does not like ‘unusual’ names

*2022-08-12, version 25.1.0*

So to link to event all you have to do is enter email address you registered to event with.  All well and good unless your email includes your name and your name has a non-letter character in it!
People have hyphens and apostrophes and similar in name, which are also completely valid and work in emails, so enter the 21st century and stop using simplistic input checkers!

Cannot use app as registered to conference with email containing a hyphen.

### 1/5 — Garbage app you will never use

*2022-06-19, version 24.0.0*

Conferences try and use this and then you have to give your info so they can track you. Don’t bother doing this. What a waste of time and effort. You can tell an association or some state funded outfit created this useless app.

### 1/5 — Privacy mirage

*2020-11-10, version 13.0*

“We will keep your personal information for the period necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or for a maximum of twenty years’

TWENTY years?????

### 1/5 — crashes

*2020-10-20, version 12.0*

crashes every time during a virtual conference i’m attending. others having the same issue

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2020-10-20, version 12.0*

Not able to open the app without it crashing!

### 1/5 — Unresponsive and buggy

*2019-07-17, version 8.2*

Unresponsive and buggy!!!

### 1/5 — Sam

*2019-07-17, version 8.2*

Probably easier to connect with people through this App Store review. The design of the thing is solid, but it’s way to buggy to actually use. Damn Shame.

### 5/5 — App

*2025-02-21, version 44.0.0*

Love this app! Great way to stay on task and get information at the conference!

### 5/5 — Great app such a shame it is being pulled

*2025-02-04, version 44.0.0*

Really sad to see this app, it’s been great to use. My understanding is the replacement will cost twice as much and deliver less than half the functionality. Sadly, we will have to move away from WebEx.
