User reviews

Easy to Use

This app made scheduling sessions for a large conference simple and straightforward. I was also impressed with the internal social media - being able to make posts and ask questions allowed people to organize into smaller groups as needed.

10/10, Recommend

This app is incredibly well organized and user friendly. It creates easy access to all your event information, from creating a personalized daily schedule to allowing interaction via messenger between the other attendees and with presenters. Due to the detailed setup, a majority of questions that an attendee might have are already answered with ing the app, accessible by a few clicks through the icons! I wish that more events were coordinated through this app.

Uncharted Learning

Whova app made navigating the conference easy. All
Information was easy to access. Maps and directions to the location, chat and message feature were very useful

desktop web app blocked on ipad

user-hostile and it makes it difficult if not impossible to view session playback; please respect the desktop setting

Ken Whittaker

I have used the Whova app at every NASRO conference I’ve attended. The app is easy to use and responsive. You can see facility maps, speaker rooms, catch up with folks, add and answer surveys, keep track of your classes. Also, the NASRO folks really know how to use the app/ you ask a question it is answered immediately, a great all around app for conferences.
