Next best things

Slow clap for the developers behind this app

Saves Trees

Seems to work just fine. Better then the bulky program I usually have to carry around at conferences.

Ugh

I appreciate the idea of saving paper (even though they went ahead and put a million paper things in the bags and dont provide recycling bins), but without wifi, it seriously took forever to download. Why is there not a paper option for seeing workshops/maps?

Love this thing. Great at Katsucon

I like this so much that Im taking time to review it. Im currently at Katsucon which has tons of events that I want to go to. This app has a nice feature where I can bookmark everything I want to go to and then have it remind me so I have time to get in line and not miss it. It also has lots of other info that Katsucon provided them in digital form, but Im mainly using the app to quickly plan a schedule for myself. Very useful.

Event saver!

One of the best things in this app is the simple way how I can schedule the upcoming events in my own schedule list. For sure, the best event guide app and it is right on my pocket.

Great conference app

Finally, a conference app worth using! I hope every conference I go to from now on makes use of this app!

Nothing new here, ugly app

If youre reading this youre likely considering using this to organize your next event. As an event attendee I can say this app doesnt do anything a printed itinerary doesnt do better. Static maps (Google does better), a static itinerary, and weak implementations with social media. It has a photo stream, but no one uses it. Wheres the messaging? Where are quality maps? App just takes up space on your attendees devices and a line item in your budget sheet. You can do better.

Matt needs a new bra

I honestly believe Matt needs a new bra

Crashed when looking at a scheduled event

About all this is good for is looking at a schedule. Trying to view details crashed the app. Would not recommend.

Poor Guide to OHare

Difficult to set up my flights to/from OHare. In fact cannot get flight out entered. Only flight in. Im just passing through OHare today and wanted an airport guide. Doesnt seem to work.

Currently crashes when viewing details

The app seems auspicious in features, but frankly very poorly tested against real-world content using their app. Id like to try using it, but frankly theres little here that cant be accomplished already with a simplistic website.

Terrible

This app deleted all (ALL!) of my notes from a 5-day professional conference. Received no response from Guidebook support. Attempted to log in after a long duration hoping notes were miraculously restored--forgot my password and never received a reset password email. Not recommended.

Could be good, but...

The app freezes when you go to the "share guidebook" option. And it doesnt just freeze the app, but my whole phone. Some guides will not load, and the form submission option is very confusing. I think the app has potential to be very good and work extremely well. It would be very nice to have these kinks worked out.

Awesome !

This little app offers a lot ! Especially useful for conventions, I also couldnt help but think the little app logo/short cut looks just like Garrys mod

Crashes

Im sure this app would be great if I could actually use it, but it keeps crashing when I try to look at any guide. Ive restarted my iPhone, checked to be sure I had the latest updates, and even deleted and reinstalled the app but nothing has helped

Perpetual upgrade

This app has been "loading" an update on my iPad for over a week now. I cant seem to uninstall it, and when I thought I was able to, it went back to the downloading symbol when I tried to reinstall it. Does it do this for all iPad 3s?

Great app!

I really like how clean the UI is. Really intuitive and easy to use. The new messaging feature is really useful too!

Crashes

Ive got iOS 9.01 on an iPhone 6S and the app crashes instantly soon as I try to navigate

Need Landscape mode

Need to be able to view documents & presentations in "landscape" mode.

Needs better navigation

Looks pretty good but must have way to navigate long alpha lists. Like their own list of schools using this app! Starts at A and then you have to scroll and scroll. Search is too loose and you cant easily get to S items and browse there. Several solutions have been common for years. Until implemented this app is not usable where you need a long index list. Like we have over 400 bios of people. Need sidebar or top button groups.
