Thoughts on the conference
Audio and video could be better. PowerPoint slides formatted too small for large venues. Let presenters know. Captions also obscure images.

The APP is extremely helpful
The app does not allow for zooming and the grey text on white is very hard to read. The text is also tiny. These are basic app design considerations.
I need to see how many CEUs everything is worth while building my schedule, but that critical piece of information is missing from “my schedule”! It’s infuriating!!!!
The practically infinite scrolling of the App makes it impossible to compare the content of the various sessions so that one can make an informed decision on which session to attend. It would be great to receive a printed copy of the programs so one can easily and physically flip from one page to another. In the absence of the above, a PDF of the program would be helpful but nothing - nothing - can replace the experience and ease of use of a physical booklet.
Information was hard to find, keep, and track. Should release app sooner and open information sooner.
Schedule part of the app was very disappointing. It was difficult to navigate. It was not clear on which items you submitted as part of your schedule which other lectures were not. I did choose multiple sessions for the same timeslot, but it did not let me prioritize and then confirm the actual lecture that I did go to. Also, one cannot pick the days so every time I open my schedule, it start off from the beginning. All the background information required for some of the seminars, i.e. websites, backup of materials were not listed in the schedule. It was said that you could download PDFs of the presentations, but I only found one which had a PDF to upload. This was despite the lecture insisting that they had uploaded PDF AIA. For connecting and make appointments with other attendees. You could reach out to them, but there was no confirmation that they ever even got your message. There are no prompts for them to reply to you.
I tried to find presentation material on numerous seminars, including the one I presented, and cannot locate them. Heard the same complaint from numerous others.
It would be best to allow pre-reservation for sessions to avoid the heartbreak of being excluded from an important one.
Continues to not show CE courses that I have signed up for. Asked the APP help desk and they said it was coming. Feels like the Convention will be over before app shows classes
