Sched

Can‘t login with one of the known auth providers (Google, Facebook, etc.) but have to create a dedicated account. Moreover, to be able to track a schedule on my phone I have to create an account! 😱😒 I don’t want yet another account for an occasional event I attend 😱

Misses little to be a great app. But unfortunately: the navigation is not human (the position of the scroll is not at the same place when going back to the list view), the list view now and then jumps around without me touching the screen, long startup time that does not remember where I left the app, and storing is not reliable.

At a recent event the app was delayed and out of sync with the web page. Also visibility on attendees was limited and inconsistent. Otherwise a good solution and app.

Sched is fine as long as your event loads all the data into it correctly. The biggest thing it’s missing is a “jump to now” button that shows you what events/sessions are happening at the current TIME on the current day. As it is, the best you can do is jump to a day boundary and scroll scroll SCROLL.

The app simply does not work. Not only can I not open my upcoming event (ComicCon), but I can’t open any event it presents. Tapping anything just results in an error message. Website works fine though.

I’m not able to click on my event and see any information about it. I’m considering not even attending because the organizers chose to use this app.

Don’t be fooled by the slick looks. The app design is fantastic, but it does not work well. This is my second year using Sched and the second year it has been barely functional. Last year, the chat feature was broken beyond belief. Messages would disappear, not be delivered, and people would not get notifications. Information could not be reliably communicated to attendees. This year our conference ditched the chat feature but other problems remain. Profiles don’t update automatically. Each person has to go in and click a button to manually refresh data. If you search for a user the last couple people will be unreachable because they’ll be covered the keyboard. If you close the app, some of the data gets lost and you have to manually refresh after opening it. Every time. You can’t copy email addresses. If you need a reliable app for your attendees to interact with each other then this app is not a good option. If you only need to show a basic schedule and view speaker information then the app will work fine.

Can’t open events. Can search for and find event, but tapping on it to open doesn’t do anything.

I can’t sign in, every time I go to type it crashes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times and it still won’t work :(

App shows event banner, but absolutely nothing happened when’s you touch the banner. Nothing opens at all. Useless.
