VMware Explore

All i see is an empty search page, asking for a code or a search term. Is there some trick to signing in? Also checked app settings.

The main functions of the App are very useful and beneficial. It’s the small stuff that’s frustrating. 1. Chat section - doesn’t notify you when you have a new message from an attendee. 2. Notes section when you’re in a section sometimes erases all your notes if you leave the app while window still open. 3. Notifications sometimes come in way after it the next day. Again though, great points are around the ease of session planning and maps. Navigation is simple and user friendly. Survey feature is useful. One recommendation would be when visiting sponsors / partners and getting your badge scanned that you have a dedicated section to go to in the App that then gives you more info about the company and what they provide. This reduces the paper junk that’s handed out and is a place where you can revisit at a later date that gives you all the info you need to take back to your respective company. Similar concept to the “Notes” section, where if you take notes on a session, they all go there.

As most us wont be able crawl between multiple buildings I would have liked a location based filter.

Should be tied with gps

Bug: App crashing when trying to load maps. iPhone XS Feedback: Unable to join waitlist for session. If full, I have to check back all day to see if a spot has opened up. Update 8/25: App still crashing.

iOS experience is bad due to forced refresh every time I switched back and forth from other apps. It did not keep session state. Also, please remove cancel option in notes... I accidentally hit that button twice and lost a ton of notes!

Cancel button is very near typing area, and I have lost extensive notes several times. I’ll use other apps for note taking.

LinkedIn integration seems broken

Better than last year’s app experience. This is a must-have for VMworld attendees. Really wish there were a way to sync with the calendar of choice. What’s lacking in “my schedule”? sessions I’m speaking at!

Super easy to use, self intuitive. Very innovative like anything else VMware does. Kudos!
