NAFSA Conferences 4+

Really needs a map!

The app worked very well for me. I appreciated being able to click through to everything from the schedule to the presentation slides to evaluations but I very much missed having a map of the conference site.

Great concept; needs major work

Takes way too long to open. Adds are very annoying. Messages sent directly to attendees don’t get seen and there is no sent messages place for me to see what I’ve sent. Colleagues I sent messages to said they were never notified of the message. I have to log back into my account several times throughout the day. That process itself takes way too long and you have to repeat not only the log in but the entire set up process and watching the annoying ads each time. It doesn’t auto populate my email too so I have to retype that each time. Once in the schedule, it’s a great resource. Otherwise, it needs major work.

Hi Intl Gal,
Terra Dotta sponsored the app entirely and therefore they are featured many places in the app. Once you're in the app you can swipe the ads away instead of waiting the full time for them to finish. The logging out issue that you're experiencing may be due to insufficient wifi that didn't install the app properly or makes the app crash. I suggest uninstalling the app and reinstalling it somewhere with strong wifi. As for the messaging, a "sent message" section is a great idea and something we may consider when developing future apps! We are currently working to fix the app so that app users get notified when they receive a message from other users.

Great!

This app worked really well for me during the conference. Maybe add an email contact menu to reach certain constituents. For example, I needed to get a hold of the LAT office while volunteering. Maybe it is there somewhere and I just didn’t see it.

Hi Soozeeq13,
Glad to hear that you found the app helpful during your conference! Constituent contact info is an interesting idea... we could potentially encourage clients to include this on their apps in the future! Thanks for the suggestion.
