Ratings and reviews

Really nice. Used this during Disobey 2023, but giving only 4 stars because I ran into one bug. In the middle of the second day of the event the app had suddenly cleared all my favorites/bookmarks (starred presentations).

Helpful way to manage your defcon schedule. It shows all the villages and main tracks in the same place and then allows you to save your favorites. When something you saved is about to start, it'll notify you. Pretty nifty.

It worked well for my intented use. As I opened the app it brought me to the current time of what is avaliable. I liked that the maps were also on there. If I was in a specific hotel; I would just hit the filter for that hotel and be able to see what was happening there. I liked the app.
