Update 1 year later: can't login at all. I was logged in but hadn't used the app in a couple weeks. I enter my credentials, app spins, doesn't give me an error message, just returns to the login screen. Nothing to tell me why. Every year it's something new. Fix this please. App wanted me to login and link my credential AGAIN. After logging in and relinking my credential, no photo, no favorites, nothing useful, even though I can see everything on the website. Does not inspire confidence. Yeesh.

Consistently crashing. Bad user flow. Hard to find where and when similar talks are. Hard to navigate each day. No good map. Only thing that works is the annoying showtime ad that you have to see 5-10 sec every single load, even after having to reload after yet another crash. If you want to build a negative connotation with your brand for top digital professionals, advertise on the sxsw app!

Performance issues and crashes to the point of being unusable. Looks like it hasn't been tested at all. Few second freeze after adding a favorite, this is the basic use case! Still useful but created as an afterthought instead of integral part of conference.
