Why Your Conference App Could Be the Real MVP of Your Event 📱
Still handing your attendees a glorified PDF on event day?
No wonder they’re missing sessions, asking for directions, and disengaging halfway through. Let’s face it; outdated comms are costing you time, attention, and impact.
Today’s attendees expect instant updates, personalised agendas, and the same ease they get from their favourite apps. If your event tech isn’t meeting them there… it’s falling short.
In this issue, we dig into what makes a conference app actually useful, and maybe even the MVP of your event.
Let’s dive in.

Choosing The Perfect Mobile App for Your Conference
Imagine this: Conference day arrives. Your attendees are buzzing with excitement, coffee in hand, ready to absorb insights and network with like-minded professionals. Now imagine they’re also armed with a mobile app that guides, connects, and delights them from start to finish. That’s the power of the right conference app.
But with so many tools out there, what exactly should event planners look for in a mobile event app? Let’s break it down.
Seamless experience before, during, and after the event
A great mobile app should support every phase of your event, from building anticipation beforehand to keeping the conversation going afterwards.
Personalisation that makes people feel seen
The best mobile apps allow for personalised features, like custom agendas and session recommendations based on interests.
Built-in networking tools
Integrated networking tools are a must, whether it’s attendee directories or in-app messaging. These features help your event stand out for all the right reasons.
Live engagement features
A great app can help boost audience participation by sending push notifications to spotlight key sessions, launching live polls or Q&A sessions, or gamifying the experience.
Intuitive design
A user-friendly design with intuitive navigation is non-negotiable. If it takes five taps to find the main stage schedule, something’s gone wrong.
Your Event Comms Just Got a Major Upgrade ✨
