2021 bbcon app?

Heather MacKenzie · October 2021

So I was just poking around my app store to see if there's a 2021 bbcon events app, and there's not, and I also have no update for the one that's on my phone. Are we just using the website this year? Or what name do I look under to find the app? (Yes, I've already searched here and the FB group to try to find out… and couldn't)

I'm working on my calendar today and noticed this in one of the descriptions: Showcases and Roundtables will be available to add to your schedule starting October 8 when we launch bbcon 2021 Virtual.

So hopefully in a few days!

Hi @Heather MacKenzie and Amy Dana,

I will ask around and see what I can find out about the app. Thanks for bringing this up!

(Amy, I have put in a personify case to fix because the @mention feature doesn't pull up your name.)

Hi @Heather MacKenzie and Amy Dana,

I don't have a cut and dry answer, but here is what I found out: Beginning this week before the event, attendees will receive details on how to access bbcon 2021 Virtual. Your login credentials will be provided with this information. We’ll share additional platform tips and tricks to help you navigate through the full Conference experience. You'll have the ability to build a personal schedule and save speakers and more as favorites in your attendee profile.

We'll learn more soon!

Thanks for the info, Elizabeth!

Also, I wasn't able to tag your name. Maybe the system is on vacation this week?

Amy,

Your Welcome. Yes, the personify developers just don't even try to fix my name anymore. For some reason there are spaces in my user name that the system automatically puts in and we can't figure out where. I just have to try my best to read every notification in hopes I don't miss anything.

Hope to see you the bbcon virtual platform next week!
