Help with the Summitware Events app

Summitware Events is the companion app for attendees of a congress run on Registration Town. It shows the programme, the faculty, the sessions you starred and the practical information for the event you are attending.

Who to ask

About the congress

The programme, your registration, tickets, invoices, certificates or access to a session. We host the software, but the organisers run the event and hold your registration.

Their contact details are in your registration confirmation email.

About the app

It will not open an event, it crashes, notifications do not arrive, or something looks broken. Tell us your phone model and what happened, and we will help.

Getting started

  1. Find your event code

    It is in the registration confirmation email the organisers sent you, together with a link and a QR code for the event.

  2. Open the event in the app

    Type the code on the start screen, or scan the QR code with the app. Tapping the link in the email opens the app straight away.

  3. Use it during the congress

    Browse the programme and faculty, star the sessions you want to attend, and check practical information. Once an event is open, it also works offline.

Common questions

The app does not recognise my event code

Check the code against your registration confirmation email. Capitals do not matter — the app converts what you type. If the code still does not work, the event may not be open yet, or the organisers may have closed it after the congress. They can tell you which it is.

I am not receiving notifications

Notifications are set per device. Allow them for Summitware Events in your phone settings — Settings, then Notifications on iPhone, or Settings, then Apps, then Notifications on Android. If you declined them the first time the app asked, this is where you turn them back on. Announcements sent while notifications were off are still in the app.

The programme is out of date or a session is missing

The programme comes from the organisers and updates when your device is online. Open the event again while connected to refresh it. If something is still wrong, the organisers are the ones who can change it.

Can I use the app without an internet connection?

Yes. Once you have opened an event, the programme is stored on your device, so you can use it in a congress hall with poor reception. You need a connection to open a new event and to receive updates and announcements.

Do I need an account to use the app?

No. You open an event with its code, and that is enough. Where organisers offer it, you can sign in with the attendee account you created on their registration website.

How do I delete my data?

Remove the event in the app, or uninstall the app, and everything stored on your device is gone. Your attendee account lives on the organisers’ registration website and can be deleted there under Account settings. Our privacy policy explains what the app sends to us.

Privacy

The app has no advertising and no tracking across other apps or websites. Our privacy policy describes what the app sends to us, how long we keep it, and the rights you have over it.
