10 Ways Conference Mobile Apps Improve Attendee Satisfaction and Event Success

Mobile apps have become an essential component of any successful event. They provide a centralized location for all relevant information, improve communication between attendees and organizers, and offer a platform for engagement and networking. 


As conferences can be expensive to plan and execute, it’s important to ensure that you’re getting a good return on investment (ROI) for your efforts. A conference mobile app can help maximize your ROI in a number of ways.

First and foremost, a conference mobile app can save you money by reducing your printing costs. Rather than printing out hundreds of pages of agendas, maps, speaker bios, and other materials, you can simply upload this information to your app. Not only is this a more environmentally-friendly option, but it can also save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars in printing costs.

In this article, we will explore the 10 ways conference mobile apps can improve attendee satisfaction and event success.

Maximizing Attendee Satisfaction with Conference Mobile Apps

A conference mobile app can help you generate revenue by offering sponsorships and advertisements. With a dedicated Partners page and sponsored posts in the Social Feed, you can offer sponsors more visibility and engagement opportunities than traditional print ads or booth displays. Plus, by offering detailed analytics on app usage, you can give sponsors a better understanding of their return on investment and help them see the value in sponsoring your event.

On top of that, a conference mobile app can help you increase attendance and retention rates. By offering easy registration and real-time updates, you can help attendees stay engaged and informed throughout the event. This, in turn, can lead to greater satisfaction and loyalty from attendees, and higher attendance rates for future events.

Here are 10 ways conference mobile apps can achieve this:

1. Easy Access to Information

The most significant advantage of a conference app is easy access to event information. Attendees can view the schedule, speaker bios, maps, and more all in one place. With Yapp’s template pages, organizers can create pages with rich text, images, and videos to display information in a visually appealing way. This ease of access saves time for attendees and improves the overall event experience.

2. Enhanced Social Interaction

Attendees want to engage with each other and discuss the topics being presented. With Yapp’s enhanced social feed page, attendees can post comments and photos, like and comment on other users’ posts, and even enable social feed moderation for more control over posts. This social interaction helps attendees connect with each other and the event itself.

3. Improved Schedule Management

With Yapp’s simple schedule page, attendees can view the schedule for the entire event in one location. The page is organized chronologically and can be imported via CSV. With Yapp’s multi-track schedule page, attendees can view a schedule split by department, focus, or day, making it easier to manage sessions and events.

4. Document Storage and Sharing

Yapp’s document page allows organizers to upload and store PDFs and Word documents for attendees to download and share. Documents can be added to a specific page or attached to any schedule or multi-track page. This feature is particularly useful for presentations, speaker bios, and other event-related information.

5. Increased Networking Opportunities

With Yapp’s people page, attendees can showcase themselves, team members, or partners by including photos, names, titles, and bios or descriptions. Attendees can also connect with other attendees to build their professional network. The partners page can be used to promote exhibitors and VIPs, impressing them by showcasing their brand in the app.

6. Quick and Easy Communication

Yapp’s admin-only setting for the social feed page allows organizers to make important announcements or share exciting news. With the “Admin-Only” posts setting enabled, updates to this page can only be made by administrators. Additionally, with unlimited push notifications, these announcements appear directly to attendees’ mobile home screens, keeping everyone up-to-date with the latest information.

7. Efficient Feedback Gathering

Yapp’s simple poll page allows organizers to gather attendee feedback in a simple and efficient way. The page can hold one question and an unlimited number of multiple-choice options, making it perfect for gathering feedback, thoughts, and votes. Yapp’s session feedback page is another useful way to gather feedback on specific sessions or speakers.

8. Customizable Design

Yapp’s design customization options allow organizers to choose a theme color, add a custom cover image, and select a theme style to match the event’s branding. This customization adds an extra layer of professionalism to the app and helps attendees quickly recognize it.

9. Robust Admin Controls

Yapp’s admin controls provide a wide range of features to customize the app and manage content. These include custom IDs for easy app sharing, app privacy settings to control app access, content import for easy data entry, and app cloning to save time creating new apps. Additionally, Yapp offers analytics to monitor app usage and track engagement.
