SXSW® GO - 2025 Event Guide for Android

Please let me see the last thing I was looking at

Seamless and easy to navigate ✨

All the information is here, but Search is missing some very obvious filters. I can’t look up musical acts by genre. I can’t filter results down to the ones available for the pass I bought. It’s very hard to narrow the hundreds of options down to plan my week. Also, there are workers scanning people’s badges and wristbands when we enter the venues. But every show is showing green (low capacity) … they’re collecting the attendance data but the app isn’t using it. It’s basically a decent app, I can work with it, but it’s inconvenient in some pretty obvious ways.

PLEASE, just let me open the app to the last thing I was looking at! Every time I open it it takes me back to home page where I have to click on the “go to schedule” button, tap on my schedule, tap on the date, and scroll down. It would be great if the app would just open on the last thing you were looking at! Sure, serve me the same yellow jackets ad I’ve seen a million times already but please don’t make me start over every time I open the app!!! Also the search should be optimized a bit to include any word/person/place of the sessions. For instance, I would search “ballroom D” and random things would pop up but not the room page where I can see the sessions that will happen there. Hope this is helpful!

One can go to the right date immediately but then scroll endlessly through talks to go to the one you accidentally did not put a star against. Filter should allow time block. Thanks!
