French Quarter Festival Hack 14.12.0 + Redeem Codes

This app looks nice and it does make it easy to see what shows are going on each day. The food vendor list with menu items is handy too. But, it has a serious bug that makes your favorites disappear. Twice now I’ve gone in and starred shows and food and then I reopened the app later to check my schedule or food that saved, and it was all gone. Disappointing!

The app is useful, but the design is weird. The main page has music and artists as separate icons/buttons but not on the same portion of the page, and the “My Fest” button should be in the dock, not on the main page. Also, the Map should have an illustration of where everything is located with walking/access paths. The overlay with “Google Maps” is fine, but not very clear where the entrances are and how to navigate from one stage to the next, or concessions and such.

Confusing choices for navigation, but overall the app works decently…

App well organized and makes tons of sense.

One easy to find button on front page, hit and get day schedule by stage, artist and time. Make the cubes front center and easy to find.

Throw away stage map. Totally useless.

Earlier I commented about how the App was great for Music but not Food. The Line-up with the ability to create your own schedule is great. (I wonder if it will buzz me with an alarm before the next artists is scheduled to start.)

But the best thing is they added the food vendor list. (Thanks Applitite for listening.) Now you have access to the same page from the website with all the vendors. Now it's really one app for the whole festival.

Why only four stars and not five? Two key components are missing. One must is rotation support. Neither the map nor the food list can be rotated so you end up scrolling especially with the food. I still would love to see location awareness on the map too. But hey, there's always next year.

And speaking of that, can I also throw out an idea? Count down timer to next year's festival once this one's over. Only two days left until FQF 2010.

This app has potential but needs work. I think its pretty well organized and easy to navigate but as Evelyn pointed out the My Fest function has a bug which causes your favorites to disappear which is endlessly frustrating because that’s how we were planning out our day. Also it would be nice if you were able to adjust screen to make font bigger as it’s pretty small. And it would be great if there were more/better descriptions of the music. Hopefully the kinks can be worked out. This great festival is worthy of a better app.

Used the app this past weekend. It worked fine but there were a few details missing. First on the map I'd like to have a blue dot showing my current location. Second when I click on a venue i should be able to see what shows are coming up and what I shows I stared. There was several times this would come in handy. Hope you make those tweets for next year.

I fire this up every year. It needs help bad. The fonts on the events page are too hard to differentiate between days and the times. The schedule should be linked to the map. The schedule should be sortable and when clicked through just add he map on the full page when you click an item. The map should let you open maps and gps. Please pay someone to update this and make it work better.

As indispensible as your lawn chair and sun screen, this app is the perfect French Quarter Fest companion to ensure you hear the can't miss music and find your favorite foods! Wish there were more stars to give it--and that it existed 25 years ago! Can't wait to use it live, but it sure makes planning fun and easy!!

We used this app every day for the 2018 FQF, I liked that it gave detailed info regarding the artists since they are local talent. Have been trying to plan my days for 2019, but app doesn’t seem to be up & running for 2019! Hope they get it figured out, will find myself lost without it!!!
