Download the App
Download the app to your device. The attendee app is now available for download for iOS and Android users. It has many useful functions for both in-person and virtual attendees.
Log in Page
When you open the app, the first page you'll see is the login page, where you'll be asked to enter the email address you used to register for the event.
After submitting your email address, you'll see 2 options:
Send yourself a magic link - this will send an email to your inbox, wherein there is a magic link that you need to click to automatically log you into the app.
Set a password - this will send an email to your inbox with instructions and prompts to create a password.
Notes:
Logging in through a magic link is the easiest and fastest way to log in.
The Join Event button in the order confirmation email is also a magic link.
If the magic link isn't working, there is a 4-digit code in the magic link email that you can enter into the app to log in.
My Events Page
When you log in, the first page you'll see is the list of events you have registered for and your profile icon in the upper right corner. The event shown on top is the latest. It will show the event name and date.
Ticket & QR Code
You should also see a ticket icon on the event card. When you click that, you should see your QR code and other information about your ticket.
The QR code can be presented to event staff to check you into an in-person event and sessions. This can also be presented to exhibitors to share some of your basic personal information.
Notes:
If you have several tickets for the event, you can swipe to the left to see the rest.
Sometimes, the My Events page is skipped depending on what link from your email you clicked to log in; sometimes, you will be redirected to the event's landing page.

When you click your profile icon from the My Events page, you'll see the following menus:
Edit Account & Profile - update your profile information, change your password, and delete your account.
Terms & Service - review the terms & services of Accelevents

When you enter the event and click your profile icon, you'll see additional menus:

My QR Code will show you your event QR code and allow you to scan another attendee's QR code to connect with them.

Note: You can view your Profile Page once you're inside the event through the People Tab.
Event Landing Page
After clicking an event from the My Events page, you'll be redirected to the event landing page. This screen is equivalent to viewing the Event Landing Page through a browser. When the event is already open, the Enter Event button at the bottom is clickable, but it's going to be grayed out if it's not yet open.
While on this page, you have these options:
Check out the event description and other information, such as the venue map, location, and organizer name.
Check out the speakers' profiles and see what sessions they are hosting
Review the list of sponsors and exhibitors
Enter the event if the event is already open by clicking the button at the bottom of the screen.
Inside the Event
Once you click the Enter Event button, you will be taken to the lobby. There are many different buttons and menus you'll see that will allow you to move around to the different areas of the event such as your notifications, sessions, lounges, people, expo, and more.
Let's start with the top and bottom menus.
Top Navigation
At the top of the screen, you'll see 3 icons visible when you access any of the main menus at the bottom.
Bell - click this to see your notifications (welcome video, meeting requests, event push notifications)
Chat - lets you access all the chat rooms for sessions and lounges you've joined. You will only see the booth chat rooms if you've joined and chatted in the booth through a browser. You can also see your direct messages to other attendees here and send messages from here without being inside the session or accessing the attendees' profiles.
Profile - this allows you to edit your profile information and settings.
Bottom Navigation
At the bottom of the screen, you'll see 5 menus that will take you to other event areas.
Note: These buttons may be relabeled by the event organizer, but will still have the same function. Some menus can also be hidden from the attendee app if the feature will not be used for the event.
Lobby Menu
When you enter the event, you will land in the Lobby. On top, you'll see the event name and date, and when you click that card with the banner image, you can view the event's description.
In the middle of the screen, you'll see several cards or buttons to click to see the information or action behind it.
Important Notes:
These buttons in the middle may be relabeled by the event organizer and some can also be hidden from the attendee app if the feature will not be used for the event. Custom buttons can also be added.
The only middle button that cannot be hidden is the QR Scan button.
The buttons that cannot be renamed are Main Stage Sessions, My Meetings, and QR Scan. |  |
