To network with other attendees by sharing your contact information, you’ll first
need to make your profile visible on the attendee list.
Here’s how:
Log in to the app.
Tap the Attendees icon.
Tap the silhouette icon in the top right. Tap Show on Attendee List if you see the option. Tap OK to confirm. If you see the “Hide on Attendee List” option instead, tap Cancel. This means you are already on the list!
Tap on someone’s name to access their profile. Then tap Add Contact to request their contact information. They’ll receive a notification to accept or decline. Remember, every time you request someone’s contact information, and they accept, they’ll receive yours too.

In-app appointments allow you to schedule time with other attendees or exhibitors
to meet up for coffee, talk about your product, or follow-up on that workshop you
just attended.
To do this:
From the side nav, tap “Appointments”.
Tap “Add Appointment”.
Create an appointment by adding a title, location, and time.
Tap “Invitees” to find attendees to add to your appointment.
Tap the back arrow to return to the Add Appointment screen.
Tap “Create”. When you come back to your Appointments page, you’ll be able to see who has accepted, who has declined, and who hasn’t responded yet. If they’re taking too long to respond, send them a 1:1 message to make sure they see the appointment.

On your event’s home screen, tap the Activity Feed icon.
Tap “Post” at the top of the screen.
Write your post.
If you tap Add Photo, your camera will open, and you can either take a picture or select a photo from your gallery to add to your post.
Tap Share. Your post may take a couple of moments to appear on the Event Feed. For the impatient among us, swipe down to refresh the feed. See a post that stands out to you? You can leave a like by tapping the heart icon, or comment on it by tapping the speech bubble.
