Questions

Frequently asked questions

What is Conference Buddy?

An independent guide to conference weeks. It puts the official sessions and the side events around them in one reviewed list, so you can find the ones that fit your goals and build your schedule. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or operated by the conferences it covers.

Is it free?

Yes. Signing up is free, and nothing in Conference Buddy is paid today. Some events charge for tickets; that is set by each host.

Do I need an account?

Not to look around. Without an account you can see event titles and how many events are listed. A free account shows each event in full (date, time, venue, who it is for and how to get in) and lets you save events and get recommendations matched to you.

How do events get approved?

Every event is reviewed by our team before it appears. Events people submit start as pending and are not shown to anyone until a moderator approves them. Dates, places and access come from the listing, and events drop out of the count once they have ended.

How do saving and scheduling work?

Tap Add to my schedule on any event to save it to My Schedule. If it overlaps something you already saved, you are told before you commit. You can add one event to your calendar, or export your whole schedule as a calendar file.

You can also turn on App notifications in Settings to get a reminder on your device an hour before each event you save.

Can I add it to my phone?

Yes, it installs from your browser, with no app store. On iPhone use Safari: Share, then Add to Home Screen. On Android use Chrome: the three dot menu, then Install app. See the step by step guide.

What data do you keep?

What you tell us in your profile and onboarding (such as your name, role, company, city and goals), the events you save, and how you use the app, so recommendations fit you. You can delete your account in Settings; your profile, schedule and saved conferences are then removed. Read how we handle your data.
