Case study · Events

A conference in your pocket, run by the organisers.

An event app with agenda, speakers, sponsors, polls and questions, plus an admin inside the app so organisers edit on the day.
Client
MEECON

Events
What we built
Event app for attendees with a built in organiser admin, and its API.
Platform
Flutter app for iOS and Android, Node.js API with Firebase notifications.

In short

Meecon puts the whole conference on a phone: events and sub events, speakers, sponsors, live polls and audience questions. The unusual part is the admin, which lives in the same app, so an organiser can change a session or add a speaker from the floor.

The brief

Conferences change on the day.

A printed agenda is wrong by lunchtime. The app had to be editable by the organisers, from the venue, without a laptop.

What had to be true

  • Everything an attendee needs

    Events, sub events, speakers, sponsors, about us.
  • Two way, not a brochure

    Live polls and audience questions during sessions.
  • Edit from the floor

    An admin inside the app for events, speakers, sponsors, polls and questions.
  • Tell people when it changes

    Push notifications through Firebase.

What we did

We put the organiser in the attendee app.

One codebase, two roles, so changes made backstage appear in the hall.
01

Attendee screens

Agenda with sub events, speaker and sponsor pages, polls and questions.

The brochure, live.

02

Organiser admin in app

Add and edit events, sub events, speakers, sponsors, polls and questions from a phone.

No laptop needed.

03

Notifications

Firebase push so a moved session reaches attendees in time.

Changes travel.

What changed

An agenda that is right all day.

What the app changes for an event team.

In app

organiser admin for sessions, speakers and sponsors

Live

polls and questions during talks
