Will there be a SWW2017 app this year
Will there be a SWW2017 app this year
I have not seen any indication of it yet - but last year I think it was only a week or two before SWW before it cam out - at least for the Android version. I think the Apple version was out about a week earlier.
Edit:
Last year Deepak Gupta put it on his web page so it made it easy to find.
I hope he will again this year.
Checked today on Google Play and Apple store and both still just show the 2016 app.
I've heard that there would be "SWW APP" released again this year for SWW17 though no confirmation about release date.
Deepak Gupta Thanks for the update.
Hope they get it (both Ios and android) online earlier than last year (but that time is almost here now).
I tend to think there will be apps for both iOS & Android since the session surveys required using the app last year.
I know the iOS version came out earlier last year and then it was about a week before SWW when Android came out.
I hope they do both - and agree - they most likely will.
I use a tablet and need the Android version.
I would just like it out early enough this year that I can set it up "before" the show.
Last year I set it up on Sunday after the Cad Managers Boot Camp.
Now aday, it's all about smart phone and tablet - Schedule, picture, record - even with airline ticket etc - all's in the smart devices
There will be 99% sure one available from SWW2017
I checked again today on Google Play and nothing is showing up yet.
I don't know where to check for the IoS version since I don't use that. But I tried the apple store and couldn't even find any apps - so I know I was in the wrong site.
Also it's not in Apple Store either !
We were told at an employee briefing yesterday that it would be available Friday. I just checked and it is now available in the Apple App Store (downloaded and it is working). I'm not sure about the Google store since I don't have a Google device.
Thanks,
Jim
Not on google yet
Thanks Jim.
If you get an announcement about the Android version, we'd all appreciate it if you post the dates.
We were told Friday for both, so hopefully tomorrow.
Great, Thanks Jim.
Jim, are you able to login into the App? I've tried with both email and username but it fails on both.
Worked fine for me, pretty nice this year.
Login successful using email/password.
"Agenda at a glance" does not work for me. I have a Samsung S6 and got a VR Gear unit for Christmas. When I hit the "Agenda at a glance" button I am taken to a logon screen for Oculus.
I will try on my tablet (no Oculus stuff on it) and let you know. No problem there - it loads/opens a pdf of my schedule.
All works fine for me. (android S7 edge)
Tony,
where did you find the android version?
I looked on the Google Play site and didn't see it.
Rick,,, I used the voice on the Google Play site. Just said SolidWorks 2017 and it took me to the app.
Found it - Thanks Dennis,
if you just type "Solidworks" into the search box it does not show, but all other SW apps show up.
but type "Solidworks 2017" it shows up.

I loaded it on my tablet and it ran fine. My user name and password were different this year from last year - probably missed something when I registered for SWW this year.
Only problem I have is some of those small buttons near the edges are hard to hit with my fat fingers.
I didn't do much with it but so far I couldn't see the sessions that I selected as "My Interests"
My "selected" sessions show up fine in my agenda.
Sorry I didn't see this sooner.
We were told Friday for both, so hopefully tomorrow.
