Microsoft Ignite: Grab the mobile app to stay connected on the go during the conference

 

Just one week from today the annual Microsoft Ignite conference will kick off in Atlanta, GA.

If you are preparing for your trip to this years event then you will want to download the Microsoft Ignite mobile app for your device so that you have all of the conference information, including your schedule, at your fingertips.

Microsoft makes the event app available to Windows mobile and desktop users plus to those on Android and iOS.

The app(s) give you access to all of this information about Microsoft Ignite:

  • My Conference - Your personal schedule.

  • My Evaluations - Evals for sessions you attend.

  • Schedule Builder - Put together and modify your schedule for the week.

  • Speakers - Learn more about speakers for all sessions.

  • Conference Info - Overall details on the conference, transportation, networking, agenda, code of conduct, etc.

  • Partners - List of exhibitors, products, services and sponsors.

  • Microsoft Showcase - A list of all of the Microsoft products and services that will be on display/demoed during Ignite.

  • Attendee Networking - Connect with other attendees.

  • Messages - Messages from other attendees or conference organizers.

  • Notifications - Alerts about your sessions or general conference related info delivered through push notifications.

  • Maps - Detailed maps of all the conference related facilities including the Expo show floor and spaces where presentations will be held.

  • Social and News - Keep up with all the content about Ignite across social networks. Also includes links to Ignite website and blog.

Here are the links to the Microsoft Ignite app download on each platform:

This gallery shows screenshots from the Android version of the Ignite mobile app but expect the experience to be the same across all three platforms.

 

About the Author

Richard Hay

Senior Content Producer, IT Pro Today (Informa Tech)

I served for 29 plus years in the U.S. Navy and retired as a Master Chief Petty Officer in November 2011. My work background in the Navy was telecommunications related so my hobby of computers fit well with what I did for the Navy. I consider myself a tech geek and enjoy most things in that arena.

My first website – AnotherWin95.com – came online in 1995. Back then I used GeoCities Web Hosting for it and WindowsObserver.com is the result of the work I have done on that site since 1995.

In January 2010 my community contributions were recognized by Microsoft when I received my first Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Award for the Windows Operating System. Since then I have been renewed as a Microsoft MVP each subsequent year since that initial award. I am also a member of the inaugural group of Windows Insider MVPs which began in 2016.

I previously hosted the Observed Tech PODCAST for 10 years and 317 episodes and now host a new podcast called Faith, Tech, and Space. 

I began contributing to Penton Technology websites in January 2015 and in April 2017 I was hired as the Senior Content Producer for Penton Technology which is now Informa Tech. In that role, I contribute to ITPro Today and cover operating systems, enterprise technology, and productivity.
