    Getting the App<\/h3>\n

    For ONA17, we are using the Grenadine Event Guide<\/a>, available for both iOS and Android.<\/p>\n

    Or you can search your app store of choice for \u201cGrenadine Event Guide.\u201d<\/p>\n

    Getting Started<\/h3>\n

    Once you\u2019ve downloaded the app,\u00a0it will prompt you for an event code. The code is simply ONA17<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    You\u2019ll see a welcome page. In the upper left-hand corner, you\u2019ll see a\u00a0menu\u00a0icon, which you can tap.<\/p>\n

    In the menu, you can select \u201cSchedule.\u201d<\/p>\n

    From there, you can navigate to any day of the conference and scroll through the list of sessions.<\/p>\n

    Build Your Own Schedule<\/h3>\n

    If you want to add a session\u00a0to your personal program, just tap on the \u201cplus\u201d icon.<\/p>\n

    To find your program, tap on the menu\u00a0icon in the upper left-hand corner as before, and you\u2019ll see \u201cMy Program.\u201d Tap, and you should have a list of all of your favorite sessions.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    Updates and Troubleshooting<\/h3>\n

    The app will always have the latest changes reflected, so we recommend refreshing early and often. Simply pull down to refresh on the schedule page and any updates will be added to your schedule, along with handy “updated” flag to show you which events have had changes.<\/p>\n

    Suspect something isn’t correct? Grenadine has a helpful feature that allows you to reload the guide\u00a0without<\/em> losing your customized schedule.<\/p>\n
