Naperville Ribfest visitors can track all the latest information at their fingertips with the Ribfest iPhone 2.0 app available for IOS devices at Apple’s app store and, for the first time, the new Android version at Google Play.
Last year, Ribfest launched the iPhone app, developed by Lextech in Lisle, Illinois, with much success. “The response was very positive and we got a kick out of people using the map feature at the festival,” said Paul Feith, President of Paul Gregory Media and Ribfest Marketing Team member. Not wanting Android users to miss the fun, Feith has a Ribfest app for them too.
The Ribfest App lets visitors customize their schedule with their favorite bands and special events; follow their favorite bands on social media channels; receive a complete schedule of all special and family fun events; get info and menu items from Ribfest Ribbers; use the Ribfest maps to get details on every vendor and expo booth and light up the night with a virtual torch flame that’s not too hot to handle.
Working out the app’s kinks from last year has been top priority for Feith. “The app has been redesigned from the ground up to allow Ribfest officials to create and update content in real-time,” said Feith. “This allows us to push schedule changes and revised listings without requiring a new download. The interface has been overhauled as well, allowing for a more familiar app experience on both IOS and Android platforms.”
