What makes Whova special? Whova's technology builds comprehensive profiles of attendees so you can view all attendee profiles before you even arrive at the event or conference. Plan in advance whom to meet at an event, what to talk about with each attendee and reach out to others via in-app messages before, during and after the event. You can also create casual meetups and arrange social activities with other groups of attendees. Whova revolutionizes event networking and significantly improves the ROI of attending events.

You can also use the Whova conference app to digitize and manage business cards you receive at events. Whova exceeds other business card reader apps like CamCard, CardMunch, ScanBizCards or Scannable etc. by automatically building full profiles using Whova's SmartProfile technology. This allows you to gain deep insights into your contacts' professional backgrounds, work experience, passions, and interests. You can also seamlessly connect with contacts online via LinkedIn and other platforms. Whova's business card scanning feature now supports cards in English, Chinese, and Korean.

Whova is SOC2 Type II and PCI compliant. These security and privacy certificates recognize Whova’s practice of reliable, safe, secure, and trustworthy management of user data protection and privacy.

Shocked at all the positive reviews of this app. One of the worst apps I have used. I can't wait for my event to be over so I can uninstall it. You can't select what kind of notifications you want to receive, it's all or nothing. I'm getting notifications for stupid things like tips on using the app. Give me a break and let me turn that nonsense off. I had to make myself invisible so I would stop getting invites, messages, spam, etc from vendors. The leaderboard is more extraneous nonsense.

Dear Alec, We're sorry about you negative experience. Usually organizers decide to use Whova because it enables effective networking and instant notifications. If you don't want to receive notifications for certain categories, they can be disabled in the app (profile picture -> "Settings" -> "Notification Settings"). Best, The Whova Team

Whova has gotten even better! The app made finding people at this conference, and connecting with them, so easy. I also love the way the agenda is so clear/easy to navigate. I usually don't like downloading the apps for a specific event but Whova feels so different. The first event I used it for was in 2018 in San Diego, it has gotten even better. It's easy to share my attendance on socials too. The Whova team clearly has a lot of foresight around event planning and attendance.

I loved the app as it brought all participant under one roof and the fact that you can upload photos is beautiful meaning you dont have to go looking for who took your pictures to get your pictures as they would be uploaded on the app and you get access to your photos. Also I loved that you could create new rooms with fun conversations. That was great and fun for me. it helped participants connect even before the event and informations shared before, during and after the event was good.
