## Review summary

Users praise Newport Folk for its clean design, readable schedule, and helpful planning features, but repeatedly report stability and data issues after updates, including crashes, data not loading, and mis-timed schedules. Orientation problems also affect landscape view. The app is a strong festival companion when functioning, but reliability fixes are needed to meet user expectations.

- Useful extras like a play button linking to a YouTube song for quick artist previews.

### Cons

- App crashes on launch or won’t open after updates.

- Times and schedules can be off by hours, with alerts arriving late or inaccurately.
- Landscape orientation issues (some schedules swap or don’t display correctly).
