I just got it in the app store. Search "D23 Expo 2017." It didn't work when I typed only "D23."

I got it through someone else link. Pouring over the schedule now. Basically even with Sorcerers it is physically impossible to do everything I would love to do!

Cool news: They're having Avengers cast signings on Saturday. Bad news: Wristbands are being distributed 9am. I predict there will still be a lot of people waiting to even get into the show floor by the time the wristbands will be gone.

Black Panther is having a signing on Friday which seems slightly more doable.

Also bad news is they over lap with the afternoon main stage panels.

FYI re the Expo app - under About This App, Settings, the Opt-In for Google Analytics was default set to ON. If you don't want your app activity to be tracked, you might want to turn that off. It is the last item in the menu list so you will need to scroll up to find it.

That too. Wristband distribution is at 9am with the Live Action panel at 10:30a. Even if you skipped the Live Action panel, the actual signings run into the Parks panel.

I noticed the lineup for the Power of the Princess panel has changed. Ming-Na Wen (Mulan) is no longer appearing, but Paige O'Hara has been added. From the app description:

Walt Disney Animation Studios invites you to The Power of the Princess, featuring Jodi Benson (Ariel, “The Little Mermaid”), Paige O’Hara (Belle, “Beauty and the Beast”), Anika Noni Rose (Tiana, “The Princess and the Frog”), and Auli'i Cravalho (Moana, “Moana”) – the talented actresses who brought these iconic characters to life – as they share stories of making their films and the impact of their characters on people around the world. Hosted by Walt Disney Animation Studios animators Amy Smeed and Kira Lehtomaki.

*Cell phones, cameras, and all recording devices will be restricted and strictly enforced for this presentation.

Hmm. I can't get the 2017 app. It said 2017 but when I open it it's 2015.

UGH. I had such a great plan and now this (first world problems, obviously).

If Chris Evans was confirmed, I'd give up the Live Action and Parks Panels for the signing in a heartbeat.

Mine is 2017. Yay for it being on the Australian App Store!
I typed in D23 expo 2017 and it came up.
I've never downloaded it before so maybe if you had the 2015 one, it's struggling to update

I had the 2013 app for some weird reason (when I got new iPhone, it went from the 2015 version back to 2013! Ha!) But it upgraded fine to 2017.

The overlapping events is critical for crowd control and spreading people out. Bummer about Ming-Na Wen. Good sub with Paige though. There is just so much to see!

Yeah. They almost never do those types of events so I'd let fiance do live action and I'd go meet Chris in a heart beat. It could have been possible if they had priority entrance for Sorcerer but from my understanding they don't do that so I have to choose. It'll be okay though. I think I'm going to adjust my Sunday plans so I can go meet the Tangled crew.

I'm not sure who the signings at D23 work because we never did them in 2015 we only did ones at the floor booths.

 

[OhioStateBuckeye]

Nah I never had any Expo app before. Sigh. I want to see all the signings! I keep uninstalling and re-installing the 2017 and it still comes up as 2015.

If you have an android, the android app is not properly working yet. The article I posted above mentioned that.

Neither really is. Can't get a proper map on the iPhone one past the first floor.

Lower right corner of the app is where it says Floor 1. Tap that & it will pop up to let you pick floors 2 or 3.

I saw that but when I tap floors 2 and/or 3 there is information missing on those floors.
