The Krewe app allows you to stay on top of all the social events for MS Ignite. You can view upcoming events, add calendar events, get directions to the venues, track Krewe Twitter traffic, check in to locations, and see where everyone else is located.

The checkin screen needs access to location services. It also produces a unique, application specific key to update your current checkin status. These features can be enabled and disabled in the settings screen.

New to this version is the ability to create a profile and share it using NFC or a QR Code. All of this functionality is optional. You can opt-out anytime.

Enjoy the app and enjoy MS Ignite.
