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.

It was a little creepy having my full career and education info already filled out. I'm assuming it was somehow pulled from LinkedIn, I deleted most of it since it's not relevant. Also, I don't want daily notifications about tips. I don't see an option to turn notifications off for tips. I just want notifications on for upcoming sessions.

Dear User, Some event organizers ask us to pre-populate profiles to facilitate networking at events and save time in manually filling it out. You can edit any part of your profile in the app or contact support@whova.com to reset it. You can also hide your profile from other attendees in the event in the app settings. Best, The Whova Team

Easy to use. Liked having all events visible by date and having courses visible on next tab. It made it easy to pick up sessions and drop sessions. I didn't have to sort through emails. Registration, session descriptions, surveys and check-ins all in one place!

the event I used this for was for homeschool curriculum Fair. It was really cool to be able to partake in the online virtual booths before the event actually got to my location. With the passport option, I went to Booth's I wasn't normally going to go to to get that stamp, and I ended up purchasing from one or two of those booths because they actually had something I didn't know they had. It was fun to ask questions to each exhibitor, and the group conversations were very informative as well.
