Pros and cons of R5 app for iPhone and iPad

R5 app good for

The R5 app is well constructed, and easy to navigate. The cover-flowesque view mode is a nice touch, and the ability to buy tickets is great. Overall, the R5 app is a great way to checkout upcoming shows; my only request is that they look into letting users filter shows by venue.
This app is awesome. Its laid out nicely, has all the features it should have, and is free. I cannot explain my excitement when I found out R5 had finally made an iPhone app. Great job R5, you made checking out shows in Philly a million times easier!!
Fantastic layout, much better than navigating the R5 site. Like another reviewer mentioned, it would be nice to filter by venue, but for now you can just search for the venue name. The bookmarking is a very handy feature.
I use this all the time! Easy to keep track of upcoming shows!

Some bad moments

The app is painfully slow which makes its difficult to use. The app hasnt been updated in over two years and its quite obvious it hasnt been.
