Troubleshooting/FAQs

  • Trouble logging in: If you’ve received joining instructions from us, you are registered for the event.  When accessing Whova ensure you’re using the same email address you registered for the event with.

 

  • Already have Whova App installed: When you have Whova installed already, it doesn’t always recognise that you’ve been added to the attendee list for this particular event.  Uninstalling and reinstalling the app will usually rectify this, or you can email info@smooth-events.com for an access code which will allow you to enter.

 

  • Technical/sound problems: Most technical glitches (eg no sound, can’t see a session etc) are fixed when closing down the app or web browser window and re-opening again. And/or, if accessing via desktop, by ensuring you use the chrome browser.  If you’re still having difficulties please contact us on info@smooth-events.com   A third common problem is not having cookies enabled on your browser – please ensure cookies are enabled.  Some academic institutions in particular have strict firewalls in place, which restrict or prohibit access to event platforms like Whova. If this is the case, you may wish to use a tablet or mobile to access the Summit – we recommend you attempt to log-in before Thursday 3rd December, so that you can check whether everything works OK and seek support if you are having any difficulties.
