How do I update my user profile / photo? How do I control what's in the attendee list?

If the event organizer included an attendee list in the event app and integrated it with the login method, then you may be able to update your entry in the attendee list by updating your profile directly with the EventPilot Platform.

      This image appears in the chat, and the attendee list (pending organizer setup)

FAQ

When will my edits appear in the conference app?

Changes you make won't instantly reflect in the conference app. Your updates may require the event organizer's approval and will be incorporated according to the data update schedule. Some event organizers publish data updates once a week before the conference and then once a day or more times during the event. 

After you save your changes, wait for the next data update for them to reflect in the app.

Note: Your profile changes will take effect after the organizer reviews and publishes changes. Do not contact the organizer about your attendee list entry.

Attendee List Data Imported by the Organizer

If the attendee list is imported from the registration system, double check your registration page what options are available to you to be displayed or hidden in the attendee list. Most imports are set up via direct connection to the registration system and controlled from there.
