I don’t understand the session page…

To view details of sessions, tap the session. On the session page you can see all the information including abstracts, any full papers or handouts for the session (if the session opted to do this), participants, and locations. Below is an example of a session page.

How often should I update the app?

After logging into the mobile app with your information, you should check that the content on your app is most up-to-date. The SBL/AAR teams refresh the mobile content regularly, so our members have the timeliest information. To ensure that your app has the most current content, look for a Data Update Available bar at the top of your home page, and once the download passes 100%, tap the bar to update your app content each time the bar appears.
