London Film Festival iApp review

The London Film Festival’s new iOS app is a must-own for film goers. Except for one glaring omission, the LFF app is a best of breed programme.

1. Easy to scroll through schedule ✔
2. Easy to find film summaries ✔
3. Video trailers ✔
4. Displays closest screening ✔
5. Display next screening ✔
6. Live updates ✔

And the glaring omission?

1. Book tickets ✖

It’s odd that you can’t book tickets through the app, as the LFF sells, in this fantastic world of the future, tickets through its website. The app doesn’t even link to the website but instead lists the festival phone number. Who would ever use their iPhone for a phone call?
