Live Nation app review
Live Nation
Price: FREE
Live Nation by Live Nation Entertainment allows you to find and purchase tickets for nearby concerts.
One very useful perk of this app is that the app is the ticket. When you purchase a ticket through Live Nation or Ticketmaster, you can access your booking through the app to be used as entry into the show. If the venue supports it, you can even transfer your ticket to your Passbook.
Live Nation was updated to version 1.5.1 in late-January of 2013. The current version has a total of 52 customer ratings with an average rating of two out of five stars.
In the latest version, Live Nation Entertainment have removed the CAPTCHA from the purchase process to make booking tickets much easier. One issue with the Live Nation app appears to be the difficulty removing old messages. This does not appear to have been fixed in the most recent update.
Live Nation serves a simple purpose and I think it does it effectively. The user-interface and navigation are easy to use and I especially like being able to use the app as a ticket, rather than invariably worrying about losing paper tickets.
For: iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad with iOS 5.0 or later. Optimized for iPhone 5.
