3. If you have used Expo Pass for a prior event, you may need to update the app. The easiest way to do this is to simply delete the Expo Pass App from your device and install it again from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.

5. If you've done everything else thus far and are still having difficulty with getting into the mobile app, perhaps there is an issue with your cellular and/or WiFi connection.
Turn off your phone's WiFi functionality (settings), so that you are only using a cellular connection to the internet. The event's WiFi could be throwing up a walled garden.
Walled garden is an environment that controls the user's access to Web content and services. In effect, the walled garden directs the user's navigation within particular areas, to allow access to a selection of material, or prevent access to other material.
Force quit the Expo Pass app on your phone: To force quit the running of an app in the background of your mobile device, double-click on the Home button to access the new app switcher or multitasking tray and then swipe up on the app that you want to close. DO NOT LOG OUT OF THE APP, FORCE QUIT INSTEAD. Relaunch the Expo Pass mobile app. It shouldn't ask you for a log in or password once you click on the app because you didn't log out.
