Congress App Help

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the app only compatible with the most recent version of iOS, macOS, visonOS or tvOS?

Since the app is not a commercial product (it’s build entirely in my spare time) developing, maintaining and especially testing the app for multiple iOS versions is just to much work.

Which devices are supported

iPhone, iPad, Apple Vision Pro, Macs and Apple TV if they run the most recent version of Apples OSs.

Which languages is the app available in?

English and German

What are the data sources?

There are two main data sources:

• Schedule date from the official Hub Fahrplan schedule.json API
• Live & VoD video streams from the media.ccc.de API

The data is cached in a middleware system. Silent push notifications trigger a data update if required.

Why is it not syncing my Hub favorites?

This planned but not yet completed. Stay tuned.

Is the app open source?

Currently not for various reasons, one of which is time for me to maintain an open source project. That might change at some point but no promises.
