We apply recent ideas in Floer homotopy theory to some questions in symplectic topology. We show that Floer homology can detect smooth structures of certain Lagrangians, as well as using this to find restrictions on symplectic mapping class groups. This is based on joint work-in-progress with Ivan Smith.
