The maps feature was also really smooth, I love how many establishments you guys include on there. I love how you guys keep updated current events happening in the area. I didn’t even know trivia nights existed haha so that was cool to see. As a user it definitely makes me want to visit the app again whenever I’m looking for cool events to visit with my friends. ### 5/5 — Good alternative when I don't have my phone *2024-07-30, version 6.3.3* Says it's for iPad but I am using it / reviewing for my laptop version which is a great alternative for when I'm at work and want to search for some happy hours but don't want my boss to see me on my phone haha. Works almost as good as the app version! ### 5/5 — Great app for finding happy hours and more *2024-03-25, version 6.2.7* This is a very smooth and elegant solution for finding local happy hours, brunch specials, trivia nights, and live music. It’s kept nicely up to date by the team. ### 5/5 — Fantastic for the Foodie in you! *2024-02-23, version 6.2.6* It’s an app that gives you discounts on food and drinks at the places you already love dining at, what more can you ask for?! ### 5/5 — Love it *2024-01-04, version 6.2.3* Well executed on something that needs to exist. Love getting notifications and checking the unique daily special banners. Brought my dog to a patio bar because of appy hour. We both had a blast haha ### 5/5 — Had no idea what I was missing!! *2023-11-07, version 6.2.2* This app is awesome for keeping me informed of all the great deals around me at all times. I didn’t even know what I was missing and AppyHour opened my eyes to all of the deals around me! ### 5/5 — Tampa Bay HH awesome *2023-06-29* Just moved to Tampa Bay and having this to explore new places in the area has been awesome.

One stop shop! *2022-09-21, version 6.0.0* I have been using this app for the past 5 months and love how easy it is to find the best drink specials in my neighborhood.

All this app ever does is crash. There is no workable feature at all, save yourself some time and just stick to Yelp and the other apps. ### 1/5 — Minimal Locations *2026-03-24, version 6.5.8* If you don’t live in Florida you’re better off finding a different app. ### 1/5 — No Local Spots *2025-08-02, version 6.4.9* Nice idea, but the execution was not there. There are no local establishments in my area, when I know there are. The app was also kind of laggy from one screen to the next. ### 1/5 — Do not download *2025-05-26, version 6.4.8* App is extremely buggy did not pass development stage and clearly jumped the gun putting it out on the App Store when there are millions of small glitches that still need to be worked out ### 1/5 — Background Location must be set to ALWAYS *2025-05-23, version 6.4.8* Like the title says. That is an absolutely crazy demand and automatically garners a 1 star. I’m sure the data being harvest are for nefarious purposes. ### 1/5 — App not working *2025-01-05, version 6.4.3* The app doesn’t show anything. Just a constant loading screen… ### 1/5 — Huh? *2024-11-26, version 6.4.2* Doesn’t work. Tried to search all specials and gave up after a minute of waiting. Useless. ### 1/5 — Nothing in LA or CALIF *2020-02-29, version 3.2.1* Wast of time downloading ### 3/5 — Missing Good Restaurants *2025-10-11, version 6.5.2* The app is very nice, however, it is missing popular restaurants in the Tampa area. ### 4/5 — Good but missing a lot! *2025-11-05, version 6.5.4* Good app but it’s missing a lot of restaurants right in my neighborhood. Can’t find a way to submit to get them added. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Nice app *2026-03-03, version 6.5.8* Easy. No login. Gets better every update.
