Good but needs work

I feel like there are some flaws in this app with the notification system. I wish I had the ability to mute people without unfriending them. I don’t need to be notified about every single activity that every single person on my friends list joins. You really need to be able to customise notifications otherwise I’ve resorted to turning them all off because it’s just getting unbearable. There are other buggy things that happen such as the app prompting me to confirm my attendance to an event that has already passed or has been cancelled.

Great app for the people

Love the app, but it's not a 5 because some bugs need to be ironed out and a bit more money invested in usability. Otherwise, it beats Meetup and Facebook events fair and square. I hope it stays true to its roots once it goes commercial. Good luck!

Great concept

Be great if the ‘magic’ link didnt continually say its expired. Be good to simply get into the app. Just let me set a password; not that hard

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. For bug reports and login issues, the App Store unfortunately doesn't give us the tools to actually help you - we can't access account details or troubleshoot from here. For a real fix, drop us a line at hello@joinbutter.co or through the contact form at joinbutter.co. We'll get you sorted quickly once we can look into your account directly. Hope to see you back in the community soon! Butter HQ

Changing States

Hi, I like the concept of this app. I downloaded it because I am moving to Melbourne end of January and would like to meet new people. I downloaded it and tested it on my current place that I live Perth. Perth is locked though which is fine if that how the apps meant to work. But I am moving to Melbourne soon and I don’t see a way to change my location from Perth to Melbourne? It’s just stuck saying Perth is still locked. I would like to change it to Melbourne please so I can meet new people in a new city.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review Jak. We believe this one was sorted for you when you reached out over socials, but moving forward; for bug reports and login issues, the App Store unfortunately doesn't give us the tools to actually help you - we can't access account details or troubleshoot from here. For a real fix, email us at hello@joinbutter.co or DM us in-app. We'll get you sorted quickly once we can look into your account directly. Thanks Butter HQ

Good idea, but limited options at this time

Sometimes you get a group interested in an idea, but you may feel you only resonate with one or two people in the group. Would be great if you could create a side chat or one on one chat with people you are interested in to perhaps plan something with individually. Or add friends so you can create mutual friendships.

Response from developer

Great news - both of these features are live in the app now! You can DM anyone, and add friends and follow others to build your own community. Make sure you've updated to the latest version and they should be right there for you. If you run into any trouble finding them, reach out at hello@joinbutter.co and we'll help you get set up!
