## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 4/5 — Great concept but..

*2025-02-16*

I really love this idea. But here would be one thing that would make this app much better. And that would be to enable event invitations to be opened by those without a circles account and without the app installed (perhaps a webpage).

I’d love to start using this with my friends to organize activities, but from where I’m starting, to even try it out, I now have to convince all of my friends to download an app if they want to be invited, which is a tough sell. 

My recommendation would be to make this application system usable by non-app holders. Once they interact with the non-app interface enough, they will naturally opt to download the app instead.

### 5/5 — Nice app

### 5/5 — Great App to Find Social Events

This apps provides very pretty UI and smooth workflow to help you find events that you might be interested in!

### 5/5 — Good design

*2022-04-01*

Very clean design with cute icons! It’s very easy and pleasant to use!

### 5/5 — Really interesting idea

*2022-04-01*

I really like the idea that you can post an event on the map for friends to join. The UI is clean and so much better than the Facebook event.

### 5/5 — Meet Friends on Events

*2022-04-01*

It is an interesting app to create and join events with friends.

### 5/5 — Feel connected!

*2022-03-31*

I’ve been longing to connect with people in person, after two years of pandemic! Glad I found this app. The signup was smooth and I could see multiple events popping on the map and decide which ones I’d like to join.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-03-31, version 1.0.1*

Beautiful ui and lots of cool functions. This is much better than meetup.

### 5/5 — Beautiful app, helpful for event planning

*2022-03-30*

I was able to easily copy events from the post in the activity feed, UI is a smooth flow, logos are cute too.
Easy to use, beautiful app.

### 5/5 — Amazing app for hanging out with friends

*2022-03-30*

This app is great for browsing events nearby!
