Had the potential but they lost it
I’ve been using this app for almost a year. In the beginning, the community was great—there were more relevant posts and helpful answers. But as it grew, the feed started getting cluttered with meaningless posts. Without a moderator, this was bound to happen.
At this point, I don’t see much value in the app anymore, so I’m uninstalling it.

Enable Notifications to see All Posts is a Bad Move
Have used the app for a while now, and told many about it. In fact, I quite like it. Today was trying to see posts for my company and it said that I have to enable notifications for that. That’s below the belt - whichever PM or Designer made it happen. All the goodwill you have earned down the drain in one go. I hope you change this before I uninstall the app.

Forcing users never ends well
It really unethical that you are withholding users access to post if they don’t enable notifications. I will just delete the app and recommend my peers to do the same. How a noxious is it to withhold your users from accessing community generated content? What are you thinking with a decision like this, why should we trust you with our privacy?

Best app so far in 2024
This app has quite smooth UI. Worked seamlessly so far. Sometimes it gets you hooked but I think that’s good for the app.
The best app for professionals in India
Really helpful & informative. It is beyond a need in my organisation. Everyone around me is on it.
You will handicap your career if you don’t install Grapevine.

Misleading and Unreliable – Avoid This App
I downloaded Grapevine with the hope of finding genuine discussions about workplace issues, but it has been a complete letdown. It feels more like a gaslighting tool than a trustworthy platform for workplace insights. I question the authenticity of most posts and responses—they often seem generated by competitors or an automated system rather than real employees.
Rather than helping users, the app feels more like a way to track organizational happenings. For genuine concerns or questions, I strongly recommend speaking directly with your supervisors, HR, or trusted colleagues. They can offer real, reliable answers in real-time, unlike this app, which seems to mislead more than help. Ultimately, Grapevine feels like a waste of time, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Save yourself the trouble and go for face-to-face conversations within your organization instead.

Great app for discussion of professional things
It’s an open platform to discuss and share how employees feel about their work environment and experiences.

Thanks Swapnil for great review. -Jainam
Need some improvements
Although the application helps in building social network but it seriously needs some bugs fixes like the comments section it doesn’t get refreshed until we end the session of the app and reopen it again.

Hi! We will work on it soon. Thanks for the feedback. -Jainam
Best Best Best app for professionals
I am on Grapevine fr quite some time and founding team have done Fab job. Especially I am here for startup news and anonymous discussions. Anonymous posts and comments which is the heart of this app. That is Feature most awaited social networking. Keep it anonymous. All content is super enjoyable… 10/10 from my side.

Hi Sumit Thanks for the review! -Jainam
Messages not visible
Hi Team,
When someone sends a message, it’s not visible inside the application. I have the current updated version but it’s empty when checking the DM section. However if click on the notification area it lands to the chat. But if you want to go back to the chat section again, it’s not possible. Please check

Hi Priyank, we're fixing it in the upcoming release. Sorry for the poor experience. -Jainam
Great App
Much better way to anonymously network with colleagues and other company folks
Bug ridden
App experience is good and design is functional and new, but notifications are bugged whenever I click I get below error: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'f.findIndex') I am getting this error from several months and I thought it would get fixed eventually but I guess your quality control is absolutely terrible. Notifications are pretty important aspect of any application and it’s sad to see broken here being a developer myself too.

Team, I know you have just started but tech team introduced major bug in app, I can’t able to open any thread. Getting ‘undefined not an object’ message whenever I try to open any community thread. Please fix this asap.. thanks
Awesome app
Works like a charm. It’s simple and clean. No ads. Kinda like a love child of Reddit and LinkedIn with waaaaaaaaay more fun convos. Keep up the good work, devs.
Hope to see more features soon.

Great entertainment with some good insights
A quintessential work app. I’ve loved the conversations and polls. Honest conversation that is insightful. Would be better if engagement is improved through incentives
Fantastic App
Much needed alternative to current solutions available. App is extremely intuitive and fun to use, looking forward to many more interesting features.
Basic functionalities are missing
- No single place to see all your contributions (post, comments etc)
- No way to dismiss notifications (marking read all)
- Long comment list has not sort options
- Comments are not linkable. Let's say someone has replied to your comment, you get a notification for it. When you click the notification it doesn't take you to your particular comment. It just dumps the whole list

Hi Siddharth Sorry for the poor experience you had. - No single place to see all your contributions (post, comments etc)- this is going live next week - No way to dismiss notifications (marking read all)- this is live in latest version - Long comment list has not sort options- we're working on it (don't have timeline for this) - Comments are not linkable- should go live in next version (sometime this week)
Much needed app for professionals
UI and the app user flow is really good. Being a product manager, I can say this might be one of the best app that is going to get popular very soon.
