aggressive Meetup+ subscription notifications

It’s a nice app, but I swear every time I click something, it prompts me to sign up for Meetup+. Click on event, prompt. Click on a profile, prompt. Search, prompt. Honestly there needs to be an opt out. Stop asking me to subscribe,

Could be way better

At a price point of $10 a WEEK, i think it deters users from subscribing, reducing the amount of groups and the variety worth keeping the app. There wasn’t must on the app that I wouldn’t find under the Facebook events section for free. I feel like the app has a ton of potential, but the events fall short because who is spending $40 a month on that?

Horrível.

Aplicativo horrível, todo cheio de travas e dificuldades para vender facilidade cara. Um abuso em forma de aplicativo.

Way too many chances

I’ve tried this app soooo many times, for years. Every time it fails, either because there is nothing of substance or there are numerous issues with logging in.

Broken?

I downloaded the app and it made me do the free trial subscription, got to choose my groups and it popped a survey. I hit the ‘x’ and it signed me out and took me back to the homescreen. When I tried to sign in again it said my account had been disabled for inappropriate behavior…. Ok
