Disappointing
Beware! You must pay for a subscription to be able to access groups and message group leaders to get into the groups.
I previously heard good things about meetup groups but immediately when I created my app account I was pushed to sign up for paid services with the app (not group-related expenses but just to join the app). I wasn’t sure if I had to pay to play or if I could be a free member and connect with groups but after some searching I found out the app tries to monetize every customer regardless of whether we just want to participate in groups or we want to create and manage groups. So if you ever need to direct message a member of the group, you have to have a subscription. I don’t need to pay to find friends and activities. I’ll use other platforms that are less greedy.

Ruined meetup
I have been a part of meetup since around 2008. I hosted many events for different groups in cities I’ve lived throughout the years, for 5 years I ran my own meetup here in Albuquerque 2021- 2026. I deleted my group this year. People are leaving the app in mass. Now you have to pay for everything since leaving as an organizer I’ve seen why. I can’t even see the picture of people I’ve previously talked to in my messages. Before I left I noticed more and more people were just not showing up. Sometimes an event that had more than 10 people would end up with just me there. It is very sad to me that an app I use to love for nearly 2 decades has gone down hill so quickly and basically pointless to use now. Hope they are happy with the “improvements” they made. Would give zero stars if I could.

Why are feedback_attendance_tracking_title and other strings missing localisations for Spanish?
Did you even test the app? This is the first of many bugs
Get out of here with this weekly subscription
It’s sad to see an app meant to connect people charging $9.99 a week, $40 monthly. Y’all are greedy and wack.
