FINALLY. ### 5/5 — Long Awaited Idea *2026-04-23, version 2.4.11* been waiting for something like this my whole adult life lol ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-04-23, version 2.4.11* Really good! For boring weekends ### 5/5 — Great app to make real connections *2026-04-21* Awesome app with cool people, way better than the other apps that are surface level. I love how it’s based off shared experiences instead of transactional plans. ### 5/5 — Great platform *2026-03-26* I love the idea of facilitating offline meetups at events that mean something to you rather than never ending online swiping through profiles that mean nothing. I’ve been to the events organized by these people and it was a blast. Highly recommend! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Good concept, but the app has a serious identity problem *2026-06-05* Much of the activity on the app appeared to involve older men seeking attention from younger women, including users offering rides in sports cars. This created an environment that felt misaligned with the app’s intended purpose. The concept has potential, but the current execution needs improvement. At present, the app does not differentiate itself enough from Facebook groups, Meetup, or other established community platforms. While it aims to help people make plans and meet others, it offers limited tools for discovering users with shared interests, building familiarity, or connecting before committing to an event. I also found that user feedback did not seem to be fully addressed. Discussions about suggested improvements were often compared to dating apps, which overlooked the main concern. The issue is not that the platform should function as a dating app, but that users need better ways to identify shared interests and establish a level of comfort before meeting new people. Many of the posted plans also lacked appeal or originality, making established local communities and social groups appear to offer stronger alternatives for finding meaningful meetups. Overall, the concept could succeed with improved filtering, more engaging community features, stronger opportunities for user connection, and a clearer value proposition that distinguishes it from platforms users already know and trust. ### 1/5 — Ehhh not so great *2026-04-12, version 2.4.7* Ui needs work nothing really makes sense ### 1/5 — Great App, Amazing Events, Fun Experiences *2025-11-09, version 1.6.4* Honestly obsessed with this app already! It’s such a cool idea. Meeting people through events instead of just a regular dating app. I’ve already met a few amazing people and had great experiences. Feels way more organic and real than other dating apps. Definitely worth downloading! - Asia H. ### 1/5 — The creator of the app is a demented *2025-08-21* This app was created by a man with mental problems and only uses it as an excuse to get closer to women ### 3/5 — Stricter filtering on allowable posted plans needed *2026-06-27* I just got the app. Such a great concept and looking forward to first plus1 event. However, the app needs stricter filtering on the activities they allow to be posted — in just a few minutes I can see the feed cluttered with people posting asking to be taken to a World Cup game (I.e. a date), or on a yacht, or a canvasser for a club. Beyond that, there are also a lot of “flexible watch parties” or “TBD date happy hours” posted — they are not actual planned at an exact location and date, where they are looking for a plus one. I’m going to keep giving it a try and will adjust the review accordingly, but all of the above are reasons why I’d easily abandon the app. A lot of those posts either need to be not allowed or there should be a filter to remove those out. **Developer response:** Thanks for the thoughtful feedback! We actually already offer advanced filtering options so users can customize the types of plans and people they want to see. One of the things that makes Plus 1 different is that we want to be inclusive and give people the freedom to create the experiences they’re looking for, rather than being the “plan police” and deciding which activities are worthy of being posted. We believe everybody deserves a Plus 1. We also intentionally offer flexible plans. Sometimes someone knows they want to grab drinks, play tennis, go boating, or attend an event, but doesn’t care exactly when. Once they approve their Plus 1, they can coordinate the details together. Other plans have a specific date and time because tickets or reservations are already booked. And if you don’t see anything you love, that’s the beauty of Plus 1: post your own plan, choose exactly what you want to do, and you’re completely in control of who you approve to join you. We appreciate the feedback and will continue improving our filters and discovery experience as the community grows! ### 3/5 — Best App *2026-02-08, version 2.3* Secured and highly recommended ### 5/5 — Great for couples *2026-08-20* Since having kids, it has been hard to make new friends and have a social life. This app has been great at finding other couples to join us for drinks and entertainment. Our social life has never been better. Highly recommend! **Developer response:** We're delighted to hear that the app has enhanced your social life and helped you connect with other couples! It's wonderful to know you're enjoying your time out and making new friends. Thank you for your high recommendation! ### 5/5 — Genius idea *2026-08-19* Plus 1 is such a genius idea. Not only can I use it to meet new people, but I can coordinate plans with my friends. Now they know when I’ll be at the pickleball courts and when I’m playing bingo. The new group chat feature rocks! **Developer response:** We appreciate your enthusiastic feedback! It's fantastic to see how you're utilizing the app to connect with others and coordinate activities seamlessly. Enjoy those pickleball games and bingo nights! ### 5/5 — Great idea *2026-08-17* I live in California, but heard about the app through my friends in miami. Went to miami for business, and wanted to do something fun - actually went to a really cool art event that I found out about through the app. Really cool concept! The host was really nice and met some cool people from different walks of life. When will you bring Plus 1 to Los Angeles? **Developer response:** We're delighted to hear how much you enjoyed the art event in Miami and the connections you made! Your enthusiasm for the app's concept is greatly appreciated. ### 5/5 — Best new app! *2026-06-01, version 2.4.19* I love this app! So cool to have options for someone to come with me and backups if they flake! Whoever made this deserves a handshake. ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Nice app to make friends *2026-05-25, version 2.4.19* I was so over bumble bff.
