I keep pressing continue and it won’t work? ### 2/5 — Lost its way *2026-07-02, version 14.0.0* Used to be a good app with intentional curated experiences It’s now mostly restaurants and hikes catering towards date night. There are also so many options that it’s simply overwhelming and I would rather ask ChatGPT for personalized suggestions This app is now made for the early 20is crowd who have money to spend. Loved the idea when they used to send a text with 3 thoughtful suggestion on Thursday - I had done a couple of house and then decided to buy but like every app out there they lost their way in trying to do everything for everyone sad - will not renew this subscription any more ### 3/5 — Won’t let me get the exclusive version *2026-06-10, version 14.0.0* Very annoying ### 5/5 — Great new opportunities! *2026-05-28, version 13.5.3* I like the options they give you and how you can find new things to do and find out about! ### 4/5 — Its a cool little app *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* This is one of my favorite apps after moving to a new state. I could never find anything to do but this app keeps me outside. I like it bc it gives u a choice of free and paid. And u also get text alerts to remind you it is well worth it. ### 5/5 — 10/10 recommend *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* The Nudge is such a convenient way to find yourself in new places, enjoying more unique and creative outings amongst friends or solo. Absolutely love receiving tested and tried adventures to add to my to do list! ### 4/5 — Planning for the explorer *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* I love this! The helpful planning ideas this app gives is a great way to explore nearby on whatever your budget is. Super helpful for finding great holes in the wall!!! It is a paid subscription, but for those who find that worth it, it can be a great weekend planner when you don’t have the time to do the research yourself. ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* This is an amazing app for people new to any city!! Could not recommend more. it has given me such great ideas and is friendly to anyone’s budget! ### 4/5 — Perfect date night at *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* I love using this to find a place to take the wife for a date night out or a long weekend. Perfect suggestions ### 5/5 — Love! *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* This app is the best Iv been able to look for things to do so easily since I am not from Austin! ### 5/5 — Great *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* Very good app to give great ideas around Indy! ### 5/5 — Great Ideas *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* The app gives you plenty of great ideas when you are looking for something to do! Would recommend ### 5/5 — Given me great suggestions *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* At first I was a little skeptical about how well it would actually know the city and “hidden gems” of where I live, but they actually knew a lot and showed me a ton of great places to go to. I’m extremely surprised with how well this app is. ### 5/5 — great for date night inspo *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* i love this app!! it’s super easy to navigate and helps out alot when i’m trying to figure out date night or outings with friends. also the texts help alot because you get ideas that are specific to the vibe and price range you’re wanting. definitely recommend!! ### 5/5 — Photo *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* I absolutely love the nudge. I’m new to Florida and this is helping me find lots of cool things to do. This summer is going to be great. ### 5/5 — Nice *2026-05-27, version 13.5.3* It takes the hard part of a finding a place to check out . You just have to find something to wear and a cool experience ### 5/5 — A cute little breath of fresh air *2026-05-26, version 13.5.3* I started to utilize this app because I wasn’t feeling like I was getting the most out of my life. I was stuck in a monotonous state of wake up, work, go home, bedrot, sleep, repeat. With little pokes and nudges from this app I started to see what’s more and more available in and around my area and love that I can pop in and out to see what I can get up to, sometimes for free and sometimes for a small price. It’s great and something I definitely have been enjoying thus far. ### 5/5 — Great source of info to do *2026-05-26, version 13.5.3* I moved from Tampa Saint Pete, Florida, where they had a weekly website that came out with events and things to do in the Tampa and Saint Pete area every week. I was looking for something like that here and the nudge has definitely helped with trying to find some of those things. ### 5/5 — Planning *2026-05-26, version 13.5.3* So far loving Nudge, the options are super diverse while also personalized. Plenty of options to have a full weekend or a chill quiet one. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Sincerely AWFUL *2026-06-11, version 14.0.0* After duping me out of $75, it’s like they went cold on developing anything new or fixing what was wrong with their app. ### 1/5 — Free trial *2026-05-09, version 13.5.2* I signed up for the free trial to check it out, checked my bank account one day and I was charged $75 with out any warning or consent. Do not download this app! Not worth it at all! ### 1/5 — ruined my day *2026-05-06, version 13.5.1* warning: they do not give you a heads up they are going to charge you. I read the initial agreement that they would text me 2 days ahead before they charge me but that ended up not being the case. the notification in the app is not timestamped so I have no idea when they sent that. The texts are also slow and glitchy so I haven’t gotten any use out of them and now I’m down $70 and stuck with them for a year ### 1/5 — COMPLETE SCAM!! *2026-05-02, version 13.5.1* No need for long paragraphs just don’t waste you time. Nudge is a scam. The tactics some people use can be very deceptive just be aware. Only gave it 1 star because I had to. ### 1/5 — False trial reminder promise & limited suggestions. *2026-04-24, version 13.5.1* Nudge promised to send a 2 day notification before the free trial ends to give you time to decided if you’d like to continue or not and it never did. Also almost everything that they suggest includes drinking or night life which isn’t a good option for people who are not able to drink or not able to be in that sort of environment. Very disappointing with the service. ### 1/5 — Haven’t found useful *2026-04-23, version 13.5.1* I don’t find this app useful or easy to navigate. Or it is easy, and just pointless. Doesn’t seem to provide any more than Facebook events page. And I accepted a free trial offer after all their annoying text messages…. And I always check in my settings app for subscription info, like when they renew and to cancel. And this app wasn’t showing up as a subscription, so I thought the trial would just end and that would be that. Nope. They charged me for a whole year, and this app has offered me zilch. I emailed and never heard back. Scam. ### 1/5 — I did not sign up for this app and they took $66.99 out of my account *2026-04-17, version 13.5.1* I did not sign up for this app. I did try the free trial where they text you about events and plans, but I never signed up on Apple and I never signed up online yet somehow, $66.99 was taken out of my account. I’ve emailed with a Sarah And nudge support and no one has given me my money back. I have records that show that I did not sign up for this app via Apple or online at all so at this point, I’m feeling like this is a fraud company that steals from their customers. It is Friday, April 17. I got notification at $66.99 been taken out of my account on Monday and they still have not refunded me despite me not signing up and emailing them every single day this week. ### 1/5 — Pretty sure they shared my phone number *2026-04-07, version 13.5.1* You have to use your phone number to create an account. I signed up for this and immediately noticed an uptick in spam calls/texts. I went ahead and deleted my account after a couple of days. ### 1/5 — Be very careful with this app *2026-03-30, version 13.5.1* I accepted a free trial thinking I would be reminded before any charge, as they claim. I never received any notification. I canceled my subscription before the billing date, yet I was still charged $79.99 for a yearly subscription I never intended to purchase. This situation forced me to open a fraud claim with my bank, which resulted in my account being locked and my card being canceled. This is not just misleading, it’s unacceptable. Many other users report the same issue. Be extremely cautious ### 1/5 — Tricky, scammy, predatory subscription renewal *2026-03-23, version 13.5.1* Got the free trial, was told they would let me know when it was close to ending. Tried out the service, was alright but decided not for me. Meant to cancel but forgot. Suddenly, $70 year long subscription renewal. No warning, no alert, no message asking if I’m enjoying the service. I know they have my phone number! Worse, no way to get a refund! I haven’t responded to any of their messages in 2 weeks. I’m clearly not using the service. It sucks cause I can see the vision of this app, but their subscription policies are sticky, stinky, and gross. Will be telling everyone I know to steer clear. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — N *2026-07-15, version 14.0.0* Love this app so much great info ### 5/5 — Best Co-Pilot for Adventures! *2026-06-16, version 14.0.0* 100/10 Recommend! ### 5/5 — Pretty good *2026-06-10, version 14.0.0* They have a good options and there’s always something new! ### 5/5 — Fun reminders *2026-06-04, version 14.0.0* I really enjoy the little reminders and suggestions of things to do.

It’s so simple and so easy. ### 5/5 — Perfect for the Planner Friend *2026-05-28, version 13.5.3* If you’re the one who always wants to try something new or is planning the hangs with your friends, this app is so helpful for coming up with fun, fresh new ideas! Or if you’re just tired of going to the same restaurants everytime you eat out. Even if I’m not ready to try a new place or plan right away, it’s great to have the log of ideas right in my messages app. ### 5/5 — Great *2026-05-28, version 13.5.3* Great app to have when moving into a new city! ### 5/5 — Great ! *2026-05-28, version 13.5.3* Love this app it’s great ! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
