This app is a perfect tool for our generation to get together and talk about what we believe needs to change in our community.

### 5/5 — Well organized and easy to use!

*2022-05-30, version 2.5.1*

TurnUp is well organized, fast, and easy to use! I love how all of the issues underneath the “Resources” tab is listed in alphabetical order. 

I also appreciate how simple it is to find social justice events near you.

Finally, I love how fast TurnUp is! When you go to “Resources”, select an issue, and click on “visit website”, it takes you to the website incredibly quickly. There is no delay!

Great app for youth activism!

### 5/5 — TurnUp is Making Organizing Cool

*2022-02-15, version 2.5*

I have never seen another app that really tries to create the interactive and proactive community that TurnUp makes. If you care about literally any issue in our country and don’t know how to get started, this is the way to go.

### 5/5 — Great way for fast connections

*2022-01-31, version 2.4*

This app is great for those always on the move and looking to get involved in local events. It is easy to use and connects to the larger networks of users to help find others concerned with similar issues.

### 5/5 — Finally!!!

*2022-01-10, version 2.4*

I am so happy to have come across this great and useful tool for change! It provides so many great events and information for the youth to use that we truly need. Tools like this app are more needed than one may think!!

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2022-01-05, version 2.4*

Although I have not had the TurnUp app for a very long time, I have had time to get acquainted with it and it is extremely helpful and resourceful. It helps me stay up to date with events and resources that I am interested in such as information on Black businesses, BLM, Climate Striking, and more. It is such a wide range of information on this app that it is helpful for the youth and everyone else as well. Overall, I enjoy using this app and learning something new while doing it!

### 5/5 — Such an amazing app that’s so easy to use!

*2021-12-22, version 2.4*

Turn Up is such a useful app! It creates so many ways to productively participate in our democracy, and it makes it so easy for young people to access tools they need in order to vote. The resources available are awesome!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Lies Lies Lies

*2024-10-22, version 2.5.7*

Don’t download this app if truth is important to you

### 1/5 — Hello? Is anybody there?

*2024-06-17, version 2.5.6*

I was disappointed to logon for the first time today, June 17, 2024, and see that the latest announcement was posted November, 2023. The version history shown in the Apple App Store says the app was updated one month ago. I guess I’ll check back for a couple weeks and see if anything turns up. Since I entered my location, I don’t think I can see if there are current announcements in other locations.

### 1/5 — Requires a phone number. Why?

*2022-12-10, version 2.5.2*

What does my phone number have to do with climate change? 

Invasive information gathering. I deleted the app.

### 1/5 — Too pushy

*2022-11-09, version 2.5.2*

Starts off asking for email and password — no prob. Next asks for phone number and opt in to sms — nope and nope; allow me first to explore the app and decide if there’s anything I want you to contact me about. Can’t skip this part so app is uninstalling app for being useless.

### 1/5 — Omg

*2022-09-24, version 2.5.2*

Get a job

### 1/5 — not valuable

*2022-06-12, version 2.5.1*

tried to look for events nothing in a very popular city (top 5 in population for cities in the us) there’s nothing in the app. the formatting is weird and events feel very sketchy. most of the good reviews left here are by the companies interns in which it is an assigned task to leave a good review on the app

### 2/5 — Very Dated. Site is still advertising voting for 2020

*2025-03-09, version 2.5.7*

The title sums it up nicely. I want an app that advertises anti-Trump protests and thought this would be the site for that. When created an account the first activism tile was about registering to vote for the 2020 election. It seems the site makers aren’t interested in keeping their content current so I don’t see how I can learn anything from this app.

### 3/5 — Unable to create account

*2022-03-31, version 2.5.1*

I tried three times to create an account, but TurnUp froze every time. I gave it three stars with the expectation that the bug will be quickly fixed.

### 5/5 — Great app for activism

*2022-09-25, version 2.5.2*

Great app to help young people become more active members in their community and support grassroots activities near them!

### 5/5 — Easy to Use / Important Concept

*2022-09-20, version 2.5.2*

The app is so easy to use- works a lot like the other popular social media apps out there. Simple and straightforward- but also fun! Love that I’m supporting an important cause & motivating others to do the same.

## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great way to get involved!

*2022-09-06, version 2.5.2*

TurnUp Activism is such as great app that enables individuals of all ages to get involved in issues that they are passionate about. You can filter events by location, issue, and more, which makes it easy to get involved in activism wherever you are!

### 5/5 — Amazing!!

*2022-08-16, version 2.5.2*

TurnUp is a perfect space to kickstart your activism career! If you are unsure where to start, look no further. TurnUp can connect you to events around your area that you can participate in! You can also connect with friends that are interested in similar topics as you!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-08-15, version 2.5.2*

As an intern, I use this app often. It is so easy to navigate and find relevant information. I recommend this app to everyone

### 5/5 — Awesome!!

*2022-07-09, version 2.5.2*

TurnUp has allowed me to connect with people in a way I had never pictured possible. As a younger activist, I always found it difficult to find coordinated events.. most information was either non-existent or only on some obsolete form of obsolete social media. TurnUp has made activism so much more accessible and social!

### 5/5 — Fantastic App

*2022-06-23, version 2.5.2*

While I primarly have used TurnUp on my iPhone iPad, I have found it to be very user friendly and helpful on Mac, too. I have been able to get involved in many activism events and it is very easy to use.

### 5/5 — Best app for activism

*2022-06-21, version 2.5.2*

This app is great because of how accessible it is to find information on voting and events. The information on the app is very detailed. There’s a lot of information on how to register to vote as well as when elections are. I would definitely recommend this app.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2022-06-15, version 2.5.1*

I just joined the app about a week ago and get over 100 events available in my area!! Such a fun way to get connected

### 5/5 — Great app to make change

*2022-06-15, version 2.5.1*

I am very interested in womens issues and mental health. Knowing that there’s an app where we, especially the youth of our generation can sign up and be a part of change, is comforting and exciting. I recommend for everyone to stand up for what they believe and this app is a wonderful first step in doing just that!
