Perfect app for a college campus
I have been utilizing the app twenty for the past year on campus. It is extremely helpful application and has changed my college social experience. As someone who can’t keep up with the constant group chat, Twenty allows me to constantly be aware of where my friends are and what they are doing. With features such as status updates and hangout it allows users to utilize the app in a more personal way. This app is extremely beneficial for college towns.

The future of events
Twenty is going to save our lazy world! No matter what age you are, communication is always a challenge. Especially when it comes to social events like the high school football game, college bar crawl, or work softball game. People are lazy and inconsistent when it comes to communicating with large groups, but that’s where Twenty comes in. It’s so simple, so user friendly, and so convenient to connect with you friends and take the hassle out of events. I highly recommend this app if you are social and want the best way to become more social.

LOVE this app
Twenty is such a great way to let your friends know what you’re up to! The Hangout feature is awesome to get an idea of who is going where and when. If you’re having a big event or something small and private, use Twenty. I love the additions of the trademark logos for statuses. In just a click you’re friends can know if you’re Netflix and chillin or jamming out to some music. This app has definitely taken off in the past year. Such an amazing and convenient way to connect with friends and people you know!

So useful!
I love this app. It makes planning events so much easier. There is no longer a need for texting back and forth about plans because every event is shown on the map and you can see which of your friends will be at the event. This app is so convenient and it’s the easiest way to plan events and be notified about events. This is especially useful on college campuses, but can be utilized anywhere to simplify event planning!

Amazing!
I’ve been using this app for around 3 months and it’s honestly so great! Once you have a bunch of friends on 20, planning hangouts or events is so easy and convenient. I love that 20 is encouraging real life interactions, so many of my causal or even more formal social events the past couple of months have been through 20. This app is also really great for college campuses since 20 will alert you when a friend is nearby and wanting hang out!

SO Helpful!!!
This app has helped destress the process of making plans for me and all my friends. It’s incredibly easy to navigate and so much fun to see what all of my friends are up to. A lot of popular events on IU’s campus I’ve been able to keep up with easier than before. Twenty let’s me see which of my friends and who in my sorority are hosting pregames for that event/ going to the event in general which makes it so much more exciting!! I can’t imagine life before Twenty!

Such a fun, interactive, and SAFE app!!!
Not sure what some of the fuss is about! This app is such a great way to interact with your friends all over. You can easily hit them with a “WYD” or “let’s meet up”. It’s also SO convenient for big group hangouts! All you have to do is invite people on the app, no need for giant mass texts with people who might not know each other, or texting loads of people individually. You can also directly message through the app. Love love LOVE this fun way of bringing people together for real face to face interactions :) really is a great way to facilitate technology to bring people closer. I’d recommend this app to everybody!!

Awesome app!!
This app is amazing when you are trying to hang out with real friends in real time beyond social media!! I love how easy to use it is and it goes a lot further than find my friends with all of the amazing features. Finally, I can see what all of my friends are up to and easily get together with people. I highly recommend using this app, it definitely has increased my social life and encouraged me to hang out with my friends more often!

Great for making plans
I’ve been using Twenty for a little over 6 months now. It’s the perfect app for making plans with my friends! The interface is really easy to navigate and lets me see where all of my friends are in real time.
I really like that when I look at the map I can easily see everting that I have going on and can tap into each hangout to get more info. Twenty has become a living version of my calendar with so much more functionality!

An app for all!
Mappen is an interesting app, I would recommend it to all trying to make plans with friends over the summer, or to parents wanting to see what their child is up to during the day. This app us good to help kids when there board, kind of like when I am bored I go on there and I add to my status that I am board, and some friends will text me and we will have a conversation. The only reason this app got 4 stars was due to the frustration it caused when I was trying to figure out how the app worked. Overall it is a great app and it helped me hangout with my school and soccer friends multiple times this summer and because of that I would recommend this app to all. Thank you for reading my review!

Good app, deceptive practices.
Ok, I don’t usually write reviews, but I feel like I have to. I would have rated this 4 or 5 stars but the way they advertise it is scummy, deceptive, and just not morally correct. The way they get you on the app and get your friends/contacts on the app is they send you messages from people that they think you know saying that they tagged you in a photo, even though there isn’t a way to share photos in the app, and when you click the link they just take you to the app. I thought it was from Instagram but it was just for Mappen. There wasn’t even any pictures. The app itself would be much better is they didn’t try to trick people in to downloading it. Woah that’s a long review.
Thanks for reading!
Note to Mappen: I guarantee you know what you’re doing, so please stop. 🛑

very sketchy and creepy
I kept on getting messages for example, “Y/N, you were tagged in ((location)) on Mappen. Log in to see where your friends are hanging out right now ((link))” So of course I have never actually downloaded it before not until after my friends told me to. So this app kept on ‘spamming’ me with texts/advertisements about oh so-and-so tagged you in *my current location*. So I am just kind of creeped out how it knew my name and how it knows where I go to school, or where I live, because I never put any of that information in before. So I downloaded it AFTER to see what it was about and it pretty much knew my contact I put in my own phone without asking me like, “Can Mappen have info. in your contacts?” So as you can tell I deleted it amediantly. Because I just don’t want to accidentally expose some of my personal information or other peoples’. Just please be careful when you put in extra personal info. and always watch out if they already know stuff you never told them. Thank you.

Thanks for your feedback. Just so you're aware, if you don't have the Mappen app, it does not know your location. Being tagged simply means that a friend of yours sent you an invite to join. Also, once you have the app, you can always set privacy mode on. This prevents anyone from seeing your location. Let us know if you have any other questions or concerns by emailing us at support@juxtalabs.com. We're here to help!
Don’t buy this app
So I kept getting text messages saying “hi,This Person has put you on the map” and I kept getting them so you know I got the app and I Was like before I made an account I noticed your putting your location on it and your friends and I was like whoever owns this app is probably a child predator so I immediately deleted the app I still keep getting texts but I say “who are you” “don’t text this number again” “stop before I call the police” so don’t buy it you will be spammed AND this app is probably to track kids down IF you buy the app I’m scared your gonna get tracked down this app is not safe it’s very very dangerous so yea, have a nice day!

Not Safe
This app may say it’s safe, but it is not. Any app that can access your location (and is not made by, for example, app or google maps) is not safe. The other thing is that this app is kind of like you’re a stalker. You can see where your friends are at any given moment as long as they have location always on.
Some one who I tagged on this app researched the number hers came from and it said it was in Texas. According to online this app was made by two dads for their teenagers safety but it still isn’t safe. Whether it was meant to be safe or not you should not share where you are with anyone it just isn’t safe, what if the app was to get hacked like other apps, then people would easily be able to find you.

DO NOT DOWNLOAD
If I could give it zero stars I would. I have never in my life left a review before but I felt this app deserved it. And I hope that users of the app read this before downloading the app. This app is absolutely useless. When I tried to delete my account with no option of recovery I got countless emails and text messages explaining how to deactivate my account saying “this will actually delete your account” well I tried it and it doesn’t “actually delete your account”. An app should always allow its users to delete their account with no option of recovery. And it should ALWAYS let the users know if they cannot delete their account BEFORE they make an account. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. This should be illegal. Everyone has a right to privacy and to decide what to do and what not to do with their personal information. Not allowing me to delete my account is violating this. I wish I would’ve never downloaded this app. I’m still emailing and texting them but they have stopped responding. Mappen be honest and straight up with users. Sincerely, a VERY angry user.

Harassing Kids with ongoing texts for downloads!
My kid gets a text from a this app developer through a different random cell number every couple of days badgering him to download this app. He doesn’t want the app - not downloading - not creating an account. You can’t block the annoying reoccurring texts because it’s always from a different number. Gross tactic. Quit pestering people (especially preteens!) by sending ongoing messages to download an app that they don’t want - never clicked on - don’t care about! I see other people reviewed with similar problems only to receive a reply from this developer basically saying “just download the app create an account and...” HELL NO! Quit harassing people who never gave you there contact info!

Very dumb idea. :(
Don't ever text me again or i'll report you to the authorities and the app "Mappen" will be taken down from the app store for spam, illegal tracking, and an unsafe app. You have been spamming me constantly with texts even though I deactivated my account!!!
This app has absolutely no reason to be on the app store. It's not social media, barely any people are even on this app but those who are, better get off of it. There are creeps in this world, lurking on Mappen, searching for vulnerable children. This app is a very bad app. You don't even get paid for running the app, Mappen makers. Someone could easily sue for a child easily being kidnapped. This app only allows you to be on it if you allow full location access. This means that if you don't allow them to ALWAYS see where you are at all times, then you can't use the app. Stupid app idea. Major, major safety issue.

Hi, thank you for your feedback. You will receive a text when a Mappen user invites his/her friends to the app! When you receive a text indicating someone "tagged you" on his/her map, this simply means that you have a friend on Mappen who is sending you an invite. Once you create an account with Mappen, only friends you add or invite to Mappen can see your location or information. Just like the “Find My Friends” app from Apple, Mappen allows you to share your location with your friends. Like any social app it is important to only add people you trust. You can reply "STOP" to the text messages to opt out at any time. Mappen works best when location services are set to "Always", but you can choose if you want set your phone settings to "Always", "While Using" or "Never". The benefit to setting your location to "Always" is that you can get notified in real time about what your friends are doing, so you can choose to hang out with them if you want at that moment! You receive these notifications because they are real time updates! If you do not wish to receive these notifications, you can turn your notifications off under your phone settings. Send an email to support@juxtalabs.com if you have any other questions, we are happy to help!

Do Not Download This App!!
I got this app after I got many text messages saying that my friend added me on their map. I got the app to see how it worked and pressed yes on allowing to pull up my contacts. I added back the people who added me and added some of my family members. Later I got text messages from some of my friends asking me what is mappen and I told them I didn’t send you anything or add you on the map. I noticed that when I pressed yes to pull up my contacts that meant yes you can send a message to all of my contacts. I got creeped out about this app pretty quickly and deleted it. I still get spam about people adding me on their map and sent stop. So I hope that I will not hear from this app again.

This app made me furious, I sent an invitation to my dad and he got so mad at me you need to fix this app, I recommend you only putting the people that have this app on the “add friend” list because this could make people very upset I deleted the app so no-one I didn’t know could track my location, I have contacted I lot of people I’m sure that I have annoying them, I’m also very annoyed with the message section of the app it’s so confusing and hard to get to, MAPPEN DEVELOPERS FIC THIS PROBLEM!!
