One Day all you’ll have left is pics/videos.
Lots of ppl end up falling outta contact cuz they “don’t have time for everyone”….but it’s much easier when basic communication takes just 5 minutes or less, once a week.
The latest update was initially a little irritating due to videos not saving & some videos not showing in the history which was a bummer but it appears those issues have been ironed it out & all past waffles were restored.
PROS: Originally just 3min, now the time limit is 5min- you can use all 5 OR cut it short, it’s up to you. Allows for a late upload w/in a window of time if life was life’ing that day. Subtitles. Multiple playback speeds. Allows you to review the waffle before sending. Don’t like it? Re-record! super simple, easy to navigate, you can make separate groups to stay in contact with diff. ppl & w/o having to make separate videos- you can record one & upload to every group simultaneously OR create separate waffles tailored to each group.
CONS: can’t upload (pics or videos) from your photos/library. Sometimes videos take a crazy long time to upload & it says not to leave the page til the waffle is sent, so if you do OR if the screen times out, sometimes it’ll still go through, sometimes it won’t. Sometimes it’ll completely restart the upload process.
I’m a big believer in taking lots of photos/videos cuz one day, that’s all you’ll have left to look back on!

Response from developer
So sorry to hear you're running into issues! Rest assured your old Waffle videos are all safe & sound. The new version of the app was a complete rebuild that required us to migrate all user data which is not a small undertaking, and although we reviewed everything to make sure nothing was missed, these processes aren't always perfect. We'll make sure to get you and your friends all sorted - just send us an email at support@wednsedaywaffles.com with your phone number and group name and we'll take care of it from there!
A great way to keep in touch
I’ve been using the Waffles app for close to a year now and find that it is a great way to keep in touch with friends I am not geographically close to. The app has definitely had some bugs in that past year, but the team seems to be eager to fix them and very responsive to feedback. It’s been great to use the waffle app to help automate some of the keeping in touch that I would like to do, but sometimes forget to in the hustle and bustle of life.

A reason to love Wednesdays
My friends and I religiously hop into the app each Wednesday so we stay connected even with our busy lives. Highly recommend
Helps build intentional friendships
Loving this app! It looks great, and is so easy to use, and gives my friends and I a way to intentionally stay connected even though we’re all in different cities. They’ve truly thought of everything — I love being able to comment and see others’ comments, and to send different waffles to different groups. The team is also so responsive to feedback and questions. Can’t say enough good things!

Not user friendly
The intent is great, the product is not. Not intuitive, took a while faffing to figure it out, wasn’t easy to set up, people found it hard to join and while
The icons are kitschy, the usage functions aren’t obvious or well labelled. I tried, but gave up in the end.
