### 4/5 — It works

*2023-11-15*

It’s very handy and it works, which is what we want.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review and for a high score!

### 4/5 — Great App

*2019-11-14, version 3.6*

Thus far I am really satisfied with Wild Apricot and all of its features. The events section is really awesome in regards to keeping track of everything. I haven’t tried the QR code to check in guests  but I will try it this week. The one thing extra I wish this app did do was allow me to send emails to members. That would make it perfect.

### 5/5 — Excellent tool

*2019-01-06*

I’ve been using this app for a few months now.  We use it at our monthly club meetings.  

I have signed up new members, updated member contact details, searched the member list to confirm membership status and processed renewal credit card payments.   All right on my phone.  No laptop, no web browser.    It’s fast and easy which is exactly what we needed.  

For onsite club member management, this app works great.    I haven’t experienced any crashes or timeouts on my iPhone 7.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2017-09-19*

WA is a strong product, and having the app is super convenient for checking people in to events. I appreciate the expansions being made and agree with an earlier review regarding emailing from the app, which would be a very useful improvement.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! Feel free to vote and comment the idea about emailing on our Wishlist forum: https://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932/suggestions/18078661 It would help us to better understand your expectations and needs.

### 4/5 — Nice app

*2017-09-06*

Thanks for putting this app together. It's nice to be able to access Contacts and event information on the fly.

I would love to be able to draft emails from the app. I hope that's on the table for an upcoming version.

Thanks again for putting together this app.

UPDATE----

As I've worked more with this app, I find more and more that I would really appreciate being able to create, edit and send emails from the app. That would be my number one request.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback!

### 5/5 — The best update so far

*2017-08-17, version 2.0*

This is the most useful app so far.  Wild Apricot has outdone itself!

### 4/5 — Not bad

*2017-05-22, version 1.7.1*

Would be nice to get alerts when member pays and is pending.

### 4/5 — Not bad.

*2016-05-16, version 1.3.0*

The app is good for adding members and viewing event details (including revenue). I can't seem to add an event, which is a bummer.

### 5/5 — Easy and functional

*2016-04-12*

This is really easy to use and I can view all the relevant areas. It's really quick and it's really well formatted.

### 3/5 — Needs payment feature.

*2015-08-20*

Good for checking in contacts at an event.  Needs the the ability to take payments at events as well. The system is very very "laggy".   When I click the button to check somebody in it sits for several seconds before registering my click.

### 4/5 — Works Great & Keeps Getting Better!

*2015-05-15*

This app works great for us when checking in or registering members during our events. Wish it included the ability to charge credit cards natively.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Error occurred / please try again

*2026-03-27*

The app is basically non-functional and doesn’t seem to have been updated in years. 

Trying to check registrations for an event this evening and when I click on the registrants tab, it just says “Error occurred. Please try again.” No information on the issue, no workaround, no way to check people into my event or see who is registered via the app. I have also submitted basic feature requests in the past and it seems to be a very stale app with no new features over the past several months.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! The issue with the registration tab has ben fixed in the new version (3.19.2). Please update the app and check if it works for you. If not, please tell us via updating feedback or by sending us an email to wa.mobile.crew@personifycorp.com As for feature requests - the main channel for it is our wishlist: https://tinyurl.com/wa-wishlist The more votes suggestion gets the more likely we'll implement it in the future.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing - ios26

*2025-09-12*

Worked fine prior to the update.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! The app should work fine on iOS 26 after the last release (3.17.2). If it's still not working for you, feel free to email us to wa.mobile.crew@personifycorp.com

### 1/5 — Constantly crashing

*2020-01-14, version 3.6*

We had 4 admins on android and iOS trying to check in guests to our event. The app would constantly give errors and/or crash.

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2018-07-05, version 3.1.1*

Tap to open and it crashes, wont open

### 1/5 — Disappointment

*2016-05-11*

I am disappointed with the lethargy and the limitations of this app. WA is a very good program for my organization when used on a PC, however this app doesn't make the cut. The process to modify a Contact or Member is painfully tedious because response to input is worse than watching paint dry. I'll not be using it on my iPad Mini unless there is significant improvement of response. My predefined Searches are useless because the 'results' show ONLY the Contact/Member that qualify for the Search; no other information displays. Very Disappointed!

### 1/5 — Not usable

*2014-10-05*

Just about every function gives an unexpected error. You have to wonder why they put something out that doesn't work at all.  When I contacted them, they gave a response that had nothing to do with iOS.

### 3/5 — Useful for about 50% of the admin tasks

*2023-09-29*

Good for checking status of members and events. Easy to add a new event attendee. Not very useful for membership or editing events.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! Could you please elaborate more? What do you miss in the app for editing events and membership? Feel free to edit your review or write an e-mail to wa.mobile.crew@personifycorp.com

### 3/5 — Inserting pics into email

*2021-03-14, version 3.8*

I nearly blew my head off trying to do this.   Why is it so difficult?

### 3/5 — Limited

*2019-07-17*

There are several functions missing from the app. Sometimes I have to go The the website to do admin activities on my phone but I can’t log in from the website so I just go to our website and log in.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback!

### 3/5 — Member app

### 5/5 — A must for member based organizations

*2023-04-18*

Wild Apricot’s comprehensive platform for managing membership renewals, events, donations, store front, and web presence, have allowed us to evolve from manual brute force to process and control in how we manage our back office.  This administrative mobile app is a great accompaniment to the core platform and puts vital information in the palm of our hands during events and meetings.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and for such kind words!

### 5/5 — Good

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-05-21*

This app is very usable tool. You may have all your members’ data on hand everywhere.

### 5/5 — Full Admin Access

*2020-04-28*

I am the originator of our club going to WA with great enthusiasm.  Setting up the site for the club has been a real struggle for us not IT experienced administrators.

Once we get it, the results are great.  It is frustrating to hit a brick wall and have to wait 2-4 days for a reply, but such is life.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback!
Sorry to hear you have not the best experience with the site builder. We are trying to improve the first impression, for example, we have a live chat for those who just started with our system.
By the way, what would you say about our mobile app? What is good and what is bad? Feel free to share your feedback with us.

### 5/5 — Great Mobile app

*2019-06-21*

Members app and Administrator App 
Is a big bonus to Wild Apricot.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! We'll do our best to make it even better

### 5/5 — Helps me to manage my organization every day.

*2019-04-30, version 3.4.1*

I have all important information right in my pocket. Most everyday stuff can be done from my phone.
