OMG!!! this app is so amazing

The new update

The app was absolutely perfect. An app that I didn’t know how much I needed. However they’ve ruined the entire thing with the new update. Putting videos into the wrong groups and I’m unable to remove them. It is completely messing things up. The app is now useless.

It keeps crashing

It was working for the first couple days now every time I open the app it crashes straight away. It is fully updated I don’t know what’s happening

Nice but some flaws

Nice app and I enjoy the idea of it but there are some major flaws. I am unable to select the plus sign to create a new collection. Also, if I hold down on a recent save and select add to collection, it does nothing. Would love to see this fixed so I have more organization.

Response from developer

Hey Blair! So sorry this is happening! I would love to take a look at what is going wrong so we can fix it. We already have an app update waiting for Apple to approve it with some fixes in it, but if you could send us any info to support@yaaytravel.com that would be super helpful for us to debug the issue to make sure it's fully fixed ASAP. We really appreciate you trying out Yaay and want to make it the best experience possible! Sincerely, Christian from Yaay

No better app

Best

Response from developer

Thank you so much! ❤️

Didn’t work for me

Added so many posts from Insta but no map shows.

Amazing App!

Found this app through Instagram. Instantly impressed!! First of all, so thankful it’s FREE! Second of all, it’s a great way to store all the content that inspired your trip & help you find the spots you came to see! Great work guys.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for trying out yaay! We have a lot of improvements on the way to make the experience better based on all the feedback we've gotten so far :)

Infinite start up loop

Seems broken..keeps asking for a nickname I've already saved and confirmed with email. Now, all it does is stop at this step or say 'that name is taken'

Response from developer

Hi Dan! That definitely shouldn't happen, I would love to look into getting this solved for you! If you could send your email to support@yaaytravel.com then we can take a look at what's going wrong. I've just checked that onboarding and nickname flow is still working, so I suspect there might be a different issue going on here or we might have an issue on specific devices. Appreciate if you get back to us Sincerely, The Yaay Team

Great first release

Fantastic idea for an app, once they add more features I can’t imagine this app not being a must for all travelers

Response from developer

Thanks so much for giving Yaay a try 🙏❤️

Inspired

I never feel compelled to leave reviews, but this app is actually so innovative and useful. I spent a good chunk of time going through saved folders on instagram and sharing all the posts that are buried there to yaay where they can actually be useful!! It’s not only good for travel, but for saving new restaurants and fun activities in my home city. 10/10 use of tech imo, bravo team.

One feature request would be to be able to zoom into the interactive map and click on the pre populated points of interest to be able to save them like that, it would be more intuitive.

Useless

Can’t even create an account

Good idea..if it worked

**UPDATE**
After being able to complete the onboarding process, the app has been easy to use so far. It’s pretty intuitive to save reels to your selected location. I like that you can create files under each location.

What I find a little frustrating is that unless you include people when you first set up your trip location, there doesn’t seem to be any way to add people or share the information.

I also was disappointed that you can only have three trip locations at once.

All this said, I have not been able to try the app in the wild yet. I’ve started my lists, and can’t wait to put them to use.

I was excited to try this app. However, after spending nearly half an hour trying to access it with two different validation codes sent and neither of them actually allowing me to even access the app.

We’re really sorry the app didn’t work when you tried Yaay 😢 Happy to say the issue is fixed and everything is running again. We suddenly experienced a huge spike in users and our database provider couldn’t keep up. After about 60 hours fixing things, we've now switched provider completely. We're a small startup and it truly means the world to us that you downloaded and tried Yaay ❤️ If you're open to it, we'd love for you to try the app again 🤞 If it works better now, we'd be incredibly grateful if you'd consider updating your review. Anders & Christian Founders of Yaay ❤️

Good app but...

Great app!! One suggestion: could you add the ability to edit or update the auto-assigned emoji/category? For example, I picked a Japanese bar, but it was automatically categorized as sushi, and I’d like to be able to change that.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback, it's truly appreciated! Great idea, we'll definitely include that in the app as soon as possible :) if you have any other suggestions feel free to contact us directly on support@yaaytravel.com And thank you for using the app, it means a lot to us ❤️ Anders, Co-founder of Yaay

App Won’t Let Me Sign Up - FIXED

Update: they seemed to have fixed the issue! I was able to create an account and am loving the app!

This app has so much potential and I really want to be able to try it out! Unfortunately, I can’t even get the app to let me create an account. It asks me to enter an email so it can send me a code in order to sign up, but I never get the code. I’ve tried 3 different email addresses, but sadly I never receive the code at any email I try.
Please fix this devs!

Can’t get a code to sign up

Been inputting my email about 5 times the past hour and it’s not sending me a code to sign up. Was hoping to find an email to tell you.

Still horrible

It’s a great idea and the couple of times I got it to work a while back by restarting the app it was great, but I got tired of trying to force it to work and deleted the app. I then got an email saying that they had fixed the issues so I figured I’d try it out again and I still can’t get past the login screen. It has me enter my email to send me a code to login with and then it just never sends a code no matter how many times I try to go back or restart the app.

Update works

Since the update, everything is faster and smoother. The team is very responsive. I have some ideas for improvement I will share with them.

*Updated review*

Started using this app a few days ago and have been saving videos non-stop! Now that it's been working it is genuinely a very good app! Takes a little bit of time to save and for the app to figure out where things are (sometimes it's not brilliant at working it out) but the map itself is really useful to see where things are in relation to where you'll go!
