### 3/5 — Needs better UX, Lagging in organization or group user tools

*2025-02-05*

Past events should be greyed out. There should be a “you might like” suggestion on the bottom of the event.  Events should be able to be tagged. Would be great to be able to create group and group chats, as well as group notifications and schedule tagging.  Nice app for event organizer but not useful for teams or groups who don't already have slack or group calendar tools to help their teams stay in touch or to coordinate specific event schedules. Half of the puzzle is there but could use more for users and groups.

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2024-02-09*

Need to respond to comments on posts or tag a specific person to respond to them.

### 2/5 — Yapper is a scam

*2023-11-02*

I’m not a fan they stole my bank information

**Developer response:** Hi Khari, you may have us confused with another app. We don't collect bank information from app users in any manner.

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2020-08-24*

Please fix the crash issues with this app. It only happens when I need to watch videos from this app and I have an iPhone Xs.

### 3/5 — Freezes a lot

*2019-10-17*

Works reasonably well, but keeps freezing up, requiring a restart to continue using.

### 4/5 — Gets the job done

*2018-09-21, version 7.7.1*

One thing - 

The last cell in the daily schedule is cut off by the tab bar. Change the contentInset.bottom value of the table view to prevent this from happening

### 5/5 — CPYC

*2018-06-28*

CPYC HYPE EVERYONE LEAVE A REVIEW!

### 5/5 — Conference made easy

*2017-06-21, version 6.1.18*

I love how streamlined this app makes all conference materials, from schedule to speaker bios to sponsors and more. I want EVERY conference to use this app!

### 5/5 — Best

*2017-04-29, version 6.1.17*

Amazing app plz you use it

### 4/5 — Love it, could do a little more

*2015-11-04*

My company is obsessed with Yapp and I have to say, it's made a huge difference in how we handle communications for our internal conferences.

There are two features I'd love to see in a future release:
1. The option to "like" posts in the news feed
2. The option to swipe left so I can see agenda items without clicking on each one individually

### 5/5 — Very Awesome!

*2015-09-24, version 4.1.0*

It is very convenient and amazing! I LOVE THIS APP! I recommend it to everybody! :D

### 5/5 — IOS 9 not working

*2015-09-17, version 4.0.0*

This app is awesome except that since I updated to iOS 9 I can't refresh my news feed.

### 2/5 — Yapp for verizon promos

*2015-07-02, version 4.0.0*

I don't know what all the Yapp is about? I'm a sales consultant for Best Buy and our verizon rep had me download this app to be up to date on all verizon promotions and it supposedly updates instantly. Well some week old promotions didn't apparently update and resulted in a customer disappoint. I'd avoid using this app. For current and correct promo info refer only to Best Buy approved guides. 

This review was written under the scope as a Verizon promotion guide tool. I'm sure the app has many great other functions that have nothing to do with Verizon.

### 1/5 — Very hard to get in

*2026-05-13*

It is not intuitive and difficult to even start

### 1/5 — Need Facebook App

*2022-04-25*

Works generally well, but to use Yapp with your Facebook ID, the app has to pair with the Facebook App. For my event i need to log out of my Facebook profile in the Facebook App and back in as the Facebook Profile for the conference. Very inconvenient.

### 1/5 — Terrible, buggy app. Stay away

*2017-04-11, version 6.1.16*

Nothing but FRUSTRATION when trying to deal with this app. It never recognizes that you have already downloaded a "Yapp app", and then sometimes randomly, the Yapp app gets deleted and you have to go through the entire process all over again. 

Garbage app. Stay away.

### 1/5 — has bugs

*2016-10-14, version 6.1.0*

this app deleted all my events for the next week and I had big problems. So I don't recomend it.

### 1/5 — Locks up

*2016-08-04, version 6.0.1*

This app locks up and I have to keep rebooting it.

### 1/5 — Wish I could give it negative stars

*2015-03-04, version 3.1.2*

Won't let me create a user name. Keeps saying there is a problem.

### 1/5 — Worest App Maker Ever!

*2015-02-17, version 3.1.2*

•Asking for my Facebook username and password
•Then option two. It's asking for my email username and password
•I say Wanna Be Hackers
Anybody that apples to any of this. Then your a rerated. And yes I did my Facebook k never use...

### 1/5 — Stupid

*2015-01-20, version 3.1.2*

### 1/5 — terrible bug

*2015-01-14, version 3.1.2*

i cant even put my username in, it keeps saying yapp cannot be made at this time -.- deleting

### 1/5 — Morning – malware!

*2014-07-11, version 2.2.34*

My phone was fine then I  install this app. My phone became jittery and unresponsive. Tried a bunch of stuff, but still messed up. Restarted. Deleted app. I still have about 50% of my phones cycles. It's like something else is running and taking all it's time. It only receives about 1 out of 5 of my screen taps, and tap and hold it doesn't work at all.

Do not install!!!

### 5/5 — SKILLS USA

*2025-06-16*

This app is a good way to share photos or updates with competition groups and mates :)

### 5/5 — Amazing—absolutely perfect for conferences

*2025-05-09*

An incredible platform that is perfect for running your next event! As an event coordinator, this app has everything I could possibly need to keep everything easily organized for my attendees, which has significantly cut down the amount of questions I have to answer during the event. It’s completely user-friendly both for the organizer and the attendees. Setting everything up was super smooth and streamlined, but also not so uniform that I was able to customize pages to fit my needs. From the attendees perspective, I received lots of compliments on how easy it was to use and how helpful it was to have. Not to mention, the creators are very responsive—quick, patient, and incredibly helpful. If you’re debating between several platforms, make it easy on yourself and just download this one.


(For context, I run a weeklong writers conference that has a multi-track schedule)

### 5/5 — Hi

*2025-03-25*

Pretty tuff app I can’t even lie

### 5/5 — Great for conferences!

*2024-06-25*

Easy to use

### 5/5 — Great for Conference

*2022-05-25*

This app was great for keeping all the information (schedules, handouts, maps, etc) together for a recent conference I added. I originally was not thrilled to have to download another app… but this app was extremely helpful, user friendly, and intuitive. 

I recommend this app.

### 5/5 — Very good

*2022-04-21, version 10.4.6*

This app is so so so cool and helpful. Yaaaa

### 5/5 — Clap for Yapp!

*2021-07-03, version 10.2.1*

This is an excellent app for managing events. No more paper brochures or worries when the sessions or speakers or rooms at a conference/festival/or other event change at the last moment. It’s all in the app.

### 5/5 — Easy to use and keeps things organized

*2021-07-02, version 10.2.1*

Been using YAPP for a year now and is super easy to keep information organized. Our event attendees also love how they can view all the information clearly and easily. The team of developers are super helpful.

### 5/5 — Excellent, easy, robust and perfect for conferences

*2021-06-27, version 10.2.1*

I have been using Yapp for five years now as we run a complex three day event for about 1000 people. It’s so useful, fast and simple - both for our team as well as delegates - that we started using it for smaller events and we bought three more licences.

### 5/5 — Would recommend this app for your conference!

*2019-07-09*

So far I’ve found this app very easy to use. It has all of the features I need for our conference and is much more affordable than other apps!
