### "Doable and affordable for all sizes"

May 22, 2026

5.0

Great option for our price point and bandwidth. I believe that it will really elevate our event, and love that our volunteers were able to set it up without countless work.

Pros

The app was in our budget, and very user-friendly for us to set up. We are an all-volunteer organization, so this is a fabulous addition to make our conference professional and relevant to attendees. It is so much easier to manage than using a free platform like Band, as we have tried in the past.

Cons

Having never used an app, there was a small learning curve to figure out how to import, but it was manageable.

Ease of setup by volunteers, the price was well within range and the features were what I was looking for.

### "If you need an APP FAST!"

January 29, 2026

4.0

Very good, I had to set up in 3 days due to another platforms inability to follow through on some features. The customer service is PHENOMENAL and having the ability to receive answers from a real person is refreshing!!

Pros

If you want to quickly set an app with resources, and schedules this is PERFECT. The conference attendees were happy to have a maps and locations as the event location had a confusing layout. There was a little onboarding curve but they will be set for next year and I can also include the links created by Yapp to send to attendees in advance so they can download and peruse before the conference.

Cons

The design is a little outdated and the spreadsheet to upload information was a bit confusing with all the added columns. The process of adding attendee's photos seems arduous - but I am hoping that there is a good workaround that I just didn't have time to explore based on how quickly I had to set up.

They are unable to populate information is you have a hybrid event, the downloading process was extremely confusing for the attendee...we tried it out on a few people and it was a nightmare. You have to be able to access your email (that you registered with) on your phone to download the app, it send you a confirmation number and the list goes on. The issue for me was the hybrid piece, which was known from the moment I signed up with the salesmans but MORE IMPORTANTLY, my attendees do not all bring their work phones with them OR cannot access their work emails from their personal phones so that entire process is super difficult to navigate.

### "Great Convention APP for a very affordable price."

May 5, 2026

5.0

No bugs or issues with the program. Our attendees enjoyed using it and found it useful as well as fun.

Pros

An easy to learn and easy to use program that is pretty comprehensive, giving us most of the front-end features of far more expensive programs.

Cons

Not a lot of analytics or the ability to prioritize sponsors based on their contribution levels, but not a major hindrance for our convention.

Reason for choosing Yapp

Price point. The other two, while offering more engagement and analytical tools were far more expensive.

### "One Happy Association! "

April 30, 2026

5.0

The price is spot-on for our meetings, and the app’s ease of use is perfect for our events. We’ve tried complex platforms before, and staff spent too much time helping attendees download and navigate. Not with Yapp, we share a QR code, and attendees download and get started immediately. As we go paperless, having an app as intuitive as a paper agenda is exactly what we needed.

Pros

Its easy to build each of my meetings (5 per year) and its easy for my attendees to gain access to the app and navigate the agenda.

Cons

You might have already this feature and we're just not aware, but sponsors would like a lead generator option.

[Whova](https://www.capterra.com/p/149712/Whova/)

Cost - I went from one meeting per year to 5. We needed an option that was cost effective for multi events per year and easy to use for attendees.

### "Admin 9CNCT4FIEBAT"

December 3, 2025

4.0

It's a new but good experience; so far it's been good. I'm able to meet the needs of the conference participants as far as the app allows.

Pros

The simplicity of creating pages is quite intuitive. With a basic explanation, it's easy to use. Good interface.

Cons

Because it doesn't connect to the GPS at the conference venue and doesn't allow live streaming. The issue of staff accreditation should also be addressed. It would be good to confirm attendance through the app. In other words, the registration process should also be done through the app.

### "Great App!"

April 14, 2026

5.0

It really helped our event run smoothly and keep everyone informed of details, changes and information.

Pros

Easy to set up and manage! Great product for the price. It really helped our conference run so much better.

Cons

It is so great for event management. The only thing was the limited access on the app to make changes.

An awesome experience overall that was very positive, enjoyable, and memorable from start to finish.

Pros

Being able to post live updates prior to and during the event to keep participants informed, engaged, and up to date in real time.

Cons

Everything was perfect and very useful, with no real negative points to mention at all, as the overall experience fully met expectations and was well organized.

May 3, 2026

4.0

I love all of the app sections that make it easy for event attendees to easily find what they are looking for and places for the developers to put information.

Pros

The easy to use/edit/update. The interface online and on the app is user friendly for the app creator and the app user.

Cons

I wish there were more customization design options availble. There is only one layout style avalible and would be nice to have more.

April 27, 2026

4.0

Overall this is a very good app, it works well and is affordable. The set up is easy and is easy to share and download.

Pros

For the price it is a good designable site. Easy to work with. Simple design and clear instructions on how to set up.

Cons

Not as pretty as the expensive apps, need to do everything yourself. It is easier to have someone else design, but that costs more.

### "Promising App for Future Events"

March 7, 2023

5.0

The functionality of Yapp has been spot on for some of my clients, especially ones with smaller events. Yapp's customer service is one of the best parts of working with the app. Their responses are always timely, and I like that it gives you information on how long it might be if it's going to be a little bit. They've also always seemed very open to suggestions and requests from users.

Pros

Yapp is incredibly user-friendly. Building it out took a little bit of exploring the first time, but I was quickly able to figure out how to build what my clients were expecting in an event app. The rich text pages allow for some good customization, and agenda and attendee uploads are streamlined and very easy to use. When the app is up and running and being used at an event, it seems to operate smoothly for attendees, and any updates I send populate quickly and easily.

Cons

Although the app does allow for some visual customization, especially on the rich text pages as mentioned above, it would be nice to have more customization options on some of the other page types. It would also be nice to have the ability to insert custom code to be able to do things like embed forms without having to send people out of the app.

Alternatives considered

[Guidebook](https://www.capterra.com/p/144023/Guidebook/)[Whova](https://www.capterra.com/p/149712/Whova/)

Reason for choosing Yapp

The price of Yapp compared to our needs was spot on. Some of the other apps had too many extra functions that we don't need that muddy the water and are always a constant price add-on. We've also had bad luck with a couple of other products being glitchy when we need to update.

### "Great App for any \[Scientific\] Conference"

December 8, 2023

5.0

Splendid - the customer service/tech support are absolutely impeccable. \[sensitive content hidden\], and others have always been prompt and most supportive, even when some of my too-high ideas may not have had immediate solutions. As we know, tech support can make or break a company and this one, here, is a winner!

Pros

Ease of use Ability to have more complicated schedules (to include poster sessions, parallel sessions, etc.) Flexibility to add a variety of pages (speaker bio, contact, marketing, sponsor recognition, agenda, polls, event gallery, etc.) Pages with rich-text Appending PDFs within the app

Cons

Loss of the Twitter/X embedding in the app Lack of ability to embed code for a JotForm survey, or a PaperTurn document, let's say (so, keeping the user in the app rather than sending them out)

### "My first app experience and Yapp made it easy. "

October 28, 2025

4.0

Copying previous year's conference app to current year and updating as needed. Uploading handouts from the conference, photos of speakers & special guests, creating announcements to be released throughout the conference.

Pros

Yapp has a very user friendly interface. It was easier than I thought it would be to dive right in and create the app for our conference.

Cons

The carry-over of attendees from a previous year's version of the app to the current one caused some issues. Customer service confirmed that, for our purposes, asking them to delete the prior year's attendee list when setting up a new year's conference app would solve the issues I was having. I also didn't like that the only way you could see, add, or schedule announcements was through the app. I would have liked to be able to schedule those at my computer instead.

Thanks for the constructive review, Carrie! I definitely recommend our cloning feature for making a copy of last year's app for the new one. I hear you about posting and scheduling announcements from the computer. On our radar!

### "Breathtakingly amazing product for surprisingly low cost"

March 3, 2025

5.0

Yapp is extremely user-friendly for both event organizers and attendees. The platform features an intuitive uploader page, a clear and well-designed browser interface, and beautifully rendered graphics with easily embedded links. It’s highly customizable, and even the basic package offers robust features at an impressively low cost. As our event grows, there’s potential to explore higher packages for additional functionality, while the responsive developers continue to make the process a breeze.

Pros

The interface is incredibly intuitive, making it easy for both event organizers and attendees to navigate the platform. The uploader page is straightforward and efficient, streamlining content updates with minimal effort.

Cons

The desktop editing experience sometimes feels a bit cramped, but the main point is for phones so it's no biggie.

### "Yapp for event"

May 25, 2023

5.0

Pros

Very easy to use and intuitive which is important for a small team that is new to administering a conference app. Also easy to use and intuitive for our conference attendees which this was their first time using an app at our conference.

Cons

The alerts/notifications would not push to users in the app unless they had specifically gone through their phone settings to allow the notifications. I'm not sure if this is anything Yapp can do anything about, but this would be a game changer. Also, assuming Yapp can get the notifications to push to users, the ability to schedule those notifications would be fantastic. Tracking continuing education (CE) is a major missing piece for Yapp. Conference apps should be able to track users attendance at sessions as a mechanism for organizations to award CE credits.

Review Source

Response from Yapp

July 7, 2023

Thanks for the thoughtful review, Deanne. Yapp will automatically prompt users to allow it to send push notifications when it is installed, but it is true that users must choose to allow them. We recently added a scheduled posts feature -- more info at https://help.yapp.us/en/articles/6767384-scheduled-posts. Finally, CE tracking is definitely something we are keen to add to Yapp. Thanks for letting us know it is important to you!

### "Conferences Are A Snap with Yapp! "

June 26, 2023

5.0

With the ability to provide all of your conference information prior to their arrival, participants are able to maximize their experience while attending. The app helps organizers and attendees reduce anxiety associated with simple things like locating the registration desk, finding meeting rooms and knowing when and where breaks and lunches will take place.

Pros

The Yapp app is easy to setup, distribute and use. Participants from Baby Boomers to Gen Z attended our recent conference and they were able to download and use the app to see the schedule, read about the speakers and learn about the sponsors and vendors. We were able to change the schedule in real time for outdoor related activities when the weather took a sudden turn for the worse. Sponsors and vendors were very excited to see their logos and links to contact information had been included in their own special sections.

Cons

While you will have to use a minimal amount of creativity to customize your app, it is not difficult in the least. The ability to upload CSV files for sections like sponsors and speakers makes maintaining those sections a breeze when last minute changes are necessary.

Reason for choosing Yapp

When compared to other products, we chose the Yapp App because it was affordable and easy to use.

Love it...very happy with Yapp! Yappy Happy!

Pros

This app is extremely affordable and simple to use. 24 hour support so somebody is always available to answer questions. I can form teams so they can build the app while I work on other items for my conference

Cons

It doesn't have as many bells and whistles as the more expensive apps...like font color and type.

Pros

Overall a very good app for conferences. Especially for the price

Cons

More of the ability to customize. For example, adding a weather widget. Would also like the ability to add more graphics to the individual pages. For example, on the attendees page, be able to add a banner. Or maybe a banner that was consistent on all pages.

### "Elegant Solution for a Small Staff Making a Big Impact"

July 31, 2023

4.0

Pros

We are a statewide healthcare organization with a small staff and a large annual conference of VIP attendees. We've used Yapp as our event app for 4 years now, and no longer produce a print program or any other paper materials, saving money and time. Our attendees are executives who range from 30- 70+ years old and do not bring support staff to this meeting, so ease/intuitive mobile use is key. Yapp is incredibly easy to use for both our staff and attendees. It's a simple, visually attractive interface with ample customization opportunities to promote speakers and sponsors--and all at a fantastic price point--no need to invest in more tools than your organization needs. This is one of the best purchases we've ever made in allowing our small staff to make an immediate customer experience impact.

Cons

Not at this time. Thank you. Not sure this needs to be required.

Communication is extremely important with our programs and this gives us the tools to do that efficiently.

### "Workplace Social Media"

November 2, 2022

5.0

We are able to communicate more efficiently with employees and departments within our organization. I love the fact that it is similar to social media feeds. Comments and likes are great.

Pros

I like the feature of the timeline, with social media being used for everything now this app makes colleagues be involved within a work setting. The notifications of new posts is great. Yapp is easy to use and very similar to other social media platforms used.

Cons

I dislike the fact which we can not add more than one picture per post. Another con is not being able to upload videos or have the ability to go Live. I'd be great to have something similar to a story version of the most used social medias. We do have several departments and it would be great to have a section where videos can be posted to communicate information.

Thanks for your thoughtful review, Citlaly. Great to hear thorough feedback about Yapp's social features. I agree it would nice to attach multiple photos.

If you have trouble using it, please do contact support -- it sounds like it could be very useful to your organization.

### "Very Easy to Use"

October 2, 2023

5.0

We had a great experience. Your customer service was very helpful and jumped in to help me in a bind. I was very grateful for their help!!

Pros

Yapp was very easy to set up. I figured it out myself without using any tutorial. It was great for a conference. We were able to quickly purchase and have it set up within a day.

Cons

I wish that you could change the Yapp icon so that it can be personalized for our own event, vs it being Yapp. I found that our attendees were looking for our event name vs yapp.

Reason for choosing Yapp

It was recommended to me by a colleague who used it last year.

Response from Yapp

November 21, 2023

Thanks for the thoughtful review, Nicole. The Icon/Name is definitely a trade-off with our container app approach. Overall, we believe that we can offer the best value to our customers this way, but we also wish that level of customization was something that the platform operators made possible for us.
