### "Great for Cross-country bike ride. "

July 6, 2023

5.0

We have struggled in finding a good app to use for our events to communicate with thousands of people across the country.

Pros

We love the ability to post many events and ease to provide event updates.

Cons

Sometimes our imports get a little tedious to be able to manipulate the information for our events.

### "wayforward conference feedback"

March 2, 2026

4.0

Good. The attendees really liked it. Now that I have my first conference done, I can learn how to use it more

Pros

Price point is good. Easy to create and use. For the most part, user friendly. For what we needed, it was just right

Cons

Need to have the ability to mass upload attendees without going to the much more expensive version. Also, the ability to assign a person to the sponsor so they can update info on their organization would be great

### "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The design is a little outdated and the spreadsheet to upload information was a bit confusing with all the added columns.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 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.

### "Yapp works great"

April 14, 2026

4.0

Overall, I am pleased. It is easy to learn and easy to use. As an admin, I wish we could make changes on the app. I won't have my laptop with me all the time and I would like to change items as needed. (Maybe someone's name is misspelled, or we need to add info to a bio.)

Pros

Overall, Yapp is an easy-to-use app. I like that it is user-friendly and doesn't require a big learning curve. It has the tools needed to promote our event, which is exactly what we need. I like how we can showcase our agenda and let attendees know in advance what to expect at our conference.

Cons

I had trouble loading logos to our agenda page. I wanted to add sponsor logos under the description and had trouble on a few. It would help to indicate what format they should be in and have a way to edit the logo size. I also noticed that when I wanted to edit a few pages, there were banners across the wording I needed (for example, the date of my event was always over the word "edit") Some of the information we added didn't always save. We started hitting "publish" after each save to ensure the info was saved.

### "Learning Curve"

March 19, 2026

5.0

Great. I was a click away from know my program schedule. No more paper schedule. I scrolled through the app on each day activity.

Pros

I love the fact that I can upload documents so everyone can access with group emails. This app makes accountability a thing since everyone has to access document using their emails they use on the app by themselves.

Cons

I like the fact that I can upload a photo. However, it does not allow multiple photos upload at a time which makes it time consuming to upload many picture one at a time.

### "New kid with a small budget"

March 24, 2026

4.0

It was a great experience! It was very easy to navigate from both the end-user and administrative perspectives. I also loved being able to get real-time data about session feedback. We will definitely utilize this platform next year!

Pros

With a limited budget for a small symposium, the app was exactly what we were looking for! It really helped provide our attendees with the most up-to-date information about vendors, speakers, and activities.

Cons

While most of our attendees had no issue downloading and setting up the app, some had trouble, such as being asked for payment or being asked for unnecessary information. Once we figured out to send them directly to the app store, we did not have those issues. I'm not sure if it was from our QR code or just a few hiccups during the rollout of new technology.

### "10/10 as of now "

March 4, 2026

5.0

I love this app and I’m grateful our \[sensitive content hidden\] chose it. We will know more of how the apps during our second day of the conference but so far so good.

Pros

I like that yapp is user friendly. An app for all ages with easy access to upload material. We are currently using the app for our spring conference and people have discussed the ease of it. I also like that the map is integrated. This allowed us to place addresses in real time.

Cons

I haven’t used the app outside of our conference to be able to give a fair con. If I had to choose something - I would say overall aesthetic could be better. More themed features maybe.

### "Great app for all your needs"

March 6, 2026

5.0

It was a great experience. As I mentioned it was easy to setup and make edits and the guests of the conference had no issue figuring out how to access and navigagte the app.

Pros

It was easy to use both from a abackedn setup perspective and from the end user's point of view. Everyone loved it and felt that it added to the overall conference.

Cons

I would like to be able to do a bit more customization of colors, graphics etc. Some of this may have been on me with not having the time to really explore the app, but a bit more customizing would be great.

### "The only cost effective solution I have found"

September 28, 2022

4.0

Overall, it's a simple platform that helps structure data, display it helpfully, and update it in-realtime for conference attendees. Not as fancy or feature rich as other platforms, but by far the most affordable. Simple and effective.

Pros

It is a very easy solution to use and accomplishes the desire of having a conference "app". Worth the money and can be used simply for data distribution and communication, or you can use more advanced features if desired. Compared to all the other enterprise systems out there, this is the only one that is anywhere affordable for a non-profit event.

Cons

A little more customization on the app pages designed for just content display would be nice, but the more custom you can get the more complex it gets. A few more built-in themes or styles for the app structure/layout would be nice, but again, keeping it simple can actually be a blessing. More dynamic linking of data would be helpful (being able to create instances of items and then link to it throughout the app rather than having to recreate the data on different pages).

### "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.

### "Our Yapp App was a Huge Success!"

April 20, 2023

5.0

The directions for app set-up were very clear and covered most of our needs. We were able to get quick answers when needed from the chat support. The app made it much easier for attendees to choose and find the activities they wanted to participate in. We didn't know what to expect, since this was our first year using an app, but we were surprised and thrilled that almost half of our attendees/staff downloaded the app. It was well worth the time and money we invested and we will definitely use Yapp for our next event.

Pros

It took much less time than I expected to transfer the information from our web site to our new Yapp App. The clear directions and page templates made it easy to set up. Attendees loved the easy access on their phones, and used the app mostly to check our schedule of activities. Yapp allows the end user to create their own personal schedule. People also checked out vendor, presenter, and performer details on the app, and used the maps to find classrooms and vendor booths. Event management also found themselves referring to the app throughout the weekend.

Cons

I would like to have our own event icon on the user's home screen instead of the Yapp icon. We also found the "personal schedule" icon in the app was difficult to find, but once you found it was tremendously helpful. This was our first year using an app, and we would like to explore more of the announcement and social media features at our next event.

Reason for choosing Yapp

We heard about Yapp through another event. While we did research other app software, it was a clear choice to use Yapp when we saw how easy it was to set up.

### "Need an App get the Yapp App"

December 6, 2022

5.0

My overall experience has been very positive. Since day one, the staff at Yapp App has been very supportive and very quick to respond to any of the questions I had in terms of using the app and the features it provided. The chat feature they have is great and they respond to you quite quickly. Also, it is very cost-effective for what you get and you can choose to add additional apps if you decide you need more. I also like that once you retire an app, you have the ability to archive it.

Pros

This app has allowed me to seamlessly communicate with the attendees of our annual leadership summit. It was easy to learn how to use this app. There is no coding involved and each section can be customized to your liking. You can load schedules, bios, pictures, PDF, videos, etc. It also has instant messaging that allows you to quickly push out notifications. I love that you can create your content and when you are ready, you can simply push the publish button. We have also used it for other teams as well not just for our leadership summit.

Cons

I wish you could add a registration feature to the app with the ability to cap the attendees at a certain number for each workshop being offered. Possibly pushing this feature out first, before the entire contents of the app are populated.

Reason for choosing Yapp

Our company hosted a leadership conference at a hotel in south Florida and as the event planner, they recommended we use the Yapp App that they were offering. I tried it and decided to launch it here in our organization for other content areas.

### "Simple & effective mobile event management!"

October 20, 2022

5.0

Yapp is an incredible little application which has enhances our ability to communication and organize internal events. We use it internally for conferences with up to 2,000 participants where the individual schedule of events for each participant are published as part of their profile. As changes occur due to cancellations, or on the ground logistical challenges, these can be updated quickly keeping everyone organized.OUTSTANDING Support! As other reviewers have said, the support from Yapp is second to none. We push the limits but any time we have a question or concern, the quality and timing of the response has always exceeded our expectations.

Pros

•Simple enough for non-technical staff to setup•Ease of deployment•Users love the social elements•Ability to publish individual agendas (creativity required)

Cons

While there are always opportunities for improvement or enhanced functionality, it's hard to find fault with anything in Yapp.While not a 'con' it would be nice to have couple of additional features:•Ability to add pages in other languages and add a language tag to people. If any page existed in the alternative language, present it rather than the English page.•Ability to add raw HTML to the about field in the people upload. This would allow for better formatting of the content in the about section (this is how we publish each individual schedule)

### "Yapp Review"

May 9, 2023

4.0

Overall, I had a positive experience with Yapp. It was a great tool for creating a custom event app and it provided all the features I needed to make my event a success. The app was easy to use and the customer support team was very responsive when I had questions or needed assistance. I would definitely recommend Yapp to others looking to create their own event apps.

Pros

I really enjoyed the user-friendly interface of Yapp. It was so easy to navigate and create my own custom app without any coding or technical skills. The drag-and-drop interface made it simple to add features like a schedule, speaker bios, and interactive maps.

Cons

One thing I didn't like about Yapp was the limited customization options. While the drag-and-drop interface was easy to use, there were some design limitations that made it difficult to achieve the exact look and feel I wanted for my app.

### "A Non-coders Technicolor Dream App"

January 27, 2023

5.0

Yapp has been easy to create with, easy to update with, and easy to get answers from their customer service team.

Pros

When we needed to look like "the bigs guys" on a budget, we searched for cost-effective yet powerful app purveyors. Yapp was suggested to me by a web developer as a cost-effective way to promote a conference for a client. From speaker bios, to multi-track event scheduling, and pushing announcements, Yapp delivered the goods and had great customer service. This expanded into a few human resources apps as well.

Cons

The one thing I would like is to have more design control -- multiple branding colors available for different items. The client is frustrated they don't have their logo/icon on the app, but I have tried to explain the ease of using Yapp as the umbrella to get apps pushed through quickly and efficiently

Reason for choosing Yapp

Price, and then success of our first app created opportunities to add more apps

Review Source

Response from Yapp

February 6, 2023

Thanks for sharing your experience, Jessica. I'm glad that it has been overwhelmingly positive. The logo/icon wish is one we share with your clients, but we're convinced that the best ROI for our customers lies in the container app approach. We will see what we can do about improving the theming/branding capabilities, though!

After 3 years we love the App for our conference

Pros

The schedule is terrific. Exhibitors profiles and info is good. Having speaker handouts on the schedule is a real plus!

Cons

1\. can't attach digital promotional advertisements to exhibitors easily 2. Schedule overview doesn't have speaker's name on it....only location 3. Hard to add a READABLE MAP (exhibit hall and classrooms) 4. Most Sponsors are Exhibitors....can't pull Exhibitor Info into Sponsors. Have to enter same info twice

The Yapp was very easy to build and made it easy for our attendees to have access to the most up-to-date information for our event, as well as having complete access to our Sponsors, Speakers and Exhibitors information and materials all in one place! Was a very plug and play software!

### "Use of Yapp for Conference"

January 16, 2024

5.0

I have used Yapp for several conferences. I find it very easy to work with and a high adoption rate among users, which decreases our need for printing programs. When users were unsure about using the app instead of a printed program, many return the program after a short time using Yapp. Very convenient for me as the conference planner to have all the information on my phone.

Pros

Yapp is very easy to set-up and does not require technical staff to do so. It is also easy for users. My conferences frequently have attendees with intellectual disabilities and autism and they find it easy to use and helpful.

Cons

Would like to see a little more flexibility in template pages.
