Meetup: Social Events & Groups Positive Reviews

Meetups THE best app hands down…Meet ups has turned out to be a life-changing game changer there is nothing out there like meet ups it’s a platform where anybody can advertise any kind of class any kind of modality any kind of healing tarot breathing breath work and just about everything else you can think of under the sun if you haven’t tried it do it just do a search for today or coming up in your town online and see what comes up there’s so many interesting things out there and meet ups is the place where you can find them honestly it is my daily go to to find out what I’m doing today what new subject I’m gonna study some new master class of all kinds it’s really really so much fun to try all these new things you really got to try it if you haven’t already! Most of the classes are free initially so you can at least try it and see if you like it and there’s so many things that don’t cost anything if you’re tight on a budget you don’t gotta worry about it because most of the places are by donation only so you can try the different thingsAnd not be obligated to pay for some thing that you haven’t even tried it or pay for something that you can’t afford, if i could give Meetups a 10 star i would try it youll see its amazing theUnlimited variety of subjects and classesRight now since the coronavirus almost everything is on zoom so you can do it from the comfort of your own home you don’t even have to leave your house it is really really cool!!!.Version: 9.0.21

How else ?It's tough for me to socialize. Even when I want to , it's not easy to find what will work. Meetup has given me a chance to connect with people based on mutual interests without feeling forced to socialize more than I want to. I started out with a movie meetup, something I often do alone.i had the option of socializing after too. Next I tried a local place where we could play video games and have snacks or drinks . I then found a group that meets up at a coffee shop to get paperwork done! I had been dreaming of finding something this, I even tried to place an ad for a buddy prior to meetup . I haven't tried started a meetup but it's also a possibility here. I found fellow sci fi lovers too, who knew ?! There are lots of groups for outdoor exercise like hiking and biking and during this time of distancing it may prove to be healthy endeavor. The fact that I can pick and choose is ideal. If you haven't tried meetup I say go for it! I am normally leery of people too and meetup provides a nice balance of meeting ,safety, interests and exploration. The groups are generally closed I found that to join I can say a bit about my interests and check out other profiles. I love that I have been about to hang with a 70 yr old and a 20 year old finding common ground. I can leave if I want or stay for the duration. I can talk sci fi or knit ,color or draw , exercise or chill. It's all there in meetup !.Version: 8.3.2

Add a video call feature2021 is about connecting more than ever. Every app now has video or conference call built in. And if you add it please add screen sharing capabilities for subscription and group leaders. Thanks! Secondly I mentioning how when viewing meetup groups in the app “past events” shows before “upcoming events”. If someone isn’t eager to go through the group events they may not see any upcoming events and think the group isn’t as active. Please fix to make it show the upcoming events before past events via meetup app.///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Update: using the app it doesn’t show or accept certain links when posting new events. It will say “oops we don’t recognize this link please use a different service/link” but via web browser you can publish using link of choice. If someone is using the app and want to join video conference they will not see the link nor be able to join since it shows “TBD” instead of link. Please fix app. *****Also update so we can add video into photos albums * I want to add, anyone having issues with not liking the app via iPad just go on the website (not in private mode) sign in click remember me then add meetup to home screen as an app. Now you will view it full screen with all capabilities as the web version. Problem solved..Version: 8.7.1

I am a three year Yogi. I have serious heath issues.They gave me 3 months to live so I had to fight back. I started doing yoga 7 days a week three years ago. I have an auto immune disease call sarcoidosis. My heart was so enlarged I could barely get out of bed. My lung captivity was less than 50% of normal. My heart went back to normal and my lung capacity had been greatly increased. But the prescribed drugs I take for quality of like are deadly. A drug called prednisone destroyed my hip and cause bone death to the hip bone and hip joint. I was out for about 6 months before they would or could do the replacement. I flew through the surgery and recovery in the mist of another miracle. The Drs gave the credit to my faith in God and Yoga. These online classes are a life saver. I had the surgery on Feb 12 and have recovered 99%. I leave the 1% to allow for carefulness in learning new hip poses. I met Black to Yoga at their outdoor classes in Emeryville about a 18 months ago. The instructors are amazing and well practiced. I am a Yogi for life. This online Yoga durning the Corona Virus is a part of my full armor. Namaste.Version: 8.2.6

Mostly great but…I’ve used this app for years. I mostly like it. It’s a good way to connect with people and it’s a good way to see the different kinds of activities in my area (so even if I can’t attend the event, I’ll have an idea in my pocket for later). However, 2 things drive me kind of nuts. 1-At some point there was an update to the format of profiles of people who are attending an event. Before the update, I could click in to the event of any group I’m in, see the list of attendees, and click on a specific attendee to see their brief bio. Now all I see are the groups they are in and/or their interests. If I want to see their bio, I have to click into the group itself and search through the list of members to find the one profile I want to see. I don’t understand the logic behind this change. It makes no sense. Why have us fill out a bio nobody sees unless they happen to think of following this new, clunky pathway? Get rid of the new way and go back to the old way that made sense. 2-It would be nice to be able to decline events instead of constantly receiving notifications for events I know I won’t be attending. One of the groups I’m in has several thousand members so it’s pretty active…and I’m constantly receiving notifications for events I know I won’t attend. It would be great if I could just say no and never see a reminder again..Version: 8.7.14

Great concept, but app has some weird behaviorI love how easy it is to find and create events. The app just has a few areas for improvement. First off, the app will send you notifications to sign up for events that have already closed their RSVP, that are full and have a long wait list, or that you've already signed up for (just got one as I was writing this). Additionally, the notification system for messages and event chats is unreliable, and one must manually refresh the event page to be sure you're seeing the latest messages. Just tapping on a notification for a message does not necessarily mean that that message will be shown in the chat when it opens. Sometimes you need to do a manual refresh. Also, it would be really nice if time-sensitive notifications for events that already happened would get cleared automatically. I can easily end up with 30+ suggested event notifications in the app for events that have already occurred. It's a lot of noise that drowns out what I might actually care about. Lastly, it would be great to be able to set a distance radius for suggested events. I live in a major metro area and sometimes events in my groups are close to me and other times they're 1.5+ hours away. Overall, a great app and service, but soon room for refinement..Version: 2023.6.2

Good Does Come Out of ItI love meetup so I can go hiking with other people. It’s very hard to make friends for me so I suggest choosing an activity you enjoy. Fortunately, the first meetup hike I went to was great. The second was just ok. The third was awful. If I had chosen the third one first, I wouldn’t have used this app ever again. But I learned which ones to go to that fit my needs. I took off one star because there are some great groups I would be interested in but they haven’t held an event for years. Meetup should remove those. I strongly suggest choosing events that more than 10 people have replied to, because some don’t show up without canceling their RSVP and you can end up with only 2 or 3 people which can be very awkward. Most people that choose meetup as a way to meet others are very plain regular folks and very nice in all shape and colors. But you still have to be careful because once in a while you will see someone who may not be trustworthy. That’s why larger groups are better. At the walking/hiking events, the attendees are there for fresh air, get in shape and because they haven’t spoken to anyone for a whole week. I am very grateful for this app because there are so many people who have no one..Version: 2023.12.15

What a god-send for people in situations where they are lonely or want to meet new people!The app lets you search for groups or activities or events by key word....or just scroll through all the events that meet-up groups have planned for the week and just click to join and get the info! Some are totally open to everyone cuz and some have a short screener for safety. Never found any to be scams and all are just legitimate good people who want to do activities with like-minded people. The only problem I’ve ever had is that sometimes ill sign up to join a meet-up event...like recently at a local festival ...and I get there and can’t find the group because the leader was too vague about the meet-up spot and didn’t have a sign or anything for new people to recognize the group. That’s happened a few times and is a bummer. But mostly it works out! Also, if there’s not a group already out there doing something you like, it’s super easy to start a new group with your interest....I’ve been surprised at the response that new groups get..Version: 8.1.6

Needed to find a place and some friends!Are used to Meetup as a recommendation from my sister who lives in Tulsa. She moved there and knew no one, so she got the Meetup app and found some things to do and people to meet, so she recommended it to me. I live in a different State and city and my circumstances are different. I stopped going out or doing anything and got depressed, so I use the app to get myself undepressed. I started out by just going to one yoga class and I just kept going and meeting new people and finding more more things to do and now I’m happy. I have also use the app to look up things for people in different cities and states that I care about and want them to find interesting things to do and people to hang out with. This app gives me the opportunity to check their area and make suggestions and tell them to use the Meetup app. What I like the very most is that it is not about finding a significant other. It is about meeting people and doing interesting things in your area..Version: 8.1.5

Great App... better people!!This app is easy to navigate. I like that you can go in and take yourself off an even you have RSVPd for if you have something come up. The reminders are also great to your email because we are all so busy already it’s hard to keep up with so many added events. I was a little cautious at first. I’m not the best in most social settings and definitely not good at just going out and meeting random folks. My husband thought I was nuts but he’d do anything for me... so here we are. Had our first meet up and it was great!!! Everyone was really nice and the organizer was very good at laying the ground rules...ie. No bullying, no phones during movies, always be respectful, and have fun!! The people we met up were all from different backgrounds, had different careers, interests, personalities, etc., but it meshed well. I did not at any point feel like we were being rejected or ignored. Just an overall great experience with wonderful people MY age!!.Version: 8.1.13

New to the areaI have found Meetups to be very helpful in finding activities (so far only sports for me) when you are new to an area. I recently moved to the Sacramento area and I found myself becoming a homebody and lethargic. I previously was active on different rec teams, my kids were younger and kept me busy coaching or training them, and without Covid19 my circle of friends were always doing something. But since I have moved all that ended. I haven’t made close friends through Meetups but everyone I have met has been very friendly and welcome new people who enjoy whatever the activity is the group was formed. And there are many, many groups, social, online learning, all sports, age defined and more. I would highly recommend at least seeing what groups are near you, if you find yourself with free time and wanting to do something more productive than tv. Chances are there is a group set up for people with similar interests as you. And there is no obligation. Try it once, see if it’s for you. If not, look for another group..Version: 8.4.9

Pretty user friendlyI’m new to Meetup and have only attended two events and have enjoyed both outings. The people are amazingly friendly, organized and very helpful. Especially to newcomers! I like the app and would give them a 5 star, except that it could use a couple more tweaks to further optimize it. For example, it doesn’t give us an option to provide feedback (such as volunteering to drive or asking for carpooling), during the RSVP stage. Only after having RSVP’d, we must go into the general comments. Another feature would be to allow folks to see the event description without having to RSVP first. Also, being new to the area, most people don’t know the acronyms which the event hosts use in describing or the names of areas. It would be helpful to have a little more descriptions (such as the level of difficulty, etc.) for the event. The State of Washington’s Mountaineering Organization has a very good system which could be used as a model. Overall, I’m very pleased and thankful for this organization. Thank you!.Version: 8.1.12

Fun community, terrible appI love going to Meetups and even started organizing them. The app however is really bad. It feels like their Product Managers must just look at engagement metrics and never actually use the app themselves. If you change your RSVP to an event, you will still be notified and cannot remove yourself from the event chats. If I’m no longer going, why would I want to stay in the chat!?! I also want to limit the ridiculous number of notifications I receive after joining a lot of groups and instead of having a simple way to turn off all notifications of one type, I need to go to each individual group and select which notifications to toggle on/off. Why in the world do they not have a universal option to toggle those settings on all groups? While these are just a couple of the Quality of Life issues I’ve run into, I also run into bugs on a regular basis where my events/groups/profile do not load correctly for a period of time. I’d recommend just using the website for now..Version: 9.0.16

Great for travel3 years after becoming a first time mom, MEETUP has jump started my social life again!!! I relocated from NYC to south Florida when I was 8 months pregnant with my little one... needless to say, between being a new mom and moving to city with a MUCH slower pace, my social life pretty much took a deep dive then careened to the floor... when I was ready to start going out again, I had less than a handful of friends in my area who wanted to do the same things and were available at the same time. This led to constant cancellations and a few awkward solo outings. With meetup, I was able to connect with Like-minded women who were doing the kinds of things I liked to do so I could go out without the stress of having to do almost EVERYTHING alone. I also really like that I can send messages to the event hostess in advance if I have questions! Nowadays, I’ve been traveling to different states and I like to use MEETUP to find cool things happening in other places before I go!.Version: 8.0.2

Fun times, great friends, new horizonsWhen I unexpectedly moved to the city to take care of my mother-in-law I did not know a soul. I started going hiking with a really good friend in Griffith Park through something called “Meetup” This was an incredible experience with very nice people and a picnic afterwards, so I start going more often and she said to look into where there were meet ups down where I lived in the Inland Empire. So I did Since then I have learned to scuba dive, gone skydiving, have taken cruises to Mexico and the Caribbean, attended wonderful parties with amazing people, and have a close network of friends that is beyond my wildest dreams. I’ve heard comments on our cruise like oh yeah there’s that singles club or the swingers club! And I quickly correct them and say we are a social club with like-minded people getting together, you should try us out. I recommend meet up to everyone that I know, and I belong to many groups, and this made the transition from moving from one side of California to the other so much easier. I have people in my life today that I couldn’t imagine not having. The reality is that there is a meet up for just about anything you’re interested in ..... you just have to look for it. Our group does music, dancing, food and wine, and getting together for each other to support each other through life in general. It’s a fabulous way to make some friends. You won’t be disappointed..Version: 8.0.8

What an awesome way to connectIt’s hard to find other Blacks in tech and this app has given me the ability to do that as well as connect with all the other great engineers around the world that represent their respective ethnicities. All of my hobbies can be exercised on this app. Photography, software engineering/web development, Nature, sports, science, happy hour, socializing, you name it! You get a little bit of everything on meetup. And no one is here to tell you that something is or is not a good idea. Whatever you are passionate about can be pursued unabated and free or regulation and micromanagement. That’s the beauty of it all. Your imagination can take you and others that share it to the same corners of the Earth. So find out what you desire and what you’re into and are passionate about then go for it! Skies the limit people let’s all love and support each other to the best of our abilities. World peace, solidarity, equality, and freedom...meetup (no pressure by the way)!.Version: 8.1.2

So far so good.I am a new user of meetup. But I have been impressed so far.. This app is great for business owners to be on to inform people in your area about your services and or classes; extra. It’s also great for any and everyone of all ages to use. We all at some point look for something to do while we are out of the office or home; this app is a great tool to help you find something to do. Also for people bored wanting something to do it’s a great tool to help you find places, classes, and possibly new groups of friends. It’s a good networking tool. It’s also a better way to meet people who have similar interests as me. Especially where I have tried online dating apps but I’m not really into playing “games” and found I don’t have the time for b.s. so I deleted them. But I still have meet up and I have enjoyed making real connections with people who have similar interests as me. I highly recommend this app! 🙂.Version: 8.1.9

Good but navigation is confusing and redundantI honestly don’t understand the quick-to-hate for this version of the app. However, they are right when they say this new version is not intuitive and doesn’t make sense. For example, let me go over the bottom 5 tabs are for navigation of critical aspects of meet ups: 1) find new meet ups (like an advanced search feature), 2) card view of current meetup groups and you’re able to browse new ones (honestly 1 and 2 should be combined. It’s redundant and is confusing), 3) the “check mark” icon tab is for your upcoming or past meet ups. This is where you go to see them. However the check mark symbol is a little unintuitive and confusing. It would make more sense to make it some sort of calendar icon., 4) group and meet up notifications, and 5) profile. The app is good, but confusing and redundant. Navigation is not intuitive. Looking forward for newer versions but I understand this takes time and resources. Keep it up..Version: 7.14

A lonely WidowAt First getting to know anybody else was the least of my thoughts. Losing your "right arm", what I considered my husband to be, of nearly 64 years of marriage. We were High school and College sweethearts also. So, more togetherness than 64 years. Actually most of our lives. I depended and loved this man forever. But-- Life goes on, so I finally took a step forward. Finding out about Meet Up was totally a fluke online. A new organization called "meetup" appeared. Further investigation , led me to my area in Florida. I decided, after much thought, to join two over 50 organizations. After going to visit them, I realized there were many in the same boat as I. I have to think twice about the events I go to. Sometimes.I gravitate back. And just sit in the old chair-- but then, do get up and go out to visit my new friends and realize-- I am thankful to have new friends..Version: 9.0.6

MeetupThis app has provided the opportunity to meet people and enjoy a wide range of fun activities. The groups that are successful have planners and hosts that are engaged. It also helps to have multiple planners with larger MeetUp groups. I have found that many groups start out but fizzle out because nothing interesting is planned. The organizers are sometimes reluctant to accept help from others and want full control of the group. I joined one group that had over a 1,000 members. Unfortunately the planners organized no activities. The group became defunct. However, other groups are very successful and plan thought out activities of various activities. I will continue to focus on the groups that are organized. I am single living alone and this app has given me the opportunity to meet people of similar interest..Version: 8.5.3

Good, but needs some work.The Meetup app is good, but needs some work. Sometime with the recent updates, a glitch was created. If you click a link for an event or reply “Going” or “Not Going”, the links open the app for a few seconds then are redirected to the Meetup web page through the web browser rather than sticking with the app. One change that would be great is if the Meetup app allowed replies of “Not Going” on the event pages rather than the extra steps of hitting “Going” to then hit “Not Going”. Another thing that would be helpful is if when we say that we are “Not Going” that we don’t continue to get notifications of the event and discussions. I’m a member of several groups and I get anywhere between 20-50 e-mail notifications per day of various group events. Many of them I cannot attend due to scheduling conflicts. If these changes could be made, then I’d change my rating of the app..Version: 10.0.0

Needs a groups and Calendar viewThe app has a few critical flaws, it desperately Needs a groups and Calendar view! I miss out on events all the time because they are full, and when I get email well in advanced I have to use the web because the app can't isolate to a group view or a calendar view!! Also it sometimes does not show a price when there is a fee, there needs to be a Free vs Fee flag, with payment notes and links!! I really think Meetup is a great company, and I know that the new parent company is trying to make investments – the most critical should be software development for the platform, and just bringing it up-to-date – and figuring out a way to make stronger integrations with other platforms. it would be awesome to be able to use media and have video intros for a group video messages from the organizer, etc. etc. – they really just need to think of the mobile experience as a way to revitalize the company and the platform simultaneously..Version: 2023.09.8

Needs CuratingI am very sick and tired of people using this site for free advertising, cult-like techniques, and the kind of pressure you’d find at a pyramid scheme interview or conference. Some are more subtle but just as subversive. I make an exception for those who are doing the thing that they have mastery over, even if it costs a little money (membership fees) but those groups have NEVER pressured me with upselling. In fact one reiki master even gave me a wonderful gift of a herkimer diamond geode. Unfortunately it was stolen, and that broke my heart. It was such a thoughtful and meaningful gift. If you’re interested. She operates out of Rocklin. I’ve had a few glasses of wine so my memory has left the building but I’m almost positive it starts with a K like Katherine. Girl if you see this and I’m wrong, call me! I recently discovered I have a brain tumor so I haven’t had time to come around. And I had to move to Tahoe just so I can get some peace.😜.Version: 9.0.5

Lockdown Life Line!!Super happy to have joined Meet Up during lockdown as felt quite isolated particularly as new to the area. Although at the time there wasn’t much happening as physical meet ups the online sessions such as Norwich & Cambridge Piano group with zoom recitals was the first session I joined and was wonderful. A total inspiration listening to people sharing their musical gifts from their homes across the country, Europe and the following month the USA. From there I joined some yoga and meditation classes on line and then as things got going some walking groups initiated with Karen and a walk around the city to regularly trotting around Norfolk with whoever has availability.. I have been really impressed with all of the meet up organisers and admire their time and commitment to others for the joy of sharing their hobbies, talents and knowledge. I would like to add I was a bit dubious as to how genuine Meet up be but now feel totally relaxed about joining a group. Everyone has been super welcoming and accommodating. I have also met some interesting people which has enhanced the activity to give a really nice social experience. I do find lots of activities are on a Sunday morning which is understandable. Would enjoy a bit more on Saturdays and late afternoons in the week, oooh might have to try and organise something myself and give back to the group.....Version: 8.4.3

Great but $$$$$ to start a groupI like this app. I’ve been able to meet people and while some didn’t work out as I hoped, I feel confident that I have a good group of people for what I want. The downside to this app, paying money to start a group. $15 per month is pretty high for something you might not use in a month or so. By that I mean, you could move on to another thing to look for or another type of group. I think that fee per month should be lower (currently is 50% off) or just have a flat rate to have the group permanently open. Close groups that are not showing any activity. I think sending a notice to the members that this is going to close works fine. But in the age of Facebook and other sites, charging people money for things like this will kill this app and allow another that doesn’t charge a fee to come to life. Aside from this, you do have a good chance of finding what you want on this app..Version: 8.0.7

Love Meetup!I love the Meetup app! It’s pretty easy to use, it allows us to keep in touch with each other. Activities’ information is clearly posted, we can comment and even download pictures! I first joined 2 photography groups in Texas about 10 years ago, I loved meeting with people with same interests as mine. We would go to different places to take pictures, it was incredibly awesome! Sadly I had to leave my groups due a horrible accident, I was totally incapacitated for 4 years but after surgeries and extensive therapy I can finally walk again. We recently moved to Oregon and I already joined 2 groups, I was left with some physical limitations but even though I can’t do as much as I used to do before I’m able to meet with the guys . . . If it wouldn’t be for this app I would never be able to stay informed of my group’s events and activities..Version: 8.1.6

Ok for members, coordinators, not yet.Easy for exploration and joining. Still needs some work for coordinators. Starting a group guidance could be clearer. I didn’t realize my preliminary group description and tags were to be published immediately upon approval. It would be nice to give a coordinator the option of deciding when to publish after approval. Could also make the iPad interface more easily maneuverable and manageable for coordinators. After a couple of weeks going in circles, finally deleted the app and went back to Safari. Better, but have some suggestions. Menu bars/options could be better organized. Members could be on one side bar with applicable menu items; and events could be on the other side. It would be nice to have option of msg board fixed to home page to see/reference along side discussions board. Unless new members know where this is hidden, the messages go unnoticed. Thanks for developing this app and continuing improvements..Version: 8.1.14

Great for the Spiritual CommunityI have found incredible Meetups in different cities across the country for spiritual events that I may not have found otherwise. In particular, I love how many people who host Reiki circles utilize Meetup. I have enjoyed the many yoga instructors who post on Meetup and host their sessions outside of yoga studios in parks, beaches and chapels. I have enjoyed the hikes and philosophical Meetups and the vast array of groups that I can Meetup with and connect on shared passions no matter where I am. I love the app, very easy to use. As someone who runs a Meetup page, I also find the options as an organizer to be easy to use as well. Thank you for this incredible platform!! I also love that this is a great resource for those who do not wish to be on social media but still want to stay in the loop about what’s going on around town. All-around great service to the world! Thanks!!.Version: 8.0.19

Review and feature idea - requestHey y’all, I’ve never done an app review before but this has been on my mind every time I use this app for months now. Whenever I browse for events it feels like the list is bloated and searching becomes disincentivized by repetition. I’d like to see a feature which enabled blocking of groups to eliminate things you don’t like and free up the bloat within searching. Seeing the same things over and over whenever I pick it up has me not wanting to pick it up. It feels like fresh things are buried and I just am not appealed to read titles and scroll events I’ve seen every time I open this that id never care about. This app has given me good memories, albeit few, but all felt like lucky breaks and it’s felt very dry for very long for me for these reasons here. I’m here to put this review because I do care about seeing new life within this app and I’m curious about the receptiveness of its caretakers. Cheers friends and adventurers, strive to be great.Version: 8.0.20

Still LearningMy husband and I are fairly new to the area. We hoped to utilize this app to find more activities and people with similar likes and activity level. We like to golf, bowl, bike ride, walk, we’re dog owners, we aren’t musicians, artists, or historians, but we like enjoy concerts, theater, art, and history. My husband is prior military, which helped bring us together over 35 years ago. In the military communities we always had at least one person there who could recommend things and we did as well. We want to find a good community/group and enjoy participating in activities and getting to know others through this App. We’re interested in “meetup” groups who aren’t trying to network to sell something or hook-up. Just build real ‘old-fashion’ friendships and have fun. I do recommend this app. It is up to the individual and his/her time and trust level to be willing too venture out and meet and do new things..Version: 8.0.16

Amazing app in many waysI love this app this is so much better than a dating site, after all life is about meeting people that have similar interest allowing us to build relationships and trust as we get to know people. I know the few groups I have been part of has provided such a comfortable envirment to talk with everyone and see what you have in common. People you might have never talked with if you were focused on just dating allows you to really get to know people and can take that time to see who they are by asking questions and seeing how they act around others. I can say it feels like extended family. The other nice thing is that Admins can pick and choose who they want to be part of the groups so if you just dont fit your not getting in. This helps keep groups safe and comfortable unlike dating sites that have no filter can hurt or damage someone wanting to get out and meet people. It almost feels like speed dating where you get to talk with so many different people with not hidden agenda. After all is that not what we are to be doing anyways, building relationships that start as friendships and see what comes from that. What we will find is that along the way we have developed many great friendships and relationships along this journey..Version: 8.1.5

Needs work.Interface and navigation is still confusing, needs some simplification. For one, make “Discovering New Groups” it’s own section or something. At one point I had two different searches going in that between the “Home” and “Explore” tabs. Very confusing trying to figure out where I was and trying to get back. Also maybe consider unifying the Notifications tab at the bottom into the Chat & Messages button/section. That’ll give you space for a new button or section in the future. — COMPLAINTS: the app tends to just lock up randomly, won’t respond to any touch inputs, very frustrating. And the search function itself tends to be a joke. I search for “muscle cars” to try and find an automobile group nearby, and the results I get are for a Writers Group, and Environmental Action Group, a HAM Radio Group, and a Weekly Movie Discussion Group. What the heck does any of that have to do with cars??.Version: 2023.6.9

Nice for community, bad for photosPros: I appreciate that Meetup brings people with similar interests together through events and email blasts. I am grateful for the ability to have safe online events. Cons: As a member of a large, active photography group, I mourn the loss of the ability to COMMENT on PHOTOS via the desktop app and the loss of the simple black background behind photos. Comments allowed us to support each other through praise and suggestion, to question and thank commenters, and to share techniques and locations. It is cumbersome to comment on photos via the phone app. The phone app makes it hard to get to photo albums that are independent from events. Although I also miss the convenience of having a library of educational documents as part of our Meetup group, I can live with that thanks to other online storage options..Version: 9.0.14

Clunky + Alert bugsFirst, this update has caused an insanely annoying bug where notifications won’t clear. Again! I hate having that red dot and so I’ve had to turn off notifications until it’s resolved again. There already was an issue where if you get one notification that you subscribe to, the number changes to include all alerts total and that includes the “suggested groups” that you can’t get rid of. Second, as many others have said, the U/I is not very user friendly. There is no way to make defaults to be for your groups instead of all groups in the area and search isn’t very easy to use either. As a site, and the reason for the 3 stars as opposed to 1, I do enjoy it. I like that I’m able to meet people with similar interests and likes. For the most part I use the site instead of the app because navigation is much easier and intuitive plus it feels more features are available that way..Version: 7.15

Unable to verify accountI had been using this as a guest and decided to make an account. That was easy, however when I went to verify my account I was unable to. It wanted me to do a captcha and said I’d only have to do it once. It proceeded to make me do three of them and then at the end it blocked my account because my gmail is apparently a spam email address because their website didn’t work. I will change my review if support is able to fix this. Other than this the app has been fine. I was told it was my IP address but after they deleted my account I tried again and I was still blocked because my email address is on their list of spam email addresses now. I gave up and just used another one of my emails to sign up. I wish I had been warned that a VPN and/or custom filters can screw up account verification; I would have turned both off when I was verifying..Version: 9.0.21

Nice app. Would love an iPad versionA decent app for setting up, attending and following events. Would like to see an iPad version so that sharing and viewing photos is much easier. And they’ve now added granular notification options per group..Version: 8.6.1

MeetupMeetup events are a wonderful way to continuing to do the activities you enjoy. Whether you are single or coupled it’s a meeting place for like minded people. For example walking alone in some area is often not safe: join a walking group! Network or enjoy a meal with others, ski, kayak you choose or start a group..Version: 2024.1.26

Pretty niceThe 2 meet up events I attended were fun and I really enjoyed myself, only I did not understand how to stay in touch with the people I had met and so I am kind of disapointed. I guess, I will get a hold of it eventually. I recommend for connecting with people..Version: 2024.1.18

Excellent communityMeetup has proven to be a great way way to meet likeminded people and to build relationships.Version: 2023.12.15

Suggestion popups are starting to get in the wayI have used Meetup for years, but I was repeatedly opening and closing the app three times in a row to get rid of popup suggestions to get Meetup plus, start a new group, and participate in some kind of contest. They all had that tiny X button and giant “sign me up” button and I didn’t want to play an impromptu Action video game trying to peck the little X when I don’t know the consequences of missing that small touch point. After going through the popups, the most prominent thing was some more AI suggestions rather than my groups. After that, I got the popup to review the app which I am doing now. It would be a lot less intrusive if the app could be like before where you can get in, check your groups, and close it in less than 5 seconds. As for suggestions, have them in an area so I can check out the new features and similar on my terms, rather than the app preventing me until I see them. For example, LinkedIn at least puts the suggestions off in an area in the messages, and you need a button click to see them rather than the UI blocking pop up..Version: 2024.1.03

Great AppPerfect app to connect with like minded people..Version: 2023.12.15

I wanna be out thereSometimes I forget how good it is to just get out there and do things. Working from home has really made my world smaller. Meet ups gives me an opportunity to do things my small group of friends doesn’t do or we can’t commit. I love being able to make plans and meet new people..Version: 2023.11.28

Meetup Hiking GroupI’m a member of Meetup since 2015, the reason I joined is because I don’t want to walk the trail by my self. I meet a lot of people whom have the same goals and interests as me and we enjoy everyone’s company very much. The leaders of the hike I join are usually very organized and professional especially Mocwa hosted by Jack. He’s quite knowledgeable and explains things along the trail in a detailed way. I want to thank the person created the Meetup group so I don’t have to be alone walking the trail. 👍.Version: 2023.10.06
