No longer relevant

Yelp has gotten so outdated and irrelevant as it is riddled with inaccurate data and missing venues. The dont provide an accurate depiction of places as they are more motivated by getting advertising money from crappy businesses than hosting a unbiased representation of the product and service provided. If you want to find a place, just google it.

Whole experience feels like spam.

Forcing you to go to the app to see reviews, when you are in a browser already, is the most annoying thing developers do, it turns me off, not only the app but also the website. Yelp started off as a great idea and now is equivalent to spam in my opinion, they also buy up the front page of google which is even more annoying. Spend some R&D on making this a better user experience rather than the bullish marketing youve been doing from the start. Also, how does this app have 0 reviews? Considering this is a review app, wiping the reviews clean seems fishy.

Ease of use!

Love the app, ease of use, to the point and everything I need on ease page. Also Yelpers are so on the ball with their reviews, weve yet to be steered wrong!

My Most Essential App

I use Yelp to check out new businesses and the photos are especially helpful at a new restaurant when Im trying to decide what to eat. Talk forum is great for local Q&A as well.

Yelping

Great for checking in on Yelp and finding nearby places. Would be nice if events were more accessible.

Cant do much with the app without giving it lots of permissions

Too invasive, not sacrificing my privacy to help grow this app

App required by website for no good reason.

Honestly, this should be contrary to Apples app submission guidelines.

Good App. Some minor things

Good colourful app. Easy to use and share and bookmark. Some issues with search and filter. Location gets refreshed sometimes.

Cant use the actual yelp website without this

Damnit Yelp, I just wanted to read some reviews without having to download your app.

Connectivity issues

App does not realize it has an internet connection when WiFi is on but not connected and 3G is present.

Great app would be greater

If you could somehow set the default in the search list to closest items listed first.

Kinda dumb

Pretty dumb to make people have to download your app just to post or read reviews from their phone.

Collections buggy

Good idea for collections, just wish it worked. Getting multiple error messages, and sometimes the collection just disappears. So I stopped trying to make it work. Wasnt ready to ship.

Great in Nor Am, so so in Italy

Ive used Yelp to my benefit in Canada the US and UK. But on my current trip through Italy its proven to be less helpful. Fewer listings and far fewer restaurant reviews than TA, which seems to be much more commonly used here.

Yelp only loves/rates downtown Toronto!

Ive been reviewing on Yelp since 2012 but Yelp still doesnt offer a fully functional mobile app or mobile website, cant function offline like Trip Advisor, and is still skewed towards downtown Toronto users. In a large city of millions like Toronto, Yelps Top of lists should be balanced between suburban & downtown locations like blogTOs Top 10 lists are, and their yearly "Elite" team should include suburban top reviewers. There should be as many suburban restaurant and shop reviews in the suburbs as downtown but Trip Advisor has a much better selection of suburban reviews. The search function defaults to "current location" and doesnt allow a proper search function by neighbourhood and includes irrelevant locations and ads nowhere near the neighbourhood. Brampton is not in Etobicoke! You should have an "Airport" neighbourhood listed for travellers, there are a lot of decent restaurants on the Airport Dixon Road strip. When you live in a predominantly residential neighbourhood i.e. Weston, the "current location" as the default isnt helpful. Toronto does not end north of Bloor Street or east of the Danforth & or west of Runnymede. Yelp asks if every place has bicycle parking, which most locations dont have and arent legally required to have, but Yelp does not rate places for accessibility, which IS a legal requirement for newer buildings, nor does it ask if there are ground floor washrooms without stairs. This would be far more useful and universally needed than bicycle parking. The link on the mobile site for the desktop site is hard to find and Yelp doesnt remember your choice but instead keeps nagging users to use the mobile site or the app. Messages, Check Ins, Friends and Tips still dont work properly on the mobile site or app so you should stop preventing smartphone users from choosing the desktop site.

Love this app

I use a fair amount of apps but Yelp for me is by far the best app ever. I use it constantly when we go out or are planning to try something new.

This app is the worst. Dont download.

Youre getting this one star review because of your constant, annoying click bait on your website that pushes to the App Store. Your website is way better than the app (which totally sucks). I will never download it again because of your annoying push to try to force people to download it, even if its improved. Super annoying. Terrible app. Do not recommend.

Livet

Livet , Should say leave it. As in leave it alone. $40 entrée steak that came from the kitchen cold. A small hurricane of freezing cold wind every time the doors open. It would appear this restaurant is trying to be something it is not. Watched three people slip on the floor including one of the staff. $14 for french fries. I dont mind paying top dollar for top dollar cuisine ,but the food here was substandard. This place is going to be out of business in less than two years.

Love Yelp

This is the app I use most! Great companion to explore town, fun to have friendships with friends. Request: I often use map view with my bookmark. But hard to tell which is a restaurant and which is a temple. Also, if I can figure out 5 stars or not at a glance on map view, it would be very helpful.

Love love yelp

This is a huge help to find restaurants in the US. Accurate rating & always helpful. Thanks Yelp!!
