Yapp

Yapp is a practical choice when a team needs a simple event app quickly and cannot justify enterprise event-app pricing. It is strongest for agendas, speaker info, documents, maps, social feeds, and push updates; it is not a full registration, matchmaking, or exhibitor platform.

Honest Limitations

Per-App Pricing

Each app is priced annually, so many separate events can require volume planning.

Container App Model

Attendees access the app through Yapp's iOS and Android app rather than a fully custom app store listing.

Limited Enterprise Event Stack

Yapp does not replace registration, onsite check-in, lead retrieval, or hosted event community platforms.

Import Features Require Higher Plans

Content import, privacy, analytics, and team editing sit above the entry Basic tier.

Security Details Need Review

Public pages are stronger on app-building workflow than on data hosting and enterprise compliance specifics.

Pricing Breakdown
Plan Price Details
Basic $399/year One app, editor, dynamic template pages, unlimited installs, one administrator, chat and email support
Core $649/year Adds content import, post scheduling, app privacy, app analytics, video uploads on social feed, and priority support
Team $799/year Adds multiple admins, social feed moderation, team editing, and volume discount eligibility

Hidden Costs to Watch

  • ! $50 processing fee for check or wire payments
  • ! Staff time to load agendas, speakers, sponsors, maps, and documents
  • ! Potential duplicate app costs for multi-event programs
  • ! Separate tools for registration, ticketing, badge scanning, or matchmaking

Yapp is a strong budget-conscious event app when the main job is replacing paper programs with a clean mobile guide. Its transparent pricing and quick builder make it approachable for small teams that cannot run a long vendor selection.

The main decision is scope. If you need registration, lead retrieval, matchmaking, or a fully branded enterprise app, Yapp is likely too light; if you need schedules, resources, maps, and push updates, it is refreshingly direct.
