I’ve been using Mappen since the app came out in 2017. I used it a couple times while living in DC, but it was still buggy at that time. Since then, I’ve watched how the developers have adjusted the app and made it more useful. Mappen does a great job letting you know that you don’t have to spend your Friday alone on the couch watching the Office on Netflix for the 63rd time. It gives one notification on Friday night that tells you to get out of the house. After opening the app, you can decide to go out and invite your friends without that “what are you up to?” text (I know you’ve sent those texts, don’t lie to me 😜). It makes getting out and being social that makes easier, because you have had plenty of Friday nights watching Netflix. All in all, huge improvements in the past few months!

An app for all!
Mappen is an interesting app, I would recommend it to all trying to make plans with friends over the summer, or to parents wanting to see what their child is up to during the day. This app us good to help kids when there board, kind of like when I am bored I go on there and I add to my status that I am board, and some friends will text me and we will have a conversation. The only reason this app got 4 stars was due to the frustration it caused when I was trying to figure out how the app worked. Overall it is a great app and it helped me hangout with my school and soccer friends multiple times this summer and because of that I would recommend this app to all. Thank you for reading my review!

Such a fun, interactive, and SAFE app!!!
Not sure what some of the fuss is about! This app is such a great way to interact with your friends all over. You can easily hit them with a “WYD” or “let’s meet up”. It’s also SO convenient for big group hangouts! All you have to do is invite people on the app, no need for giant mass texts with people who might not know each other, or texting loads of people individually. You can also directly message through the app. Love love LOVE this fun way of bringing people together for real face to face interactions :) really is a great way to facilitate technology to bring people closer. I’d recommend this app to everybody!!
