Beer Buddy Reviews

So BeerBuddy sends your EXACT location and even allows options for you to get directions to someone. I just downloaded BeerBuddy and all of a sudden had a “friend” added 2 states over from me. There’s no “remove friend” or “block” option, so now a total stranger can get directions to my house. This should be fixed because if the wrong people get ahold of that kind of info, it could be used for the wrong reasons (and I think you know what I mean by that). I’d love to give BeerBuddy another try if the next update is safer for the users. For now, I have chosen to delete it because I don’t want a stranger to show up on my doorstep.

I loved Beer Buddy when it had a feed that you could easily scroll through to see what your friends were drinking/posting. With the new update, there is no longer an easily accessible feed to scroll through your friends’ posts. Instead, the “feed” consists of unnecessarily long animations of zooming in on a globe to the location of where your friend is posting from and then, after a few seconds, their actual post appears. So scrolling through this “feed” consists of seeing that same animation of zooming in on the globe again and again… Gone is the ability to just simply scroll through the pictures your friends are posting…

Whoever thought this change was a good idea has obviously never used social media before and/or has never once thought about user experience. Who in the creative room said “you know what would be cool? forcing our users to look at a 6-second long animation of zooming in on a globe like they’re trying to find Carmen San Diego for every single post before they can see their friend’s picture. That’d be a great way to showcase how in touch we are with current social media design trends!” 🤦🏻

Please at least make the classic feed design optional for users in a future update.. until that happens, I won’t be hounding my friends to join the Beer Buddy community anytime soon.

The concept of seeing where your friends are while drinking is good, and the fact that it links to your Snapchat is cool so that you can see everyone’s bitmoji; however, there is a lot of room for improvements.

For one BeerBuddy isn’t intuitive to use.
- You should be able to see a list of all your Snapchat friends that already have BeerBuddy and simply be able to add them, not leave BeerBuddy to do so. You should also be able to have chat threads visible in BeerBuddy . You can send a message, but there is no way of seeing an actual thread thereafter.

Your exact location shouldn’t be sent out to people.
- I’m okay with people seeing my bitmoji on a map, but the fact that it sends your exact address to your friends is a little weird. The map should be similar to snapmap to where you can’t find someone’s exact address but can still generally see where they are.

There should be interactive activities included in BeerBuddy .
- like I said the concept is cool, but there’s nothing else you can really do except see where other people are. This doesn’t really help anything at this time bc of covid-19, so if interactive games or something could be included that’d be awesome.

I have loved using beer buddies with my friends. However, after a recent update I am very disappointed. I don’t like how the Home Screen works now. It used to be a feed similar to that of Instagram. Someone could post multiple times with multiple different captions. Now, you only get the chance to write one caption for a whole series of pictures you have to slide through. My friends loved the old layout because we could update each other with different posts and different captions and you didn’t miss out on anything. Please change it to where you can post multiple captions for multiple different photos instead of lumping everything into one post. This was prior to the 5.0 updates. Also, I miss seeing the map of where people are drinking. That was cool seeing how far you were from people. I really do love BeerBuddy but this new interface makes me not want to use it anymore.

It seems cool, but I was hoping it would show if others in my contact list we’re using BeerBuddy . It includes options are to invite friends by text or Snapchat. Personally, I’m not going to send out texts to my (mostly socially conservative) contacts that I want them to download a beer app. I was hoping it could be used to see if so-and-so old friend or acquaintance was out grabbing a drink and I could swing by to catch up. As it is, I’ll stick with just texting my close friends if I want to hang out.

When I started using Beer Buddy, it was simple. You click your drink, label it, and add one by one. Now, I don’t even know how to navigate through BeerBuddy . One thing you have to keep in mind, people are going to try to use BeerBuddy when absolutely trashed. It’s just not as user friendly as it used to be. Please, revert to how it was in 2021. Or integrate the old with the new somehow. I try to add 1 drink, and it just doesn’t make sense anymore.

I was becoming obsessed with BeerBuddy because of the ability to see random GLOBAL posts. It is intriguing to see how different cultures celebrate. We have our differences but we are very much the same. But i am disappointed to see that a recent update limits the radar to “within my area”. It would be nice to be able to remove this distance limitation.
No walls please :-)

BeerBuddy is the new thing among my friends and I think it will spread very quickly! I really do enjoy the “tally” of drinks under a friends name, and also that BeerBuddy connects to Snapchat. One of the places that needs improvement is the photo sharing on the feed. If you share a photo of a beer, then later share that you’re having a mixed drink without a photo, the beer shows up again. The old post then goes away and the new post can be liked again by the same people. I feel that every post should be separate, but the tally should be kept. That would be the easiest and most sensible fix. The buttons at the bottom of the screen (home, feed, etc.) could also be improved. But overall fantastic concept and definitely has great potential!

Only changes I would make is a weird set up with the photos, if I post a status with a photo of what I’m drinking (say a beer) then later on I want to post a status that I’m drinking a water, if I don’t put a photo with my water then the photo that shows up is my last drink, which was beer. Not a big deal but it’s kinda funky looking, wish it could just allow a plain status with no photo.

I’ve read a lot of the reviews and don’t really want to repeat what I’ve seen. I think there should be a way to change the name of your location, especially if you’re at home and don’t really want some people to know where you live. All my friends haven’t been to my house cause they’re in diff states

i love your app!! i look forward to using it and seeing what my friends are up to! i’ve taken some pictures on there i really want to save! it doesn’t seem to be a function please allow us to save to camera roll the pics we take on there!! thank you <3

I have been using BeerBuddy since the original version, and it was great until around 1 month ago. They keep adding terrible changes that make BeerBuddy insanely hard to use and making it far too public and harder to actually communicate with people.

BeerBuddy is awesome. The only thing I can ask for in the ability to delete drinks if they were posted by accident the ability to post without adding to the drink count and the ability to comment on posts! I hope all of these things can be added in the future!

BeerBuddy functions well and with future updates could easily become THE hottest app on college campuses. Whoever owns BeerBuddy I want in!

Find friends, strangers, drunks, and have fun doing it. You can share parties, find someone to bar hop with, and even maybe someone to share a "drink" with!

BeerBuddy can easily surpass Tinder or Facebook as the social app of the future for millennials and genZ!

Absolutely love BeerBuddy. Would love to see more users on it. A great tool for capturing memories that involve alcohol - I love getting to look back on my feed and keep track of the drinks I tried. I hope the developers continue to update and never abandon BeerBuddy. Would love to see a map that shows every drink you’ve tried and where.

Honestly just a genius specimen of innovation. I cannot aptly express into words how much I am invested in the success of BeerBuddy. This easily the best thing since Facebook and also sliced bread and it’s not even close. Good luck to you all. Fantastic people I wish you all the best and you deserve to be billionaires and also should probably be president of the United States if not sovereign rulers of the world at large.

It’s fun, it’s simple, and it makes me feel like I’m long-distance drinking with my friends. Highlights include getting a notification when I’m b*ll’s deep into a shift at work that my friend is drinking across the country at 2 pm on a Tuesday, and drunk messaging your friends. Honestly great especially during the pandemic- it makes me feel social again. Give it a shot (literally) ;)

I love BeerBuddy! My friends and I have a blast going back and forth to see who is better than the other. Only thing I don’t like about the latest update when iv had multiple drinks now it counts as one and it’s like Instagram. I like to keep racking up my count throughout the night. Not 1 and done. Other than that thanks for creating this beautiful app. So much fun.

I love BeerBuddy for the fun my friends and I have together with it. Also, BeerBuddy saved me a bunch of money recently. I was misharged for a drink at a football game ($180 more than it was supposed to be). When I initially disputed the charge with my credit card company, it was denied. I then redisputed by making a case using my beer buddies posts to build a timeline of the drinks that I bought. With this evidence, I won my claim. What an app

Definitely love using BeerBuddy. However there are still a couple issues that exist. Some photos are cut off from the sides when you post them with a drink, the ability to confirm before posting a drink would be greatly appreciated, and I believe the everyone and friends slider on the map is either swapped or is just hard to read since I always think I’m on friends when I’m actually on everyone.

Definitely needs more like stuff you can do on it. Has the potential to be a good app, but just boring. I wanna keep using it so add some stuff!!

Very good beer I like
a lot

Konge påfunn. Kunne ikke gitt nok lovord eller funnet nok superlativer for denne godgutten:)

in the process of making an account in the beginning it says “what is your name” and when I put my name and press next it says unauthenticated
