The Real Yellow Pages - YP Reviews

by Racing Cajun Bear

Completely unreliable. Refuses to work with anything less than a full-strength wifi signal. A hint to developers — lots of people want to find businesses when they’re away from home and only have a cellular data connection available. And the search is messed up. I actually spelled out what I was looking for and had numerous matches pop up. Since the location I was looking for wasn’t displayed, I hit ‘return’, and was greeted with a “No matches” error message. Tried to search for a different named business, and it kept going back to searching for the first item I’d searched for — even though I’d previously deleted it.

I’ve been using TheRealYellowPages for a whole one minute yet it has repeatedly nagged me to review TheRealYellowPages four times. This is my first time using TheRealYellowPages I don’t know if I like TheRealYellowPages yet. And I certainly don’t like being attacked with a request for my opinion before I actually use it. I can tell you right off every time you search and then click on one of the search results and go back there is a page turning animation that’s completely unnecessary and just slows down the usage of TheRealYellowPages . So the only think I can say is that TheRealYellowPages is annoying so far. I wasn’t planning on writing a negative review but you did ask four times so you received my honest opinion.

It used to be simple to locate my brother, my mother, and if necessary, a friend or two who might not be on “The World’s Directory”. You know: Facebook! NOW ever since Dex “became” YP they’re good for finding a pizza or someone to plunge the toilet and fix the piping after that pizza. But don’t try finding family!

And on THEIR OWN MAIN PAGE is a direct link asking you and me (grammatically correct) to “Please Write a Review. That’s How We Improve, blah, blah, blah”. That link to give them a review doesn’t lead ANYWHERE!! Hmmmm.... convenient? I sure would like to gather some addresses this (late) time of year before Christmas, so I can spend loads of money getting my late presents to the correct addresses (plural). I’ll NOW have to visit TheRealYellowPages Store and shop for a REPLACEMENT Directory App to replace ‘this old worn out one that seems to have given all it can give in this life and just needs to be retired with AOL, Blackberry, and Prodigy’.

The new version is a problem on iOS 13 with no place to report a problem. Will not show what is being typed on the screen. I’ve tried reinstalling TheRealYellowPages but it didn’t work. The developer apparently is not watching for problems but then again with no place to report a problem everything looks great. I’d give this a five star review but with no place to report a problem that’s not going to happen until they get a fix and a report page . Sorry !

I love TheRealYellowPages , & the quick info I came to trust enohI could find a public number quickly. hkHowever,
eed upw/ more people than ever at home, now is taNOT the time to rest on work well done. ESPECIALLY there are other apps vying for the tsame
eh "crowd". Last week, I needed to call an area , hospital about out-patient testing. At 10am, I
,called the number I got from my trusty YP app.
The phone rang for ever, but no answer
the number every 1/2 hour until 2'oclock pm.
This can't be the right number, I thought.
I figured as I put the number in my phone, I ilikely transposed 2 numbers I looked at the olisting, as I checked the number I entered. I'd a xno mistake. YP had the WRONG NUMBER
thLISTED! I chose to check the website for a
different listing. A sense of familiarity came to
mind when I saw the number & recalled how
many times I dialed the number with such an
odd prefix.

I then pressed to see what
, I thoughtthe listing on the website was, & numberthere, as a sense of familiarity cAme to mind, I recalled
how many times over the years I dialed that pre
fix. I dialed again, & my call was promptly answered.

Hello. I’m disappointed with TheRealYellowPages. I am blind, and cannot read a phone book. I thought TheRealYellowPages would be helpful, and it would be, except that in order to complete creating an account, using the mobile app, with VoiceOver, and an iPhone 13, you have to verify your identity by confirming that you visually see a picture on the screen. This is not possible for blind people using screen readers, that can not read pictures. TheRealYellowPages is inaccessible, and I’m annoyed. Please fix this so everyone can use TheRealYellowPages. Thank you. Rating of 1.

I like TheRealYellowPages and the design layout. Search appears to work fine. My problem and the reason I gave it only 3 stars was my inability to verify my e-mail address. I have requested it to be sent multiple times and it never shows in my mail. I’ve checked the spam folder etc. but nothing shows. Due to this my review’s are not being published.
I’ve used YELP for years and never had an issue like this.
Unless I can get some assistance I will be deleted and going back to YELP.

I use YP regularly and probably would have a rough time without it. It has everything I need to get me through my trips and even while at home to find phone numbers, addresses and directions. There are a few quirks that is aggravating but nothing major. The main one is trying to keep your location while looking for different names of places and so forth. I can’t explain it but use it a few times for multiple businesses and you will see what I mean. It’s nothing major but gets annoying. The other pain in the anus is every time you go back to get another listing from looking at one you have to start over. If you look up Walmart in say Lexington KY and you click on one Walmart and realize it’s on the wrong side of town, when you go back to get another listing you have to start over by typing name of business and location. Kinda goes along with the first thorn in my side but it is a different beast in itself. Even with these aggravating issues YP is still an invaluable app that can be very beneficial for home, work or vacation.

The RYP application is a solid resource for those looking up establishments that may be near them whether they are restaurants, theaters, medical care, transportation, etc. TheRealYellowPages has a clean design interface that is easy to navigate. TheRealYellowPages allows you to share info with others as well as make personal notes on businesses you may be interested in. TheRealYellowPages also makes it easy to shop or get what you need with an integration of popular services such as Uber, GrubHub and Fandango. Another neat addition is of coupons and deals you can view and use from nearby local businesses. The Real Yellow Pages is a step up from past Yellow Page applications.

Always helps me out, where ever I may be,
From SoCal to Denver, and anywhere in between, like Rock Springs Wyoming, my truck breaks down, then suddenly I’m looking for a place for the weekend instead of being at home. Like the old saying went “ let your fingers do the walking through the yellow pages. Today our fingers are doing the walking on this keyboard. Thanks, one of my tools, to handle the job. Best download so far out of many. Tool

The YP is very good and I give it the 5 star since I can look anything up all over the Country , But a few times the information is wrong and B/c of COVID the information has change ,and sometimes I look up information and cannot find the places I am looking for, but all in all it’s a great App.

Can’t see text in TheRealYellowPages on iPhone XS Max. Kind of totally useless. If you put your iPhone in dark mode you can’t see the text.

Can you fix this please? That should have been an easy fix long ago.

I’ll switch to a different app if I can find one that works in dark mode.

We just left big Mike’s (Saturday 2:40). Cashier (Latika) was so rude to us and another couple after us. We went back up to place a to go order and she (surprisingly) was very nice to the couple before us and us! My husband noticed the manager was standing right there!!! She should NOT be interacting with customers unless the manager is overseeing her...

We noticed another female employee speaking very rude and disrespectful to a male fry cook out on the front where all of the customers could see and here.

Horrible atmosphere today because of these 2 employees!!

The food was great, but next time will order to go!!!

Very convenient and easy to use. Easy to pull up a business and get contact information, phone number, and address with link to maps for directions. Only downside is many of the businesses listed on the yellow pages app are outdated!!

The Yellow gage did bring their best known on business advertising and made it up to date with the mixed of the e-commerce and the old days of Yellow pages listing.
I love the Yellow pages when I first stayed in America and it was the most popular small local business to large corporations. They did migrate the information to the internet revolution

I often times think that without YP yellow pages we other simpler people like myself would have absolutely no foothold, and could no perceivable function without a company as YP does to mediate between the public as they do Awesomely have been for many years and many more to come.

I have been trying for a week to get ahold of a local dental (Affordable Dentures) office, but with the pandemic, no local dentists are taking new patients, and the local office is not answering their phones. Finally, through your app, I was able to contact their national office and secure the next available local appointment, which is a great relief. Thank you!

by Magickack

I have found this YP app to be very useful for finding businesses and then linking to my maps app for accurate directions. The only downside is that many businesses have closed shop recently and are still listed on TheRealYellowPages, but that is understandable considering the present volatility and vulnerability of brick and mortar businesses due to the effects of fear of covid 19.

I’ve been steered wrong with Yelp a lot and I use Yellow Pages all the time now. They are usually pretty good. There are some businesses that are not updated however I think they’re more reliable than Yelp. I recommend calling the business before you go there, just to be sure they where Yellow Pages has them.

by Imbjhoff2

Love TheRealYellowPages it’s a God send. Since almost everything is mobile as far as phones are concern, I can at least I can find numbers for doctors or businesses I need. Use it MANY TIMES a day to look up numbers, check store or doctors hours, even what’s playing at the movies, or the menu of s certain restaurant. Great app!!!!

It keeps saying it sent me a verification email that I need to click on to confirm my address. There is no email. Not in Spam, Trash, Inbox, or otherwise. The address is correct that it's sending to. I've clicked on "resend verification email" 20 times. I can't email YP about this because it says my email is not setup. The hours it has for my business is wrong. It won't let me change them. TheRealYellowPages and this company are total garbage. User interface has not been tested properly. How Alexa/Bing draws info from this source is astounding.

Update: a week later and still nothing. No way to contact YP. TheRealYellowPages is a dead end for businesses. Total crap.

Update: 3 months later. TheRealYellowPages is still showing the wrong hours and website info for my business. I suggest edits and nothing comes of it. It says I'm closed on days I'm open. Yellow Pages is worse than useless. It is actually damaging to business.

by Ceetfart

I absolutely love TheRealYellowPages. No more trying to find the phone book or not having #’s for the right city. I always have my phone so even when I’m out I can still find what I need, plus with the additional option to gps somewhere is extremely useful when I’m away from home. Thanks, Briana

by Rainelda

I use this every day. Perfect for searching and (most helpful) instantly adding to contacts! It’s the absolute best way to do this as opposed to typing everything in. At times the information MAY be outdated so it’s a good idea to double check at website but so seldom that I won’t deduct a star. I love this!

by MatthewBrown_567

I downloaded the YP app today on my iPhone I like TheRealYellowPages overall but the problem is that the locations is not updated some are update but some of them are not update and that needs to be fix & corrected thank you!!!!!!!

My sisters & I are delighted we chose Arab Stone Works to make our family headstones. Kenan was very friendly & personable & gave us excellent advice. He helped with every aspect of the stones from creation, design, & sandblasting to delivery.
We are very pleased with the results and highly recommend Arab Stone Works to anyone who wants excellent, professional results.

I don’t want to write a review, but can’t get your pop-up to go away. I gave you a four star, but this is making me lean toward a zero star. And now it requires a nickname to send. But it won’t accept my choice, no matter how many times I try. I am leaning toward hating you, now.
