After using it for over three month, I can write a broad review about Ryver . It is the worst, Ryver does not send messages fast and are delay, you’ll get a notification of a received message and when you do open Ryver there are none message; you’ll have to close and reopen Ryver just to see a message.
Beside that it’ll logout without a reason, its connection is not stable. Another issue, if you open it during a call or listening to radio in your car, it will mute all sounds. I believe it has been the first app that I feel the need to write a review so they can improve it.

I use it because there isn’t an alternative. But it’s buggy as heck.

Ryver/service is obviously trying so hard to be a ripoff of Slack, and it fails so incredibly bad. Their iOS app hasn’t been updated in a year. The web service is slow, buggy, and constantly drops messages. Integrations are non-existent, and channels are a confusing mess of permissions and visibility.
Seriously. Avoid this app at all costs. Whatever money you think you’re going to save will be more than outweighed by now much your coworkers are going to hate using this service.

Decent app but should have seen the free version going away. No way I would have invested effort to the ecosystem if they hadn’t claimed free was their model.

Ryver is clearly wrapping a website. When you scroll to the top, the conversation jumps to nonsensical sections of the chat. The scrolling is also janky when looking through messages.

In iOS 15 the only way to load Ryver is to force quit it and reopen it. Also, forced landscape mode? Awful. Is this even supported anymore, or is it time to move to a competitor?
by CubanAppleCrisis
Love this app, but it’s really annoying that the only way to get it to load is by tapping the icon, immediately swiping away application to close it, then open it again. If you don’t do that it just sits on loading eternally.

For the most part it functions very much the same as slack. Except for some details - that are definitely noticed / missed.
1- there's no way to change the push notifications sounds for mobile app iOS. Making it hard to know if it's a text or a this app message.
2-there's not a way to change the timing of the "auto-away" setting.
Those are the ones that i think of daily. I hope to see that change soon.

Please change the loading animation on launch. 😑😑😑

We really wanted to like Ryver, however most of the people in our organization were using it from mobile devices primarily. In order to receive push notifications on mobile, you must be mentioned in a comment. This is by design and I understand it, but for a simple conversation to take place in Ryver means continually mention each other or stare at your phone and wait for a response. It just wasn't ideal for us. Forum specific notification settings for all activity would give Ryver/service 5 stars.

Amazing app but needs support for Google keyboard on iOS. It works but small bugs that hide the chat composer when using Gboard.

Used as a communication platform in my nonprofit. There are a few issues, like the fact that you can only message one other person (no group messaging unless an admin creates that group for you.). It can also get messy since anyone can create a topic. But it’s useful and a has a clean interface.

After searching through committee emails that were 10+ threads long I knew something had to be out there. Someone suggested another app like this and while looking for that I stumbled on this app. Tried both and am convinced this app is the best for me and our organization.
Simple invitations for committee members and necessary friends of our committee.
Thank You this app for keeping it simple and effective!

I’ve only been using this app for a short while. That said, a group of us are migrating from Slack to this app and so far I prefer this app. “Topics” (the forum-like section of Ryver ) is a great feature and has already come in handy for our group. My only complaints (which are small, and not worth downgrading Ryver to 4 stars) are:
- When using the Smart Keyboard with the iPad Pro, pressing “Enter” doesn’t send a chat message. It just drops you to the next line. I feel like if I’m using an external keyboard, the “Enter” key should be used to send messages (or this should at least be configurable).
- Ryver has some minor display bugs. When editing a pinned Topic, sometimes the Topic drops below other, non-pinned Topics. This is fixed by simply refreshing the interface.
Overall this is a very solid app and service. It will get my recommendation over Slack from now on.

I use Ryver for a robotics team that I mentor. We love using it because it is a secure place where our students can communicate with us. We also enjoy the fact that we can break our students into committees and place them into their own chat group that we can monitor for safety reasons. Students enjoy using it because they are always up-to-date on when their meetings are and how they can find their team members. It is simple and easy to use!

We've moved from email over to this app to manage conversations with our clients, and it's made it MUCH easier to keep track of threaded conversations. After each meeting, we post an update in this app and assign tasks to everyone. It's nice having everything in one place so we don't have to search through emails for info.
