This app was so easy to use and it was just what my friends needed when we were fighting over who would sit where at our big group dinner! This allowed us to randomly shuffle seating and text everyone their assigned spot! It was AWESOME!

Thanks so much for your review - we’re really glad the app helped out with your group dinner! That exact situation is what we built it for, so it’s great to hear it made things easier (and maybe saved a few arguments too). Appreciate you taking the time to write this.- Austin Frankel
Not good. Buggy and bad design features
ewanders
Just bought this and am very disappointed. It feels like the app was put out with minimal development. Very buggy. You can’t enter numbers for the size of the table, instead you have to use the slider and +/- buttons. The - button doesn’t always work. Once you set values it sometimes just reverts back to the previous value. It doesn’t list out all the guests when you import from CSV. It just assigns tables and whomever doesn’t end up at a table isn’t imported. It would be great if the list were imported in a column and then there would be a drag a drop to tables for the whole list. Sorry I purchased this…it’s making my seat planning much more difficult.
Developer Response
Thank you for taking the time to write this. I’m genuinely sorry that Seat Maker made your seating process more difficult, especially after you paid for the app. The issues you described are not the experience we want anyone to have.I took your feedback seriously and used it directly to make several changes. We’ve now added direct number entry for table sizes, fixed the unreliable +/- controls and values reverting, improved CSV importing so every guest is retained, and added a persistent Unassigned Guests list where you can see the full imported list and drag guests directly onto tables. These changes will be live in the next 48 hours.Your review was extremely helpful in identifying where the app fell short. If you’re willing to give the updated version another try once it’s available, I would really appreciate it, and I hope the improvements change your experience with Seat Maker.

If you’re planning a wedding then you need to try this app. I had a running excel sheet with hundreds of rows. This made seating so easy and fast!!
