PLANNING WITH FRIENDS SHOULDN’T TAKE THIS MUCH EFFORT
You want to see your friends more, but coordinating and finding a day everyone’s free feels impossible. The hundreds of messages. The back-and-forth. The “are you free?” loops that go nowhere.
Howbout takes all of that off your plate.
So instead of juggling conversations and trying to piece things together in your head… you can just open the app and see what’s possible — and actually make your plans happen

Experience ruined from the setup
terasetydruk
The setup absolutely ruined the experience to the point where I deleted the app before ever getting to try it out.The fact that you HAVE TO send an invite link to three people to even get to make a profile and use the app is ridiculous and very pathetic.I usually don’t leave reviews to apps at all and sometime do when I have something great to say… With bad apps I just delete them but this was just unfair…. Didn’t even get to try it out because well sorry but I really do not want to nor feel the need to send invitations for an app to 3 of my friends or family if I don’t even know if it’s any good 😕🥲
Developer Response
We're sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience eon Howbout 😔We’ve seen our users have a much better experience if their friends join at the start too, so we’re encouraging users to add their friends when they sign up so they can get straight to sharing 😊 We're limited to word count here annoyingly, but our support team can give you a hand with getting into the app support@howbout.app 🫶
