This used to be a great app, but now that it is linked with Yelp it requires re-sign-in, re-entry of getting in line, and does not update my Place In Line. Even the text message that comes from the restaurant forces me back to a page with no info on it, just a link to Yelp which does not have my place in line! Uninstalling.
I downloaded this to book at a resturant and it couldn't find the resturant. It just spun and spun "searching" and it tries to force you to go to yelp, which is another app that I don't have room to download. It's a worthless app, don't waste your time.
This app gives a false sense of hierarchy. After checking in with the app, the app tells me to arrive at the restaurant WAAAAY before my table is ready. "No wait" often turns into "wait 30-40 minutes"
Garbage app that for three years will not auto update as a wait changes. You literally have to close the app and reopen it to get any updates on a wait status.
Called ahead and they said 10 minute wait and to use this app to get on the waiting list. This app said there is no wait and wouldn't let me get on the waiting list. Then I got to the restaurant and there's a 15 minute wait.
Junk. Downloaded the app as required to check my restaurants wait time and it makes everything redirect to yelp. Don't bother.
This app was great, if somewhat glitchy, but now they've been swallowed up by yelp. Uninstalling and probably will look to other services like find me a table
App does not work (said no wait when there was actually an hour wait). Does not allow you to put your name on a wait list if it shows no wait.
Please re-separate Nowait from Yelp. No wait has a very good looking design, had one purpose it did exceptionally well, and was responsive and nice. Yelp has none of those strengths.
The app doesn't show when searching using the Play Store. I use Google search to find the app to install.
If restaurant has no wait you cannot get on the wait list. This frequently results in arriving just to find that there is now a wait.
Nowait had always been a great app and very useful, but Yelp is garbage and it's unfortunate that you guys thought it a good idea to integrate.
App is shut down, but still takes your personal info and logs it.
Keeps crashing. Its an important app please update it.
why is this still in the store? why does it collect info only to redirect to another app? this has to violate store tos
Here's a perfect example of how an acquisition can ruin your app. Yelp has become an intrusive presence that has made this app impossible to use. I'm sure the original designers cringed as they saw what Yelp had in mind. Ugh.
absolute trash, after setup it makes you go to Yelp. There I found out the eatery I was trying to get in line for, Yelp didn't offer this feature for.
Useless Garbage. Don't have people download the app and then force them to use the Yelp app instead. I want nothing to do with Yelp, and I will not be using this service because of that. Thanks for wasting my time.
was a good app, im never using Yelp unless they make their website mobile compatible.
The app showed no wait for several restaurants, yet they all had at least a half hour wait.
100% will not ever install the yelp app. Write or call your favorite restaurants and suggest changing to something else. yelp is toxic.
restaurant didn't acknowledge time noted in app. pointless.
It makes you register, just to tell you that the app is shutting down and to use Yelp instead. Why is this app on the Play Store if it's unusable?
This app basically never works. It loads forever, and on the off chance that it actually shows up with the restaurant I want, it will bring up a rating option for the last restaurant I visited and wont let me do anything until I've rated it. Sometimes it will then let me continue to the waitlist. Other times I have to exit out of the app and go back in, hoping it will actually load. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing multiple times and it doesn't change. Annoying.
