Pretty good app. We can check everything that is trending on college campus

Completely changed everything that mattered about yik yak. Its like a tumblr ripoff now. The “community” used to be people around you, now you just choose subreddits. Waste of a great idea, all they had to do was monitor the yaks a lil to prevent hate or threats and it wouldve been great.

I like the app to check in on and help get questions answered. I’d encourage app developers to consider user experience further. The space can be incredibly toxic/disturbing at times and, depending on user make-up, features can be exploited like mass down votes to get posts and comments deleted that have merit.
Update: changed to one-star. I wasn’t asked to verify my school with a proper email and I think that’s contributing to the user experience I’m seeing. App used to be a lot better.

I love this app and use it daily but if I could change things it would be that we would be allowed to see our following list, see who’s following us, and see who we have blocked.

THEY KILLED YIKYAK NOOOOO
Please I wanted to see what’s up in my local community. Why are you trying to be Reddit now?? HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN THE ORIGINAL MISSION??

All I said was “the avg person is fat”
Now I’m banned for 24 hours

Looking for a social media platform that'll leave you feeling frustrated? YikYak is your ticket. This app imitates the likes of Twitter and Reddit without adding anything new. Its only selling point, the university server feature, turned out to be a nightmare.
I joined YikYak to connect with students on my university’s server, but a glitch logged me out, and I discovered the app locks you out for a whopping 90 days if you dare to log out of your university, making it impossible for me to access the server for 3 months. Despite numerous attempts to contact support, they've completely ignored me.
If you’re not a university student, save yourself the trouble and stick to Reddit as it’s literally the same thing but better, even Twitter/X is a better experience – they're light-years ahead of this platform.

Terrible content moderation, terrible community, terrible filtering system. The exact opposite of 2A
