Never had any issues with this app until the recent update. Now it's not showing any of my history. None of the groups I've joined, events I attended, things I'm interested in and messages won't load. I've been using meet up on and off since 2014 and you'd never be able to tell outside of my profile pic. Which, when clicked on, says I don't have but clearly shows on the homepage.

The recent updates are horrible! I get notifications for every event for every single group I'm in... Multiple times. I go in to update notifications and it takes me to the app notification settings in my phone's settings. I want to get notified about the events I'm attending and messages, not every single event in every group! I have some apps that host multiple events per day, so that's a LOT of unwanted annoying notifications. And putting EVERYTHING behind a paywall is ridiculous. DO BETTER!

Irritating notifications to sign up for Meetup+. Other than that the app is good but every time you click on somebody that you can't see it pops up with a notification to join Meetup Plus, you can still x out of it and see the person or thing you're trying to see but it is irritating. How about one notification when we open up the app and let us close out of it?
