Major Highlights of the Week

Vendor Limitations
The app's vendor marketplace lacks comprehensive local options, forcing users to manually search for vendors outside the app. This limitation is particularly frustrating for users in smaller or non-U.S. locations.
The Vendor choice lists are BEYOND limited, with more than half being not from our area.
RSVP Issues
The RSVP functionality is unreliable, with users reporting that guest responses are not recorded or reset, leading to confusion and frustration. This issue complicates guest management and communication.
Guest RSVPs randomly resetting, registry items randomly unlinking or not updating correctly.
App Crashes
Frequent app crashes and loading issues hinder users' ability to manage their wedding plans effectively, causing significant frustration. These technical problems make the app unreliable for consistent use.
The app is always down, it never works, the RSVP text system is terrible.
Customization Limits
Users are unable to fully customize their wedding websites and communications, limiting personalization. This restriction affects the user experience, especially for those with specific design preferences.
I wish there was an option that would allow user to choose their ceremony in a more thorough way.
Guest List Management
The app's guest list management is cumbersome, requiring users to click each name individually to view details, which is inefficient for large events. This lack of streamlined functionality wastes users' time.
There’s no way to see the full guest list and their addresses all in one place.
Budget Tool Removal
The removal of the budget tracking feature has frustrated users who relied on it for financial planning. This change has left users without a critical tool for managing wedding expenses.
Very upset they got rid of the budgeter part of the planning! I was heavily using that and lost all my data!!

Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

The app is just OK—it could use some UX improvements. It is quite difficult and unintuitive to navigate, and many functionalities such as browsing and editing stationery are only available on desktop. The app is extremely buggy and in recent weeks will show the message ‘an error has occurred’ whenever I try to do anything in the app, rendering it basically useless.

This app works great for getting started but the website is so buggy in so many ways. Once people started submitting RSVPs and I started adding more and more info, links, dates to the website the worse everything got. It’s almost unusable.
Jdvbalaksbsbsjan
The Knot is an absolutely wonderful planning tool, but the app is not. More often than not it crashes on me and doesn’t allow me to search or make edits. In my opinion, it has a better organization for the RSVP section than the browser, but half the time it won’t work for me.
