## Butter Description
Butter is where plans happen with people who actually show up.

Your friends are busy, flaky or just not into hot yoga at 7am on a Tuesday. We get it. Butter connects you with people nearby who are already planning the things you want to do - from supper clubs to morning hikes to that niche film screening nobody in your group chat cares about.

How it works:
Discover: Explore clubs, plans and ideas happening around you. Think of it as a feed for your social life - curated by real people.
Join: Something catch your eye? Request a place, or save it for when the mood strikes.
Host: Have a thing? Post it and make it happen. The right people will come to you.
Chat: Get to know everyone before you show up; no walking in cold.

Why we’re different:
You stop waiting on your group chat. No more ‘who’s in?’ followed by silence. On Butter, people are already interested - that’s why they’re here.
It’s not Meetup and it’s not a dating app. It’s smaller, more intentional, and nobody’s standing around in a circle wearing name tags. We're for the plans you’d make with friends, but with people you haven’t met yet.

Melbourne, Sydney, LA. More cities soon.

## Butter Reviews in Australia

### ****- "Good idea, execution needs work"
I enjoy butter for hosting and finding cool new events to attend, and connecting with people. But the last couple of weeks, the app has been so slow and sometimes non-functional. This is very stressful when you’re hosting or attending events because you can’t get in contact with people. I hope they can resolve this soon.
-- Amanda90844, 2026-09-05

### *---- "Buggy"
On an iPhone - the app crashes and refuses to open without being redownloaded. Great idea though but non ideal execution.
-- Anzietop, 2026-08-27

### *---- "Slow"
Extremely slow to load. Every single time. Plz fix! It’s not my phone, it’s the app
-- Melbourne3837, 2026-08-17

### ****- "Good but needs work"
I feel like there are some flaws in this app with the notification system. I wish I had the ability to mute people without unfriending them. I don’t need to be notified about every single activity that every single person on my friends list joins. You really need to be able to customise notifications otherwise I’ve resorted to turning them all off because it’s just getting unbearable. There are other buggy things that happen such as the app prompting me to confirm my attendance to an event that has already passed or has been cancelled.
-- dcy_96, 2026-07-14

### ****- "Great app for the people"
Love the app, but it's not a 5 because some bugs need to be ironed out and a bit more money invested in usability. Otherwise, it beats Meetup and Facebook events fair and square. I hope it stays true to its roots once it goes commercial. Good luck!
-- Zhauranak, 2026-05-20

### *---- "Great concept"
Be great if the ‘magic’ link didnt continually say its expired. Be good to simply get into the app.   Just let me set a password; not that hard
-- Usernamechecks1223, 2026-02-19

### ***-- "Changing States"
Hi, I like the concept of this app. I downloaded it because I am moving to Melbourne end of January and would like to meet new people. I downloaded it and tested it on my current place that I live Perth. Perth is locked though which is fine if that how the apps meant to work. But I am moving to Melbourne soon and I don’t see a way to change my location from Perth to Melbourne? It’s just stuck saying Perth is still locked. I would like to change it to Melbourne please so I can meet new people in a new city.
-- Jak Amber, 2026-01-06

### ***-- "Good idea, but limited options at this time"
Sometimes you get a group interested in an idea, but you may feel you only resonate with one or two people in the group. Would be great if you could create a side chat or one on one chat with people you are interested in to perhaps plan something with individually. Or add friends so you can create mutual friendships.
-- nj/567838383, 2025-11-04

### ****- "I like the idea of this app"
I am someone that has organised events in the past and I am not surprised that a lot of the people that RSVP flake out of events it’s really hard to put in all the effort and people don’t show up. I feel like there should be some kind of thing in place for people that constantly RSVP and then. Don’t show up or remove themselves hours before the event and ghost or don’t give any reasonable explanation. This aside I have met a few lovely people and hope to continue doing so .
-- Renazanayz, 2025-10-22

### *---- "Feels like Facebook meetup groups"
I was really keen to try this to expand my social circles, but honestly this is starting to feel like Facebook meetup groups in an app. Except those meetup groups even in melb have tens of thousands more people…
-- Paddlepop1234, 2025-08-27

### *---- "Don’t bother!!"
You join a group and it states that it needs to reach 300 before your group can launch. However my group almost hit the 300 and suddenly we’re back to needing 243 to go. 

Also according to the app my group has 57 people signed up of the needed 300 but we’re apparently 51% there!!! What a joke. Don’t bother downloading you’ll never get to use it. 

It’s honestly giving data collecting pyramid scheme. 

I do not trust any of the positive reviews at all!!
-- Unhappy player:(, 2025-08-19

### ***-- "denied?!?"
love the concept of this and was so excited to make an event and meet new people, but came to find out when you say “maybe next time” to someone who rsvp’d it says they’ve been denied for the event

i understand you can’t have everyone at an event but this just seems mean and unnecessary for people wanting to make connections and new friends. 

please change this!
-- naomizig, 2025-08-15

### ***** "Love this app"
Feels much more sincere and less commercialised than other social platforms. Browsing through the variety of events, from dinner parties to fun run clubs, making it easy to connect with real people and authentic experiences. Highly recommend for anyone who moved cities recently and looking to make genuine connections.
-- Sid Gunner, 2025-07-24

### ***** "The app I needed"
Moving to a new city and making new friends as an adult it’s always tough. Now it’s easier to find like-minded people and fun activities to do.
-- oliveirale, 2025-07-24

### ***** "New city, new things to do"
Just started working in the city for the first time. Had some things I’ve wanted to do and no one to do them with … then butter popped up! Loving it
-- Orrin Melbourne, 2025-07-23

### ***** "Awesome app"
Have been using this app to meet friends and it’s been awesome
-- Leelagdameo, 2025-07-23

### *---- "Pyramid scheme"
What in the heckin pyramid scheme is this? The app doesn’t let you do anything at all until you bring in 300 other folks to sign up. Not 10, not 25 — like 300 people. Bro, like if I knew 300 people I wouldn’t be on these apps trying to make plans. Avoid this app like a plague.
-- Totosaurus, 2025-04-29

### ***** "Exactly what I was looking for."
Butter is really the app I was excited about and it fully delivered. Easy to use, quality plans, great people. Looking forward to seeing it grow.
