Posting to a social feed or Crowd Pics page

How to post text, a photo or a video from the Yapp app on your phone or tablet.

Written by Cyril Fluck

You post from the Yapp app on your phone or tablet. There is no way to post from a computer.

How to post

  1. Open the app and go to the page you want to post to.

  2. Tap the pencil icon in the top right corner.

  3. Write your text, and add a photo or a video if you want one.

  4. Tap Post.

Posting happens in the background, so you can carry on using your phone. If you leave the app while a photo or video is still uploading, opening Yapp again speeds it up.

Photos and videos

You can add one photo or one video to a post.

A video can be up to 5 minutes long. If you pick a longer one, the app tells you before it tries to upload it. Video is available on apps whose creator is on a Core or Team plan — see Video on social feed pages.

If you cannot see the pencil icon

The app's creator decides who can post to each page. If there is no pencil icon, that page is set so only the app's admins can post. Announcements pages usually work that way, so that important updates do not get lost among other posts.

Changing or removing something you posted

Posting from outside the app

On an iPhone or iPad you can share a photo or video to Yapp straight from another app. See posting from the iOS share sheet.
