The Yapp app is used for many occasions and events to prevent getting lost and reduce confusion between individuals. The YMCA Youth and Government program uses the Yapp to indicate the times, dates, and locations of certain conferences and meeting areas to stay connected with all members. There are unlimited features to the Yapp which make it the go to navigation application. Providing maps, schedules and documents to find specific resources helps improve students, teachers, advisors, and parents from drifting to confusion and creates a clear understanding of what is happening within the group. To cure the uncertainty that might be caused when traveling or even getting a hold of staff, the Yapp helps Youth and Government programs run smoothly and efficiently. Ever forgot where you were going during conference? Got lost on the way? Forgot which room you had to go to? The Yapp has all the rooms and times to be there, so you don’t miss an important meeting. The many resources included within the different sections of the app contains legislative bills, candidates, speakers, resources for
every branch along with award photos. Several courts and other schedules are incorporated inside the “conference schedule” icon. An interview from a fellow delegate stated that the Yapp app helped them in various ways to better understand the new environment they were getting into. A few words from our delegate, “I appreciate that the YMCA program is involved with Yapp because it is such a life saver.“ Nevertheless, Youth and Government is proud to have the Yapp app to manage their many activities included.
