4.0.7
It’s here. The version you’ve been waiting for. Trust us when we say that Version 4 is the most exciting development for Yuggler. You don’t want to miss out on it!
If you’ve found an activity you like, but still need to plan a half-day, full day, weekend or even an entire trip, Yuggler is here to help. The super fast access to the information you need is now available. Just open the activity details, and find nearby activities, similar activities, nearby deals, activities that others liked and your nearby bookmarks or favorites in the same screen. If that’s not enough? Never fear! Simply navigate quickly to Near By or Top Charts for more displaying results that match the displayed activity's location.
Are you tired of accessing multiple information sources to find out the whole scoop about an activity? Never again! Introducing “now open” hours directly displayed within the activity detail screen.
Still need to quickly access info from the provider’s website, Google Maps page or Facebook page? One click brings you right to the source of your desire.
But hold on - that’s not all!
Do you live in Manhattan or Hoboken and don’t want to travel across the river for a simple storytime event? Our new search is as precise as possible to help you avoid expense or time consuming commutes. Introducing the ability to filter out activities from bordering cities or bordering states, allowing you to only view activities within your area. Amazing! This works for any city or state that has large obstacles to other cities and states like a river, a lake, a mountain or a desert - whatever it may be - you will no longer get spammed with activities in an area that is not easily accessible.
Wait, there is one more thing. This is big, guys!
You can now subscribe to local events in your area of interest for a minimal monthly fee. Every cent will be used to fund local experts and our content moderators to find local events like exhibitions, shows, fairs, fireworks and others for you. There is no more need to chase friends, family or local information sources to figure out what local events are nearby for kids and families. Stay in the know and never have a boring family Saturday again!
Okay, I guess we’ll drop the mike now … Happy Yuggling!

3.2.0
We have further simplified the hunt for the coolest and freshest things to do for children. Parents, grandparents and caregivers - meet our built-in most popular ideas for family fun. Search and filtering now displays up to fifteen most popular categories based on the time of the year, which allows for even faster discovery of kids activities.
We have also incorporated additional intelligence into the display of the activity details, which shows nearby or similar kids activities to plan a couple of hours, a fun afternoon or a whole trip. The entire screen for displaying activity details is now much better structured, better looking and easier to navigate, which should make your research for the best kids activities even more effective.
Also, we are excited to announce, that we are finally independent from Parse.com. We have now our own backend, all hosted in Amazon Web Services. This was a big change, which kept us very busy over the last couple of months.
Enjoy! Happy Yuggling!
3.1.0
This time we focused on stabilizing Yuggler again.
We fixed a bunch of bugs and issues, that you have reported:
* Clearing the entire filter screen now works as it should ;-) * The text field for entering categories, types and keywords in the filter and search is now much better visible * The end date for a custom time period in the filter is now by default 6 months away from the current date * And many more!

In case you have not not seen this yet, just open the App, navigate to top charts in discover the best kids activities near you or future travel destination. It's that simple.
Enjoy! Happy Yuggling!
3.0.1
This is just a minor update to resolve some bugs that you found and we also optimized the performance of the App for some features. As usual: Happy Yuggling!
3.0.0
Over two years and thirteen version updates later, we just introduced our most unique and advanced feature for discovering kids activities: User-Constructed Top Charts for Kids Activities.
We developed an algorithm that enables the scoring of activities based on community actions. Based on these scores, parents can view top charts - such as top 10, top 20, top 50 or top 100 - of kids activities that meet their configurable criteria such as location, range, category, gender, age, weather, season, duration and cost.
On the go, in real-time, parents, grandparents or caregivers are able to construct their own best-of lists and discover activities for children in seconds. No more manual research or reliance on static web pages that feature the top-rated kids activities, which are typically outdated, editor-influenced and impossible to search for specific criteria.
We have also made access to our premium features for organizing family fun much easier and more affordable for parents who don’t have it in their budget to purchase the premium features for bookmarks, favorites and reminders. At your discretion you can activate bookmarks, favorites, and reminders either by contributing monetarily, inviting friends to join the Yuggler community, or spreading the word.
Besides all of that, we have also optimized the near me map view, simplified the navigation within the App, improved the search with the ability to sort search results by score or distance and so much more.
With this new refreshing update, Yuggler is by far the most technologically advanced, native App available for finding kids activities. We enable universal links, 3D Touch, multitasking on iPads with split views, location-based search, relevant push notifications, full integration with 3rd party Apps like Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest for nonstop collaboration and so much more.
All in all, our development team made so many outstanding changes that we felt the need to call this update Version 3. Happy Yuggling!
2.2.0
It's finally here: Time-based search and filtering. Users can now set criteria such as "Today", "Tomorrow", "This Weekend", "This Week", "Next Weekend", or any other period in time, like a special holiday. This allows parents, grandparents, and caregivers to narrow their search even further and save more time in their hunt for the best and freshest kids activities nearby.
Once you find awesome activities, we have made it even easier to talk with friends and family about them via our all new sharing functionality. You can now send an activity via the messaging App of your choice (including WhatsApp, Messages, Skype or Facebook Messenger) to friends, organizing your next get-together or chatting about the activity. You can also compile a list of notes in your Notes App for the next big weekend trip or vacation. And so much more!
These are amazing new features that provide users with endless new capabilities to collaborate on family fun. We almost called this Version 3 - It's that big! But we have something in the making that will completely revolutionize the way parents discover the best kids activities near their current location or near their future trip or vacation destination. So stay tuned!
2.1.1

Road Trip
We are going on a long road trip and I needed something to help me find playgrounds on the fly for my little boys to let off some energy. I tested it in our neighborhood and this app immediately found at least two dozen parks to choose from.
