How to Search for a Drafted Review on the Yelp for iPhone App
Do you tend to write reviews on Yelp only by using your computer, but "oh darn" you couldn't finish in time, and had to complete it sometime else-even if it meant you were left to finish it with your iPhone, before writing that lovely review, you have to find those unpublished/drafted reviews first. If finding them seems tough, try these helpful steps and you'll be well on your way to getting there efficiently. <br/><td> <br/>This article would benefit from screenshots. <br/>You can help wikiHow by reading Take Screenshots for wikiHow for instructions. Notice added on {{{date}}}. </td> <br/>STEPS <br/><div class="step_num">1</div> TAP THE YELP APP BUTTON. <br/><div class="step_num">2</div> LOG IN TO THE APP (IF YOU HAVEN\'T LOGGED IN YET.) Use the same credentials as you do for the PC version. For those of you wishing to create an account, unfortunately, there is no account creation process yet from the app directly. <br/>If this is the first time you're accessing this app, the account will grab all of your edits, so you can view your previous reviews from the app, as well as synchronize the device with the bookmarks on the PC version.<br/>All subsequent synchronizations will happen every time you log in. However, these synchronizations tend to be a bit shorter, depending on how many bookmarks and reviews you have to your account.<br/>METHOD 1 OF 2: USING THE YELP APP <br/><div class="step_num">1</div> TAP THE "HOME" BUTTON ON THE BLACK TASKBAR AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN, IF YOU DON\'T SEE A SET OF NINE BOXES. <br/><div class="step_num">2</div> TAP THE "ABOUT ME" BUTTON. <br/><div class="step_num">3</div> SCROLL THE SCREEN UP JUST A LITTLE BIT, UNTIL THE LINE "DRAFTS" IS DISPLAYED. <br/><div class="step_num">4</div> TAP THE "DRAFTS" BUTTON. <br/>METHOD 2 OF 2: USING THE YELP DATABASE <br/><div class="step_num">1</div> SEARCH THE YELP DATABASE ON YOUR DEVICE THAT MOST CLOSELY MATCH THE LOCATION YOU HAD BEEN DRAFTING. You'll eventually arrive at a listing of the businesses that best matches. <br/><div class="step_num">2</div> OPEN THE BUSINESS THAT YOU BELIEVE YOU\'VE DRAFTED THE REVIEW FOR. <br/><div class="step_num">3</div> LOOK FOR A "FINISH REVIEW" BUTTON ABOVE THE MAP THAT DETAILS THE APPROXIMATE PLACE OF THE BUSINESS. If it doesn't have one, you'll have to return to the page listing all the other search matches. <br/><div class="step_num">4</div> TAP THE "FINISH REVIEW" BUTTON. <br/>TIPS <br/>You may also find the exact business item where you first drafted the review and tap the button in the top right corner that looks like an Arrow coming out of a rectangle and later tap "Draft a Review" to draft your review. To bring your drafted review up, if you want to use a slightly shorter version.<br/>Drafts for reviews created directly on the app, will show up on this screen. Several hours after its draft is created AND its been continued to be drafted (and not posted) on the PC version. This tip had never been a factor, up until the iPhone app's update a month ago, in August 2011.<br/>Bookmark all businesses you'd like to review, until each review/tip is posted.<br/>Use Find and Write a Good Review of a Business on Yelp and Find Former Reviews and Write Review Updates on Yelp for tips on what to add to a review that you are continuing to draft. <br/>WARNINGS <br/>Quick tips will never be saved as a draft. Therefore, you'll never find any quick tips in the drafted lists.<br/>
