STEPS
1
POWER ON AND UNLOCK YOUR IPHONE. Type in your 4-digit pin (if you have one set up).
2
DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL THE YELP FOR IPHONE APP FROM THE APPLE APPSTORE (IF YOU HAVEN\'T DONE SO ALREADY).
3
LOGIN TO THE YELP FOR IPHONE APP, WITH YOUR YELP CREDENTIALS, IF YOU HAVEN\'T DONE SO ALREADY.
4
SEARCH FOR THE BUSINESS\' REVIEW YOU\'D LIKE TO COMPLIMENT THE USER ON, FROM THE SEARCH BAR AT THE TOP OF THE APP.
5
TAP THE BUSINESS YOU\'D LIKE TO VIEW FOR THE REVIEW.
6
SCROLL DOWN UNTIL YOU GET TO THE SECTION ENTITLED "REVIEWS".
7
TAP A REVIEW, OR, IF THERE ARE MORE REVIEWS THAN JUST THE TOP 4, CLICK THE BUTTON SLIGHTLY BELOW THESE TOP 4 LABELED "(X) MORE REVIEWS" (WHERE X DESIGNATES HOW MANY ADDITIONAL REVIEWS ARE PRESENT).
8
READ THE REVIEW FROM THE VERY TOP TO THE LAST WORD.
9
TAP THE COMPLIMENT BUTTON FROM BELOW THE VOTING BUTTONS
10
FLICK THROUGH THE LIST THAT IS DISPLAYED, UNTIL YOU FIND THE RIGHT OPTION THAT BEST DESCRIBES YOUR COMPLIMENT.
Your choices are: Thank You, You're Cool, Hot Stuff, You're Funny, Write More, Good Writer and Just a Note).
The defaults for the compliment's messages are as follows:
_Thank You_ will default to: "Gracias. Merci. Arigato. Danke... There aren't enough languages in the world to express my gratitude."
_You're Cool_ will default to "You're so cool you make me want to stop, collaborate and listen."
_Hot Stuff_ will default to "You're hotter than a campfire, and I want me s'more."
_You're Funny_ will default to "I think I LOL'd my pants!" (verbatim)
_Write More_ will default to: "In the words of Oliver Twist...Please sir, I want some more."
_Good Writer_ will default to: "You've got the write stuff, baby!"
The _Just a Note_ compliment will not default to any special message. You can create one of your own, after you select this item.
11
TAP INTO THE "SEND LINK AND TYPE A MESSAGE TO PERSONALIZE THE COMPLIMENT" OPTION, OR LEAVE THE DEFAULT NOTE AS-IS.
12
TAP THE "SEND" BUTTON WHEN COMPLETE, FROM EITHER BELOW THE MESSAGE BOX, OR FROM THE TOP RIGHT CORNER OF YOUR SCREEN.
TIPS
First time writers of written words in the business community section, please be sure to read the Talk page guidelines before submitting any talk page messages to the site.
You can find the exact types of compliments you've received on your full-Yelp profile page. The Yelp homepage, once you've signed in, will display just the total number of compliments you've received, and it will also tell you when you receive a new compliment.
Each compliment has it's own compliment icon. Try to learn them all, when you begin to send compliments to authors.
WARNINGS
You cannot send a compliment to yourself on your own reviews. That is totally impractical to do, and is not something they developed into the system, so you'll know you've stumbled upon one of your own reviews, when you read the business page and see one without the compliment button.
At the present time, you can only compliment a user on any of their uploaded pic and lists on Yelp website. There is no functionality on the iPhone app yet.
THINGS YOU\'LL NEED
