VyrazímeFacebook event alternative for parties and get-togethers with friends
A Facebook event is a familiar way to get people together for a party or a get-together. You create it, invite your friends and everyone answers whether they are coming. A private event is visible only to the people invited.
Vyrazíme is an app for events with friends. One link invites even those who aren't on Facebook, you choose the date by voting and the app itself reminds anyone who hasn't answered yet. The same event then holds the tasks, the costs and the photos too. It is free.

Where they differ
Who gets in. On Facebook you mostly invite the friends you have there. Someone without an account can be sent an invitation by email or text message. The Facebook Help Centre notes that this option isn't available for all events. A guest without an account answers from the invitation whether they are coming. They see who else is coming, the discussion and the photos with a Facebook account. In Vyrazíme you send one link, to a WhatsApp group for example. Your friend fills in their name and email in the browser and sees the whole event.
The date. A Facebook event is created by the host and the guests answer whether they are coming. In Vyrazíme you can set the date straight away too, or turn on voting. You suggest a few dates, your friends tap I can or I can't on each one and you confirm the one that works for most of them.
Who is coming. On a private event you answer that you are going, maybe going or can't go, and the host sees the guests by their answers. In Vyrazíme the app asks Are you coming? once the date is confirmed and everyone taps I'm in or I'm out. The participant list shows how each person answered.
Reminders. Facebook sends updates about the event to those who answered that they are coming. Vyrazíme reminds those who haven't answered yet to vote and to confirm they are coming, and lets you know once everyone has voted. A week and a day before the event it sends everyone a countdown.
What surrounds it. A Facebook event has a discussion for posts, photos and videos, and the host of a private event can message the guests. In Vyrazíme an event has a chat and with it polls, tasks with a name on each and a rota for who takes care of what. After the event the photos come together in the album and the costs show who sends how much to whom.
