Yapta used to be good price tracking tool several years ago. I had success getting automatic price drop alerts by email for flights I was tracking and managed to snag flights to Europe at half price when I got my alert.
However now I have entered several flights to track in My Trips section of the website and the price check feature has been stuck trying to display the price for several weeks.
Then the server to My Trips was down for another week.
When server and current price display finally came up the current price for each of the 3 trips I was tracking never changed until I manuall clicked check price.
So there is no automatic checking of prices by Yapta therefore no alert can be sent.
I complained about this politely and asked for assistance or clarification through the email contact information on Yapta website.
I asked 4 times in 4 e mails over a 4 day period.
No response.
I see the company writes responses to negative reviews.
Maybe I can get response this way.
I really want Yapta to work.
But if I have to manually check the flight prices 3 4 times a day.
What good is it.
Everyone says they send automatic price drop alerts. Not true I have seen the price drop, go back up, and drop again 2,3 times while checking on Kayak and the price on Yapta stays at say "last price check" 3 days ago.

I really loved Yapta. They would track flights for you and let you know when the price went down...
