Very few people on it, you don’t get to choose a smaller location, and the app is designed to mimic tinder. Doesn’t seem like a good app for finding friends.

Made me very uncomfortable tbh. Came to look for friends but it’s mostly just dudes looking to get their willies wet. On top of it all most of them will insult you if you don’t respond back within a few min. And then when you try to report, they only bring up a few messages […]

I’ll give more than a single star when I don’t get pop up ads every time I close a chat box. Also, I know it’s an app designed for making friends, not dates, but being minor inclusive is just unsafe and weird. . . because people treat it like a dating app and kids misbehave […]

From the outset it’s a filthy yank app (month day year? only a nation that simplified the English language because it was too hard to learn in its traditional format, write dates like a special needs student), then the fake profiles all with low resolution photos. Cmon scammers it’s 2025, there’s no excuse to be […]

the textpost section is full of sexual/nudity offers and sales, has minors asking for adults, and is just full of female bots or nude sellers getting upvoted for hunting at buying things. “friend” making app. people are on here for relationships or dating, and if the ones seeking a relationship it’s all single moms who […]

when getting those diamonds to all more swipes. had no issues before. now endless adds and swiping off the adds and closing the app and reopening it and still can’t get any. the app restricts how many you see when it says (refresh) it’s actually restricted you. and clicking local within 100 miles and getting […]

App is basically unusable. It’s baffling to me how slow everything is. Chatting is impossible because it takes ages for the words to show up. Nothing happens for almost a minute after pressing send. Swiping is laggier than my laptop from 1999. This is a disgrace, and I paid for this trash. Fix your app.

it’s good I have no problems with it except the only part I don’t like is that a lot of the people are either from a completely different country or are too far away, I can’t find anyone that’s actually in the same area as me so maybe add a feature where it allows the […]

giving this 2 stars bc I honestly do think this is the best social app I’ve used recently however not being able to swipe right on people without paying is just not it and just makes it almost useless on a base level. I get you want to get paid but at least give a […]

This app is SO LAGGY it’s borderline unusable! and I think I know why…STOP PUTTING SO MANY ADVERTS! I understand you need to earn a revenue but you are taking the Mickey at this point! random pop up video ads that load for 30-60 seconds, then press X then another page, and another, AND ANOTHER. […]

This app is awful. 95% of the people are either bots or scammers. They always ask the same exact question…”What are you looking for here.” Then they ask for your phone number to switch to Whatsapp. That’a where the scam starts. They either just lost their job or just need help until payday. The other […]

how is the app not a 1* across the board? location is set to my country, clearly the developers stating to do this cant get the message that the function is NOT working. set max distance to 35 miles. getting multiple profiles from other countries and any profiles in the US are NOT in the […]

it’s fine. it’s an okay app. but it’s straight up lying saying you can, “make friends nearby.” nearly everyone I can see is not even in the US. you can set the distance to how far away you can find people, but in my experience it never works. It’s not like I live in the […]

Denied 100% of my pictures even though they clearly follow the guidelines. Was able to get through with no picture uploaded to see some profiles. Swipped for about 15 minutes and only saw accounts that looked like bots, and there was not a single female. I checked my settings, and they were correct. Just another […]

The experience…. Has been better… It was pretty lively a year ago when I joined, but it’s been declining ever since. The chat sucks. It sucks hard. I don’t know what the development team works on, since they never add new features, but it’s broken af. Ads break the keyboard CONSTANTLY. It’s ok, tho – […]

Great app for meeting people! There are some scammers here and there but relatively it’s really low compared to other free sites. The development team responded to my issue quickly. Great set up using the best elements of a lot of other apps to meet people. Only complaint is that sometimes it’s rather slow when […]

App’s gone way downhill. Used to be the only one of its kind I found that you could actually match by a number of miles near you. That’s now been removed entirely. No more free gems from watching ads because that just doesn’t work. I tried it twice today, watched full ads and never received […]

This app is ok. You can meet some interesting people and have some decent conversations but it’s super buggy. For instance, I’m constantly having to close it and open it again because it won’t let me type normally. You can send photos as soon as a message opens but then after you type anything, the […]

it’s an ok app, there are lots of things that could be better. 1, there are pedophiles on this app, the range for me (17) is 12-22 which is very naïve to assume nothing bad will happen. 2, there is no difference between previous adds and new matches, you can’t tell unless you manually check […]

App logged me out, and now gives an error message every time I try to sign in. So it’s completely unusable. Was very buggy and slow before this anyway, takes forever to load every individual thing you do… it’s crashes a lot. Ads slow down the whole app, and if you don’t wanna turn notifications […]
