Reviews for JapanCupid: Japanese Dating

So I actually respect the monetization policy compared to others, an upfront cost rather than showing ads. That being said it's far too expensive to even consider. Fake users are everywhere, and after a while of using dating apps it still amazes me that these people get away with it. Same exact profile pictures that are clearly fake. Even then, among the actual users couldn't help but notice a lack of Japanese. May as well call this Filipina cupid, but I'm sure that already exists. Anyway, avoid

I thought it would be like okupid, but for Japan... Nope. The app interface is terrible, like the first apps back in the day. What's worse, it's all paid, like Japanese dating apps (omiai, etc..). You can't send a single message without paying. It's like someone from outside Japan heard that in Japan all dating apps are 100% paid, and just implemented that on a 20 year old interface. Nobody will use it, neither Japanese nor foreigners.

I just downloaded the app but it doesn't let me to add my photos. and freezed.

just started using it, so far it is quite good.. not too much paywall compared to others.

This app is nothing but bots and scammers trying to get you to download different paid apps to chat on...

Full of bots and fake accounts. lots of profiles with one poor quality picture. not worth your time or money.

If you have a sumsung phone and use the reverse image search, over half the profiles are fake. You don't even need that. Most women are all super models. They claim to be Japanese but don't speak the launguage or even have Japanese names. I guess this is just to scam dudes that have no idea about Japan. I report every fake profile and they're all still up, lol.

App completely froze and endless fake notifications. I had to delete, report as Spam . another BOT fake website.

A very good dating app. Only thing is not everyone is Japanese. I want to meet only Japanese women's.

I've been using this app for almost a week and can guarantee with evidence that every female account on here within a very few exceptions are catfishers. they are using photos that are not theirs, it's easy to search the Internet for matching photos now with google search so I have verified every contact I lve had has been catfishers. this app is useless and a waste of time and money.

App goes into a freeze mode upon opening, asking for best photo, but page is split and inoperable. I have yet to get past initial opening.

the app is great, but the people there are not. Most of them want me to go to different websites or 3rd party dating apps to talk to them, and those cost more money than this app. can you please do something about that.

This app requires many upgrades and payment. I literally can't see almost everything like messages, favourite, profile and likes. All is mostly limited to use. it's not worth using it

Don't bother, unless you like bots and human scammers. Nothing else there... Oh, and without a subscription you won't be able to find out.

This app is literally useless without one of the expensive subscriptions. You can't even read or send messages without payment. I understand that they need money to finance their services but this is ridiculous. The only good thing, is the large amount of information you can put in your profile but that's it.

I truly cannot recommend this app. It is so aggressive in asking you to subscribe to their premium service (which is ridiculously expensive). I understand they need to finance the app but they limit the free version so much that there's no real point using it if you aren't willing to pay. They don't even let you see messages that have been sent to you without you paying. That is just insane greed. I'll give it a few more days but I can see myself deleting this soon as it just isn't worth it.

It really is ridiculous that you can't even message someone without paying. I also find it weird that they ask all this personal information, and yet suspend you for including for example your IG handle in order to have other ways to meet and communicate. It just comes down to money. I will be erasing this app. I was really hoping to meet new friends overseas but this app truly makes it impossible. Don't bother getting it.

Don't the buy subscription and read other reviews. They are not wrong and wish I saved my money. It's pointless and very few people even populate on the app. Japan has a huge amount of population and it's just not worth it when you get maybe 5-10 people only and countless inactive members. Subscription just cost too much for nothing. Save your money.

Very disappointing app. I've been on it awhile now. Overall the function is nice. But few people in my area; very difficult to match unless you have a paid subscription. Which is understandable, but it is pretty expensive. But my big issue is this: I actually matched with someone and we STILL can't message each other because neither one of us has a paid subscription. Even on Match if you were lucky enough to match with another person you can message each other free. that's it for me.

I paid and used this app for 3 months while in Japan. Honestly, maybe this app used to be popular. Now not so much. Most profiles are abandoned with pictures from 2 or 3 years ago on them. I liked and messaged most women around Osaka & Kyoto/Kansai area. Most of them didn't respond. They probably didn't want to speak in English or were not interested in taking to a "foreigner/traveller." Maybe if you're a Japanese Language Speaker with Japanese writing skills. Even so, wouldn't get my hopes up.
