So here's my honest take on SCRUFF. I've tested a bunch of gay dating apps and this one's one of the better ones in my experience. The community seems pretty friendly and diverse, and the features are solid without being too complicated. And the matching and search tools work well to help you find compatible people. But it does get a little repetitive after a while, and the free version can feel a bit limited if you can't pay. Overall though, I'd say it's a pretty good option if you're in the market for a gay dating app.

Description

Been using SCRUFF for a couple months now. It’s basically a gay dating app where you can connect with other LGBTQ+ folks nearby. Pretty solid app if you’re into that kind of thing.

Here’s what you do: you can browse profiles, send messages, and even video chat with people. There’s also a ‘match’ feature that suggests people you might like. And you can search and filter to find exactly the type of guy you’re looking for. Took me a while to figure all that out but it’s pretty useful.

Look, if you’re into dating apps, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – there’s some annoying ads if you don’t pay – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out.

Good app, needs a few tweaks, e.g. should log you off when exiting app, instead of leaving your status as "online" so that people think you're ignoring them when you...

The app is okay. It works well enough, but the monthly service charge for the full version is not worth the money. If the service fee was $5.99 a month...

I had the app for about six years. Distance is less accurate than the one that rhymes with winder but is a tad more reliable than the one that rhymes...
