Reviews for Smitten - a fun dating app

Pretty cool app but it's incredibly slow and doesn't feel smooth at all. I would also like it if i could turn off the "your sparks is full" notification and keep message notifications on. It's all just "miscellaneous" so i either turn all of the notifs off or none

Novel user interface albeit somewhat limiting. Most (female) members appear to be under 25 and supposedly Scandinavian. Sadly, my own personal experience has proven that 100% of those initiating contact are either selling online content, seeking financial reward or looking for Sugar Daddies. Your mileage may vary... UPDATE: The latest update has enlarged profile photos but slowed down the app significantly.

Now, I have seen some dating apps and the originality this is awesome, it has awesome ideas, and guessing some persons traits and if you get 10 correct they can see your account on a screen is genius and pretty funny, it's more fun than tinder but, it just doesnt work correctly, it takes very long to match with anyone, it lags and glitches out, and just freezes sometimes, my images wont load, most of peoples images wont load all in all, but if you make this work, it could be better than tinder

Good premise and concept but for some reason, all of the text in the answers to prompts (and sometimes even the UI) are abruptly cut off, sometimes down to just one letter. Which more or less defeats the purpose of getting to know someone on a dating app.

Smitten is OK. There's no text box for a bio; instead it gameifies how you find out about your partner. However, I found the location requirement while using the app bothersome, and there doesn't seem to be many people using the app.

It has some bugs, as do all apps. Overall though, I love the idea and I love the ease of use for the interface. The only reason it isn't 5 stars is there are extremely low number of people in the USA. If this app were to be widely used and accepted, I think it would be a great dating app for everyone! It looks childish at first, but it really is a fun twist on the swipe dating problem.

My review keeps getting deleted. Anyway, advice for the devs, unlock the app. User base is too small and that's detrimental to you. You need to grow your user base fast and also rely on positive experiences to drive more people to it. Otherwise you risk of being one of those dating apps where most users are inactive

Could be a interesting experience however it fell short on the fact that it shows you that you got likes that do not exist so effectively faking you out to keep you there. Another note to add they also randomly delete peoples accounts. It also needs some sort of verification system to try and remove all the fake accounts.

Very bad. On for 10 days never saw 1 other person. Even changing all filters. Fix your app. This is why I don't subscribe to dating apps right away. Like anything you got to get a feel for things before you go for the best. I don't know what else to say. What can I say. 10 days never saw 1 other face

I tried it again, still incredibly slow. Now the app wants to update so I press update, the store starts but there is no update option, only open or uninstall. If I press open I go back to the app and it still says Update so I press Update and the circle continues. This app has all the potential to be the nr.1 dating app cause it is a nice concept. If only your technical side was not run on Windows 95 Very slow and now nothing works, stuck on how I like Smitten, can't even like or dislike it

I kept getting matched with people in Scandinavia (I couldn't tell if it was Norway or Sweden). When I changed the settings there was no one available. Probably not the app's fault but still makes it hard to give it a good review. The app itself is a little glitchy. It has delays on button pressing and saving info.

Practicle things: good concept but horrible interface. User experience: If you're not an Icelandic teenager, it makes no sense to use this app as there aren't many people outside Iceland and above 22-23 yo. It seems to be using an algorithm that puts you into "success" classes pretty fast! When I joined, it showed me lots of girls but within 2 days I got stuck with the same 10-15 girls and all of them are fat (not to be rude, just to say that there is some strong classification going on).

Fun until it deleted my account. I set everything up a few days ago, and everything was working just fine. I open the app today, and it wants me to sign up again, no option to sign back in. I tried starting over, but the verification code they sent me wouldn't work when I put it in. Waste of time.

The app is broken, and simply doesn't open at all.

Seems like a decent app, although it feels like it needs fleshing out a lot. It's very lacking in features and options. Also for those who are alternative, or just non-mainstream, having a limited number of people to trash is very hindering. Most people aren't going to be compatible so you need to be able to select no on a lot of people. Also just noticed that the age range slider is broken for me and doesn't work. Now I can't even sign in, I just get "invalid code" so I lowered my review to 1.

New updated note: So I tried something and I deactivated precise location and for a second I got some new people but after like an hour ONLY THE SAME PEOPLE ARRIVED, honestly at this point smitten just is becoming more of a global dating app than Icelandic specific dating app, like smitten i think we need to not have global becuase most users do not want to be in a toxic online relationship, i think we need need to have this app icelandic app only

cant get out of the setup screen, app wont advance past the profile questions. hella broken, almost certainly a scam app

unable to proceed further with the sign up after filling out 3 profile questions even after filling out all 15 of them 🤷 uninstalled.

The idea of the app is good but I deleted my account, since there was almost no one to swipe on, maybe 3-4 persons a day at max and customer service didnt care enough to reply to my concerns inside the app when I asked if I have to pay to get more people to swipe on.

I'm trying to sign up, but I'm stuck at "answer 3 profile questions" step, no bottom for going forward or skipping 🤷🏻‍♂️ the whole page is the questions only, nothing happens if you answer 3 or all of them
