Description
Been testing Yubo for about a month now, and it’s basically Tinder but for making friends instead of dating. You swipe through profiles of people around your age, and if you both swipe right, you can start chatting. Pretty straightforward stuff, though it took me a bit to get used to the whole vibe of it being focused on friendship rather than dating.
The main thing you’ll be doing is checking out people’s profiles and joining live streams. There’s this cool feature where you can hop into group video chats – kinda like a virtual hangout spot. You can also add tags to your profile to find people who’re into the same stuff as you, whether that’s gaming, music, or whatever. And they’ve got these themed rooms where people just chill and talk about specific topics.
Look, if you’re someone who’s looking to expand their social circle or maybe chat with people from other countries, this might be worth checking out. But real talk – you’ve gotta be careful with any social app these days. It’s mostly aimed at teens and young adults, and while they’ve got some decent safety features, you still need to use common sense. Not gonna lie, it can be hit or miss finding genuine connections, but that’s pretty much how these social apps go.
Editor Opinion
So here's my honest take after using Yubo for a while: it's actually better than I expected for a social networking app. I've tried a bunch of these friend-making apps, and most of them end up being pretty sketchy. Yubo at least tries to keep things legitimate with ID verification and decent moderation. The live streams are probably the best part - they feel more natural than just messaging strangers.
But here's the thing - the app can sometimes feel a bit chaotic, especially in the group chats. And while they're trying to keep it safe, there's still that underlying worry about who you're really talking to. I'd say it's one of the better social apps out there, but you definitely need to stay aware and careful while using it.
Pros & Cons
Pros

Cons
- Can be overwhelming with all the notifications and activity
- Some people still try to use it as a dating app
- Takes time to find genuine connections
- Lots of younger users which might not be great for older folks

I think the potential is there, but I feel like it isn't really being used for its intended purpose. The app itself works smoothly enough, but in the few days...
It's a good app. I hate how you can't see everyone who added you, and I think that the payed part shouldn't limit that, but instead maybe limit other things...
!!DON'T IGNORE THIS ISSUE PLEASE!! I don't like how we have to pay to see who swiped right on us. That's just like paying someone to be friends with them...
