The filters don't work once you set them. A majority of profiles appear to be fake,even though you have to jump over hurdles to set your own. You can't swipe right on some profiles, not unless you pay. Even for a swipe? No you can't see who liked you either. Gotta pay for that too. Oh and every five seconds or so, an ad interrupts your experience so you either watch the trashy ad in full or close and restart the app. What's the point? The only thing this app does better than Grindr is not crash.

Everytime I log in I can't swipe through people because it's saying my location is turned off. It's not, I've checked my settings for the app and my location is on. I clear the cache and uninstall and reinstall to hopefully reset it and it still doesn't work. Also, about 90% of the profiles on the app are scammers, bots, etc.

I only lasted 3-4 hours on this site before I deleted it. The pop-up ads are very, very annoying! You can't click on something without being forced to watch the ad before you can leave it. But what made me most disappointed was the fact that the "likes" are blurred out until you pay fir a premium account. A practice that seems to be all the fashion now. I left two other sites I had for years for the same reason. Not enough money to pay for so many premium accounts!

Hi Carlos, thanks for contacting us. "Who likes me" is indeed a Premium feature, but chatting and matching is entirely free—you just need to mutually like each other to be able to chat 💞. Interested in trying our Premium features for free? Hit our admin up! ✨
