1. Not many users - seems to cycle through the same people over and over again. When you do connect with someone, it’s often an older man in India who just glares at you from a tiled room or a faceless dude masturbating in silence. Not sure what I expected from an app offering gay video chats with strangers but def not a place for genuine connections. this app would be more aptly marketed as interactive armature porn.
2. Deleting your account just logs you out- your account is still stored and accessible. You can log back in as if nothing happened. I emailed support about the issue above and have been ignored so far.
3. Banana promises they don’t store your videos but, as far as I can tell, there anything to prevent or warn when the other user is screenshotting or screen recording. Netflix has blocked this capability and Snapchat at least tells you when it happens- does Banana do the same? If not, this is a massive security risk for those who want to be more discreet about online dating.
4. The app often freezes on the swipe screen.
5. Profile pictures are absolutely not moderated.
Cool concept but it’s half-baked, underpopulated, and full of security holes. If the support team will respond to my email and delete my account, I’ll consider a better review.
