Fake Accounts

I was really hoping to have luck with this app. I can’t believe this app is advertised to meet and chat with local people when you have to pay for coins in order to send one message. I’ve had nothing but bad experiences and I hope you developers see this review and do something about it. What really gave it away was the women that messaged me from Tulsa, US. Every single one of them, I mean come on.. it was a total waste of the one month subscription to trust an app like this.. I’m not asking for anything back but this is truly ridiculous and should not be allowed to mess with people like this. I mean from the subscription, to paying for coins, $8?, to getting automated messages and asking you to please stay on the app and bribed me to buy more coins so they can talk to me… I can’t believe you guys would design an app and allow people to get bribed for money and their trust they put in the app to help them find someone important in their life… I really hate it came down to this but I had to be honest about it and tell my experience…. Please respect my honesty and do something about this… reach out to me if need be.

Fraudulent.

This app is absolute garbage. Within 10 minutes of creating a profile you’ll have 10-20 chats going with people who look like models…please don’t be fooled, they’re not real. If you’ve EVER used a legit dating app (hinge, bumble, tinder) then you’ll know it just doesn’t work like that. If you do choose to engage with these fake people you’ll soon find out that every single one of them has an excuse for why they want to keep chatting on the app, where you’re charged per message (so ridiculous), and why they can’t or won’t meet up irl…just endless chatting costing you endless amounts of money. The creators/developers of this app should be locked up and completely removed from society, and the fact that Apple allows this garbage on the App Store is actually unbelievable. Also, clearly all these 5star reviews are fake too.

Shady App for sure

This app is a joke. There’s not a single profile with real photos of girls out with their friends or anything. They’re all professional photos that are clearly professionally done at a photo shoot. I’ve contacted support and gotten no response at all even though my last review they responded taking me to contact sport like they really wanted to help. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. Girls are saying they’re American from same city as i am yet they can’t tell me what part and they’re grammar screams foreigner. But that o have any problem with anyone outside of America, but i have a huge problem with being lied to by people I’m trying to connect with on a personal level. It’s not fair that this app gets too false advertise and can continue to scam people every day and then blame it on the account holders whom they’ve clearly hired to pose as every day users in order to get people to spend money and chat. IT’S WRONG’

Horrible, Money Vacuum

Let me just tell you how freaking unbelievably greedy this app is. First off, they require you to purchase a subscription to be able to message other users and to see who liked you. That’s fine, if makes it sense since other apps do that as well. So I bought the subscription and immediately after making my profile I had about 5 likes within the first 5-10 minutes (a bit sus). The profiles that liked me sent me the most generic sounding messages, almost as if a computer was writing them. They also had the most commercial looking pictures, as if they weren’t real people but bots. Here’s where it gets even more insane: you have to pay $$$ to literally send a single message at a time with their in-app “coins”. Yes, it costs a whole 5 coins to send a single message! 40 coins cost $12! Imagine how much money you need just to have a simple conversation with someone, I mean it’s insane. This whole app is trash, I deleted my profile and got my refund. There’s other dating apps that are better out there that won’t steal all your money.

Good app

I like this app. The women are very responsive! I don’t like how the premium doesn’t come with free messaging and the fact that the feature to see if the other person has read your messages doesn’t work. I’ve been talk to this women for the past 2 days and it’s already cost me over $200 which is ridiculous. If I didn’t like the person I was talking as much as I do then I would have deleted my account because of how much it cost. The message cost way to much! Please fix it and add free messaging to the premium and just raise the cost of the premium not too much though. You have to make it worth it. But don’t make it to expensive or people will be hesitant to to even be on here!

I will not stop until I take you down.

Worst dating app in the world is not even real. First of all all the women are hot which is the first red flag. Second they all seem to respond to you right away second red flag. Third red flag they all seem to ask the same questions and never want to move off the app like they’re trying to keep you on there. They charge you a monthly fee to sign up like most other apps but then you pay $30 to send 150 messages. In other words you wanna say everything is short as possible and you don’t get to know people but they just keep asking questions to keep you on and making more money I spent or $100 in two days. That they upgraded me to platinum saying everything was free to chat with “ non-popular” members. How they’ve gotten away with this I have no idea.

FAKE AI CONVERSATIONS

As soon as I signed up for this app I noticed something was off right away. I live in a very small town and normally when I sign up for random social and dating apps in the App Store I don’t get matches and stuff right away because I live in the middle of nowhere. And when I look around there’s not many people to talk to where I live. But I got two or three hits right away so I engaged with these “gentlemen” and I was alarmed by the speed in which all of these guys were replying all at once. So I immediately stopped replying because I thought this app was a joke. The conversation with one of them flowed weird as if I confused the AI Bot. So it’s currently 5:30am upon writing this review and I wanted to confirm my suspicions of the guys and conversations being fake so I messaged a few of them and yet again I got immediate replies. I’m cute in all but I don’t expect any stranger to stop what they’re doing or wake up out their sleep to reply to me like that in record speed. Let alone 2 or 3 different guys. This app is foolish to think anyone wouldn’t notice they’re not talking to a real person. That said, I will be uninstalling it right now.

$1.5 per message

Very sad. Lacks upfront & easy full disclosure. After a couple message, membership is required. The three months looks like a fair trail. However after a few more instantaneous message by beautiful ladies, the developers require 1.50 (basic package) per message. Read some of the developers replies. 😞🤦🏼. No clue why Apple would even allow such an app. This is for lonely guys who want to only chat with beautiful photos…. NOT an in person Normal date.

To dev. res.: IF you were honest… Let’s see, your opening app advertisement. “No other dating app is that simple, genuine & straight forward.” And subscriptions listed. However, Once a person pays for your subscription and/or UNDISCLOSED coin requirement and their cost.. TO WHICH WHEN MENTIONED PUBLICLY… you claim is that it’s required cost to provide service… 🤥🤢🤮

Several other legitimate dating apps work on subscriptions alone, as yours advertised. Yours is not for the average seeker. & again shame on APPLE for allowing this app on their platform.

Definitely a SCAM and Fraud

There is not any definition of SLA for monthly payment! Looks like its for just using the system! Also looks like all the ladies hired by app for chat with men. They are using the same template of questions which I asked by 10 different lady! For every single message uDate charge u! I feel a group of people hired by uDate and push men to buy more gold coin and pay for chat! After spend 400$ for buying coin and several hours chat neither of ladies accepted for joining me in a short chat in Google Hangout! I was wondering are they really a woman?! For some reasons I felt even several of them are not familiar with simple concepts of living in the U.S! means even they maybe live outside of the border and chat with men is their Job!!
I am working in IT and Cyber Security is part of my job! I would say uDate is one of the biggest fraud in Cyber! Just never get this app and don’t spend one minute of your valuable time on it!
SCAMMERS!

Huge rip off

I would give zero stars if I could.
This app should be ashamed of itself. It’s just preying on people’s wallets. The amount of fake profiles on this is ridiculous. Just messaging with them you can tell they’re not the person in the picture. They constantly try to contact you and entice you to spend money on coins. They don’t even remember any of the conversations you’ve had. I told one about me only having two daughters and she asked about them. Then a couple of days later she asked me what I did that day and I told her that I spent the day with my sons. She asked me “what did we do?” If that’s not a red flag on these profiles I don’t know what is. It’s sad that people would prey on the feelings of other people trying to find happiness with someone out there. Another thing is how is every profile a popular member? This is another way to get you to spend money on coins to be able to chat with someone. Don’t waste your money on this app. No matter what dating app there can’t be that many popular members.
