  • Great way to connect!

    I want to meet people who like to do the same things I like to do without the illusion of a dating app.
  • Great concept!

    I think this app has a lot of potential. I have already used it to find multiple partners for climbing/mountain biking. I just think it needs more people to join to be really effective!
  • Great idea

    This app is a great idea and the execution is pretty good but there’s a few bugs that make it very difficult to use sometimes. The worst one is when the app does allow you to open your messages or friend requests. This means that I basically have to exchange some other kind of contact info immediately when the app does decide to let me use the messenger so we can converse and plan an outing. Would rate 5 stars if it wasn’t for the bugs. UPDATE: The issue with the messages has been fixed with 2.1.4 but this same issue still persists when trying to accept friend requests.

  • No way to filter out search-ability by gender

    I am a married woman who wants to meet female outdoor partners. I can search by specific gender but it doesn’t stop males from messaging and sending me friend requests. I don’t want to be searchable by everyone.

    Also just updated the app and now it just crashes and doesn’t launch.
  • Great app for meeting adventure buddies

    I find this app useful for finding new partners for various activities like climbing and skiing. I’m glad this app exists, especially because I frequently move to new areas with outdoorsy people.
  • Great way to meet locals

    I flew to SLC by myself to ski Alta, but thanks to that app found local skiers who we willing to show me around the mountain. The skiing ended up being totally awesome :)
  • Great idea. Spammy, rude developers.

    This could be a great idea if the developers weren’t so incredibly rude and disrespectful of their users and the communities they’re trying to engage. It starts with their endless steamroller spamming of Facebook groups and other social media comment threads. And then when you try to check out the app out of curiosity, it takes your email and phone number before stalling indefinitely. I’m not saying they’re data harvesting, but they’re definitely not showing much concern about what happens to the “community” once they have your info in hand. Their tone-deaf and spammy actions make it abundantly clear that they have no interest in creating community anywhere unless it means they get a cut of the profit. There are better ways to meet friends than by rewarding this kind of behavior.

  • Good with a few bumps

    The interface for sharing outdoor skills & pics is good. The messaging function is a bit glitchy at times.
  • Desperately needs to invite based on Pastime.

    When you participate in multiple pastimes and have friends from all those different pastimes it is hard when I cannot sort for that.
    Instead I have to try and recall what sport each friend does and invite to my events accordingly.

    Please, please, please make that auto-sorted for the pastime I'm creating the event for, with the option to show all and invite others.

    It's the biggest flaw in the system for me.

  • Hiking , mountain biking, outdoor recreation, and more.

    This app is awesome. I have met a lot of people. Many I have met I have had amazing times hiking and mountain biking. However, just be careful because I have also ran into fake accounts trying to get me to share my bank accounts and a lot of personal information. Including an account trying to get me to share my SSN. 🤦‍♂️
