Dumpster fire of an app

I matched and set a date, but it won’t display her picture, just a gray background because it won’t load the image. It did the same failure to display on my bio when I tried uploading an additional picture. It’s now less than 24 hours and the chat *should* have opened but instead it’s telling me it opens in -5987 seconds. It’s not even the correct number of seconds past the start, maybe 30 seconds before it was only -5700. I literally have zero clue who I’m supposed to meet and have no way to coordinate figuring that out because this app is so horribly buggy. Who knows if she even saw my pictures either. It used to work ok prior to the mandatory update. Whoever is in charge of this refresh should be fired, did they not do any beta testing before pushing this out? Edit: mysteriously the chat suddenly started working about an hour after I left the previous review… did not receive any responses and she did not show, no clue if she ever even saw my messages or attempted to write back. When I went to remove her connection, the app immediately logged me out and when I signed back, she was still there. Clicking report this account button immediately crashes the app. Everything about this app is just broken. Also, did you know they display your last name to matches? Huge privacy violation. Do not join this app!

Deleted my account

I live near Scottsdale Arizona. I took the time to create an account, and after that spent many hours swiping trying to get a connection. About a week or two goes by and I click on the app and see that I’m signed out. I try signing in with my Apple ID, and with my phone number. Both say user does not exist. Which basically means they deleted my account for some reason. Thank you for wasting my timewith no exclamation. Terrible app do not use unless you want your time wasted. You won’t find anyone on here.

EDIT: I received a response, and no, my account has not been restored. I just tried logging in and it still says my account doesn’t exist. Whatever you did did not fix my issue.

Hi Goo Goo Cluster, Thank you for your feedback, we have just updated our whole app and hope these issues have been resolved for you. Thank you!

Released my personal info and won’t let me log in

This app just continues to get worse. I was prompted to update the app yesterday morning. Since doing so, i am unable to log in. I have tried both my phone number and Apple sign in, but am told “user does not exist”. Frustrating, I thought, as i had two dates this week and now I have no way of contacting.

It gets worse…. Last night I got an Instagram message from someone I matched with. I did not share my Instagram account on the app, so naturally I was a bit concerned. When I asked him how he got my Instagram, I learned that after the update, the app decided to add everyone’s last name (at least mine and the person who messaged me) to their profile. He sent me a screen shot and, sure enough, there I am with my full legal name.

I emailed customer support and am still unable to log in to delete my account. Meanwhile, I am continuing to receive unwanted Instagram messages from creeps due to this unauthorized release of information. Unacceptable. PLEASE FIX THIS SO I CAN DELETE MY ACCOUNT.

Hi VanessaBKLYN, Can you send us an email at support@firstroundsonme.co so we can get this sorted for you? We apologize for the issues after our tech update. Thank you!

Not available in many areas

I was super excited to see how this app ends up working for me. however it’s only available in a few select cities. Nothing against the app just a forewarning that unless you live in the select cities you won’t even be able to create a profile. I will definitely be using this app when it’s available in my area.

Update still not available in my location but I keep getting notifications to set up an account. I think this would be a good app for me if it was available in Seattle.

Hi Lukas_Chlu, We will be expanding shortly, please stay tuned! Thank you,

Too buggy but great concept

UPDATE 7/7/24: Since the most recent app update, it’s prompting me to create a new account! So either my account was deleted or they’re having login issues 🤯🤯 so frustrating!!! Please fix this and let me login!

Great for actually going on dates. But very buggy and no responses to my support requests! Main problem: The app crashes when you try to view someone who asked you out on the same day that you already have a date. So it’s impossible to move it or even look at their profile. Very sad since you’re completely missing out on someone who invited you!! Sometimes after sending an invite or sending your interest, nothing happens so you have to close the app and reopen it to refresh. Chat messages don’t update in real time. For example I was waiting for someone to confirm and finally just sent a message myself and then their message popped up but they had sent it 20 minutes earlier 😒😒. It just hadn’t shown up. So the notifications overall are really wonky. You also can’t zoom in on profile photos which is a bummer. Overall lots of improvements to be made…. But it is much better than other apps to actually meet people.

Location required?

I would like to try this app, but it’s unfortunate that it won’t let you create an account without choosing one of the listed cities. I get they are in development, but it shouldn’t be limited to big cities. It should be just like any other dating app where you type in your location and go from there. None of the cities listed are anywhere near me and I don’t want to lie to people. I don’t mind to drive, but it’s frustrating that you can’t continue without a location.

Hi user6182691 , We will be expanding soon and eventually our goal is to be in every city. Thank you for your patience.

Pas encore 😞.

L’idée est bonne, ça oui!
Mais,… elle est juste disponible dans les villes majeures des États-Unis 🇺🇸!…
Au Canada 🇨🇦, ça attendra, i guess…😪🥱🤷🏻‍♂️

Great concept awful execution

Living in NYC I understand the overwhelming market this app has reached. Fantastic concept. But failed terribly in its execution. The app often freezes when you are attempting to cancel/ modify dates if there are too many requests on that day. The messages do not load in real time and since there is no other form of contact, you’re sitting there looking pretty stupid. I also reached out asking for assistance regarding the issues and no one has replied. It’s awful because I was truly looking forward fo trying this approach. I think there needs to me major adjustments to this app.

Great concept but has bugs

This is my favorite dating app so far. It works a lot better than others where you waste so much time chatting and may or may not meet up. This works if you want to meet people and is very efficient. It also forces you to go slowly, you can’t just match people infinitely and have a bunch of matches at once since it’s set up for dates and also sending interest has a time limit.

However there are several bugs!! For example if you have a confirmed date on a day and someone invites you on another date on the same day, it doesn’t let you click the new person to even view their profile or change the date. I submitted this in their contact/help but never received an answer. It also says I’ve run out of date requests event though I haven’t sent any…
