Waste of time and money!
Very expensive just to text. You are charged to text to customer service. Charged by word to text. Charged to send photos. If you strike up a conversation by text, they will never meet with you. They always have an excuse not to meet. Don’t do Yaku! A word to the wise, stay away from this app. They will bleed you dry.

Yaku is a scam
It’s full of Chinese women who make money off of you buying translation tokens even though they all can read and write English well. When you run out of translation tokens the women will stop talking to you or tell you to buy more translation tokens even though they all read and write English well but tell you they still need you to use translation. You can easily go through a couple hundred bucks a day doing this.

Scam
First time leaving a review on anything, but I felt it was important to spread the word. This app is a scam, and many of the women on it are fake. They will communicate with you with fake profiles (you can easily reverse google image search their profile pictures and find that they steal images from Asian models), and ask you to buy translation packages. I suspect they get a cut from the company. Apple should remove this app from their store.

Don’t do it
Worse app on my phone, spend a lot of money, does not work smoothly, seems like a scam
Weird payment structure
Cool app with a lot of great features but the “pay per character” translation services is super annoying and way too expensive. There should be an unlimited amount.
love scam don’t bother
you will get lots of people messaging you all at once that speak a different language that require translation credits you might as well go to a strip club at those rates downloaded without reading reviews. let me guess you were persuaded by someone to download the app right ?
Lousy/dismal
Messaging costs are aggregious and difficult to purchase, if user decides not to utilize Apple Pay. There are jo other options. Customer service is extremely slow to respond. Once utilizing the app, slow response rate, small icons and characters difficult to see. And the hideous influx of scammers makes this app the worst of the worst. Go elsewhere.

Dead app
This app had a service outage for like a whole month and just recently went back up. No warnings about it, no nothing. Anyone who subscribed to their terrible premium membership basically lost a whole month of it and they are not willing to pay you back for it. Don’t bother trying to download, it’s a cash scam taking advantage of men’s need for love. Nobody is online anymore, except for a few people who don’t even bother to interact or reply back.

Good but Below Average
This app I got from my friend when suggested to me. The app was rather not what I expected. I wanted to make friends and instead found out this app was for “adult/nsfw” content. The people I met on the app are really nice, but they require a lot of attention. I wouldn’t suggest it to anyone unless you are desperate. All round a decent app
