Rubbish
Response from developer
We hear you about the activity in your area. The good news is, our community is exploding right now – thousands of new faces every day. We're expanding as fast as we can, and it's only a matter of time before we're RAWcking your neighborhood. Pop back in every now and then (or even better, every day!) to see how things are growing. You'll be hanging out with new crushes in no time. We're building something really special here, and we're so glad you're part of it.
Good idea
Other than that, the premise is great, raw photos, no editing, just daily photos.

Thank you for you review. Let us explain how the distance feature works: we start by showing you all the folks in your close area. When the number of nearby people starts to decrease, we expand the search radius just a bit. But here’s the cool part: if new people sign up and they're close to you, we bring the radius back in again. Also, we prioritize showing people who have liked you first - meaning, if someone far away likes you, you'll see them before someone nearby who hasn't liked you yet. This way, you'll never be short of new faces, so loneliness is off the table.
Good concept, needs work especially with distance
I’m near a metro area (600k+ people) and I saw one person in that city or surrounding area. I immediately started getting people from the other side of the country in my queue and it constantly jumped around the entire country with no pattern at all. I swiped through about 50 profiles and it never even got close to my area again.
I could understand if there just weren’t a lot of users within a certain radius of me but I feel like I’ll never know because I couldn’t set that parameter.

Thank you for your honest feedback. You've brought up some great points, and we want to encourage you not to give up just yet. Our community is growing fast, with thousands of new users joining every day. They might not have reached your area yet, but just give it a little time. We're quickly growing bigger and better, so why not check back now and then (or even every day)? You're sure to see the active community we're creating together. Hang in there — things are about to get a lot more exciting around here.
Good potential
Perhaps you could add a function where the user could select a radius around them that they can match people in, while still not being allowed to manually set their location in order to keep with the app’s original purpose? As things are, the user experience would be better off if the app just stopped showing you people that are a certain distance away, rather than show you people that you’d just waste your time trying to interact with, since seeing them in person isn’t an option.
Response from developer
Absolutely appreciate your honest feedback. You've raised some fantastic points, and we want to reassure you, don't lose heart just yet. Our community is expanding by the minute, with thousands of new users hopping on board daily. Maybe they haven’t quite made it to your neighborhood, but give it a little time. We're on a fast track to bigger and bolder, so why not check in occasionally (or hey, even daily)? You’re bound to see the buzzing community we’re building together. Keep the faith — it's about to get a whole lot RAWer around here.
Huge potential
Response from developer
Hi, Thank you so much. We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying our concept. We're pouring our hearts into making the app bot-free and incredibly user-friendly for RAWsome users like you. And yes, you've got it right — we're growing every day, but it's possible that your neighborhood is just a bit behind. Don't worry — it's only a matter of time. Keep checking in, because your RAW crush could be just around the corner. We've got a good feeling about this.
RAW
Response from developer
Yeah, unfortunately, this +17 marking is an App Store thing, and we can't really do anything about it. RAW is only for adults (18 and over), so you'll have to wait a little bit before you can join the fun. But don't worry, it'll be worth the wait. Mark it on your calendar — come back and see us in a year.
Not bad at all
Response from developer
Yeah, with RAW you can swipe as much as you like, we've definitely got enough profiles to go around for everyone! Here's a quick rundown on how our distance feature adds spice to your swiping: Initially, we serve you a platter of people right in your neighborhood. As these options start to thin out, we expand your swiping sphere a bit. But here's the cool part – if new folks sign up near you, we shrink that circle right back down. It's ensures you've always got fresh faces popping up. So, wave goodbye to loneliness because there's always someone new around the corner on RAW. And about those extra photos beyond the daily ones – they're like hidden treasures waiting for you post-match. It's our way of recreating the thrill of real-life encounters. First, you get that initial snapshot, and as you connect and dive deeper, the full picture of who they are slowly unfolds. How about we amp up your RAW experience with a Premium account, on the house? Just email us at hello@raw.app with your registered phone number, and consider it done. A Premium upgrade might just be the cherry on top of your RAW adventure. Thanks a ton for your fantastic review! We treasure feedback like yours; it fuels our grow to become the most RAW-tastic version of ourselves. Keep the insights coming!
I have a RAW idea
Response from developer
RAW as ""Real Adventurous Wildlife"" — that's an acronym we hadn't heard before, but to be perfectly honest, it sounds great. We're so glad you're loving our app! And yes, our Premium service is indeed an invite-only system — we're always on the lookout for more awesome people like you to join. BUT, don't worry, we'll make an exception for you because you're just that cool. Just shoot us your registered phone number at hello@raw.app, and we'll get your Premium access up and running in no time. Think of it as a little token of good luck, to help you find your crush faster, fall in love, and all that good stuff. Thanks again for your fantastic review! Keep embracing the RAW spirit.
