App is terrible
You set the age of people you wish to see and then you still get sent profiles of any age that live no where near you.
Just stick to the hinge/bumble save yourself the time… it may get better with time/updates just atm no thanks.

Hey, just a quick heads up! We love it when you snap a daily selfie. It's a fun way to show you're online and totally up for a chat. Don't stress about striking the perfect pose – just be yourself and snap away. Remember, we're not about that 'gotta look perfect' vibe you see on other dating apps. You're amazing just the way you are, so feel free to get creative with your selfies! Those double camera photos? They're like a peek into someone's world, shining a light on what makes them unique. Use these pics to kick off some cool conversations – maybe chat about the TV show they're watching or that cute pet you spotted in their photo. We hope these little glimpses add a personal touch and sprinkle some everyday magic into your dating game. Regarding the age issue you mentioned, could you drop us an email at hello@raw.app with the following details - your phone model, software version, and the number you signed up with? We'll get right on fixing this pesky bug, and to make things right, we'd like to offer you a free Premium account as our way of changing your mind about us :)
Interesting concept, needs improvement
However, the app says I have several people who have ‘liked’ me, but even after extending my filter from age 18 to 81 and swiping through the entire available list I’ve not matched with them.
Needs more transparency and flexibility on the search’s geographical range, otherwise I can only assume those mysterious ‘likes’ are a ploy to push the premium paid subscription.

Hi there! You can trust that every like you're seeing is 100% the real deal – no tricks or gimmicks here. And it's not a ""ploy"" to push anything — our Premium account is completely free! You won't need to reach for your wallet at all. Your only 'task'? Just bring three of your friends into our RAWsome app community. But we can do one better – you can have the Premium account without even that. Just send your registered phone number to hello@raw.app, and voilà, it's yours for free. Once you're on Premium, you'll get to see everyone who liked you, proving that everything is indeed very real. How's that for transparency? :)
Amazing Idea! Much Potential
Response from developer
Thanks, we now pronounce you a RAW hero! Be brave on your dating journey, because you are picture perfect, you don't need no filter ❤️
Can’t see who liked you
You can only email them in there language if you don’t there rejected your email automatically.

Hi! There's definitely some kind of misunderstanding here — we always reply to everything and we're giving out Premium accounts like hotcakes, no greed at all. Please, write to us at hello@raw.app, and we'll sort it out real quick.
Decent idea
Very few users and a lot of bot profiles
I get far more matches on bumble - RAW has so few users I’m seeing the same people everyday, and it suffers the same as Yubo with crypto and forex scammers trying to sign you up to their schemes.

Hey! So, we've got a bunch of moderation stages to keep our app super clean. Most of the time, we don't have any troublemakers, but occasionally, a sneaky one might get through. Here's where you come in: spot someone shady? Just smash that ""report"" button. We'll swoop in and poof! They're gone, just like that. Thanks for being our eyes and ears out there! And to turn your experience around, how about we toss a free Premium account your way? Just shoot your signup phone number over to hello@raw.app, and we'll set up your Premium access faster than you can blink.
I like it but…

Hi there! A big thank you for such an awesome, detailed review! We're over the moon to hear you're digging the concept – seriously, it makes our hearts skip a beat. Now, about your qualms: 1. Yes, you can get access to your crushes info only after you ""like"" each other. That’s because we want to make sharing personal info more private and real. Picture this: you're in a cool bar, and somebody wears a neon sign that screams, 'I want three kids, I have a dog, and I'm a lawyer.' This would look weird, right? We're bringing back analog ways of dating and let everyone feel if there's a spark or not. 2. Uh-oh, sorry about the mix-up! No one should get likes from people they're not into. Clearly, a little bug on our end, but hey, we're on it. Just email us at hello@raw.app with your phone model, software version, and the number you used to sign up. We'll sort it out quickly! 3. Our invite system is there because we want more amazing people like you on RAW. But no stress, we can grant you access without invites, just because you're that fabulous :) Just send your phone number to hello@raw.app, and we'll have you set up in no time. Big thanks for your feedback! We're crossing our fingers for you to find that electric 'love at first sight' moment with us.
I really like the design BUT
Response from developer
Thank you so much for your review – couldn't agree more with you, you're speaking straight facts! You're absolutely right, you don't have to open your wallet for RAW – our app is totally free. And it's by choice. Most of our users are students and young professionals, and we get that not everyone has extra cash for dating apps. So, as this cool, eco-friendly project, we're thrilled to offer them free access to bring even more RAWsome people onto our app. We see it as a win-win for everyone. Our current mission is to help as many people as possible find love on RAW. Let's be honest, the cost of living is high, and love shouldn't come with a hefty price tag. Now, about the age thing: just drop us an email at hello@raw.app with your complete phone number, phone model, system version, and the correct age range. We'll get that sorted out in a jiffy, and as a special bonus, we'll hook you up with a Premium account.
Awesome concept
1. Definitely needs a bigger user base. I’m getting shown users in different states which I assume is due to lack of users.
2. Being able to set a mile radius would be awesome because yea it’s nice to meet people in other places but when it comes to dating I will not drive 250 miles to meet someone.
3. There should be some prompts as to what a good photo is, I’ve seen some dark and blurry pictures.
Really cool app and concept and would love to see it grow and improve. Low 4/5 for now.

Hi, Thanks for your feedback! If you've noticed that you're seeing people a bit further from your location, it means you've gone through the nearby options, and we're expanding the search area a bit. But don’t worry, if new people join in and they're nearby, we'll narrow it back down. Now, when it comes to photos, we're planning to work on improving the lighting without changing how people look. We want everyone to be the realest and rawest version of themselves, because that's what matters the most on our app. Once again, a big thank you for your thoughts. Email us at hello@raw.app with the phone number you used to register, and we'll hook you up with a free Premium account.
