## What is Aboard?

Aboard — love, no explaining needed

Some news changes your life. It should never take away your chance at real love.

Aboard is a dating app for people living with STDs — herpes, HIV, HPV and more. Here, your status is not a secret to hide or a talk to dread. Everyone aboard has one too. That heavy "there's something I need to tell you" moment? It doesn't exist on this app.

What you'll find on board:

- Real people nearby who truly get it. No judgment, no labels.
- Swipe, match and chat at your own pace — then take it to video chat when it feels right, and see the real person before you meet.
- Stories from real members: first dates, hard days, happy endings. Read a few, or write your own. Someone special might be the one reading.
- Events along the line, from coffee walks to weekend dinners. Tap "Count me in" and meet face to face. No status talk required — sometimes the easiest way to know someone is across a table, not a screen.
- Groups of people on the same road, ready to welcome you in.
- Privacy you control. You decide exactly who sees what.

Take your time here. No rush, no crowd — just honest people, and someone worth the ride.

We built Aboard on one simple belief: everyone deserves real love. Not despite your status. Just you, exactly as you are.

One window seat, saved for you. Come aboard.

### 1/5 — Stole my money

*2026-05-01, version 1.9.5*

I upgraded to the premium membership and within half an hour my account was deleted. If there was a score lower then 1 star i would. I want my money back

### 1/5 — Money grabbers

*2025-11-03, version 1.9.3*

You can’t do anything without paying for the premium. Literally nothing. They scam you by letting you download the app for free

### 1/5 — Could not even get started

*2025-10-06, version 1.9.3*

I tried to fill my profile and they suspended my account. I tried to contact them and never even answer me.

### 1/5 — Nothing local

*2025-09-13, version 1.9.3*

The local section never changed and has like 3-4 profiles and seemed to be out dated. Otherwise it’s No local section, everyone it shows you is across the country. Or fake! 
Terrible app

### 5/5 — To anyone feeling hopeless

*2025-08-23, version 1.9.3*

After my diagnosis last year, I felt like my dating life was over before it even began. The fear of rejection made me want to give up on love entirely. Then I found this app, it's not just a dating platform, but a cọmmunity of people who truly understand what it means to navigate relationships with  STDs. I've been using it for six months now, and it's cọmpletely changed my perspective. I've made genuine friendships with other users who've becọme my support system, and even met someone special who sees past my diagnosis to the person I really am. We're going strong, and it's all thanks to this safe, judgment, free space. To anyone feeling hopeless stick around. The right people are out there, and this app gives you the chance to connect with them without shame or fear. Don't give up, your happy ending could be just a swipe away!

### 5/5 — Cheaper and better

*2025-08-22*

Having dedicated 18 months to exploring this app, I'm continually impressed by its technical stability, unlike other dating platforms that frequently crash during peak hours. The customer service team deserves particular praise; when I accidentally locked myself out before a scheduled video date, their 24/7 live chat restored my access within 30 minutes. At $20/month, premium membership offers value-packed features like incognito browsing and advanced filters, PS charges $35 for cọmparable functions. As an HSV individual, I've found unparalleled acceptance here, our private group now has 100+ active members collaborating on awareness campaigns.

### 5/5 — Offline events are fantastic

*2025-08-21, version 1.9.3*

I wasn't expecting much when I joined! The first weekend I went to a meetup, there were 20+ people laughing about medication side effects like it was normal small talk. My golden retriever became the star of the event, everyone took turns petting her while sharing hospital stories. The groups are my favorite, our private group chatroom has memes about joint pain and swaps legit tips. When I reported a creepy guy, his account was gone within 10 minutes, PS could never be that responsive.

### 5/5 — Very safe!

*2025-08-20, version 1.9.3*

Privacy was my biggest fear, I even used a VPN at first, I took a week to cọmplete my profile,  I found the screenshot blocker feature(can even block screenshots of your profile) and felt safe enough to post my real photo. Nearby users are super accurate, I met a girl with same diagnosis day, now celebrate it as our Rebirthday, best decision this year! Also, the events feature is amazing, attended a support group last week, felt like family reunion.

### 5/5 — A small suggestion

*2025-08-20*

Clean design without all the unnecessary swiping noise. People actually cọmplete profiles here, Stories keep me updated on users' progress, saw someone post their test results last week, and Groups are better than PS's open chatroom. Just wish I could see if people read my messages, those unanswered messages still bug me

### 1/5 — Some transparency

*2025-06-23, version 1.9.2*

Your ability to do anything will be limited regardless of if you pay or not. When you use the free version, most things are blocked out (nearby profiles, who liked you, etc) creating an illusion that there is more to see when the reality is there actually isn’t. It’s hard not to feel like the app was set up that way to convince people to buy. $39.99 for 3 month or $19.99 for 1 month are some options but I regret paying for this app. If it’s possible, it hasn’t been easy to filter between straight and gay men.
