### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2026-07-27*

How do you go from saying,” the people you interact with are real to them all being bots -_-. Just another clone of past apps

### 1/5 — Scam, don’t wast your time!

*2026-07-26*

First off the app quickly forces you to pay $5 which does literally nothing and grants you zero additional access! Shortly after you pay that they prompt you to pay $20 for a 1 months subscription and you get slightly more access but totally not worth it! Not 1 single real person on there, they all send photos and videos and you can’t open them (without paying more) and they get mad and quit chatting because you’re not paying to see the fake photos/videos! Another fun fact is they send a location which 3 nearby places I know who lives at those particular homes and it’s not the supposed people on the app! Requested a refund through the app which I’ll likely never see so went to Apple for a refund! Don’t waste your time, so many better and legit apps out there! The developers know this is a scam and it needs to be taken out of the App Store ASAP!

### 1/5 — 4.99 upgrade

*2026-07-25*

How do I X out of the 4.99 upgrade promo? Because there is no back button nor any X button. So how do I refuse the promo and get back to talking with the
ladies?

### 2/5 — Spend $300 in a day

*2026-07-16*

Can’t send messages without a subscription. Enough said, it’s the paywall to end all paywalls
