Hello

Is this app working?

Dissapointing

Was excited to see an app by the community for the community, but this was just dissapointing. I've tried this app out three times now. Had issues with the app not working, tried upgrading and features didn't work, trying to choose a filter crashes the app. I recently saw that the creator was still posting on tiktok like this app was still go ng, but when I went to check it out again, there was literally no one left and profiles hadn't been touched in several months. Could have been super cool and hope it can be fixed in the future.

10/10 Compared to other apps on market.

Way less ads, better flow of communication between guys, never had an app that feels more inclusive and enjoyable of an experience overall!

Paid for upgrade nothing was upgraded

When you pay for the upgrade you get all the features they list. I paid for the upgrade but did not get any of the listed features. I want a refund.
