### 3/5 — Good interface

*2026-08-12*

The interface is good and the option to send back to the queue is handy. One complaint: there needs to be a “last online” indicator. So many of the profile bios are clearly at least a year old and there’s no way to know if those users are still active or even have the app on their phones anymore. Because of this, using the “superlike” option is harder and harder to justify, since it might just be going into the void.

### 5/5 — This is honestly a great app, way more success than on Feeld

*2026-06-26*

Currently not a lot of users yet BUT because it links you with fellow kinksters who are compatible due to their test results it actually links up well and, as long as you’re able to string a sentence together, you can at least chat with folk with relative success. 
Have encountered a few fake profiles and the app REALLY needs to do what FABSwingers does and INSIST on verification via facial recognition software. For women (and men) worried about being scammed or even attacked, this app needs it to become a truly safe space. I have also found someone on it so overall I’m happy.
The whips system works well, essentially you’re paying for likes. Personally I’d just stick with that and dump the membership thing. It is psychologically a much more appealing thing than having to sign up to ANOTHER app monthly membership. Good work whoever the developers are. 
Lastly I would like to have the option to have hidden images that could be more explicit, not allowing topless images of men seems a bit silly imo but I do understand that it removes that type of men so I get their decision. This is a really great app overall, just need to turn it into a truly safe space.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for taking the time to write such a detailed review! We're really happy to hear you've enjoyed using BeeDee and, even better, that you've found someone through the app. We also appreciate all of your suggestions; they've been passed on to the team. Thanks again for the kind words and for helping us make BeeDee better! Kind regards, BeeDee Team.

### 1/5 — payant

*2026-06-17*

en fait si on paie pas on peut rien faire 🤣

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre avis. La plupart des fonctionnalités principales de BeeDee sont gratuites, y compris la découverte des profils, les matchs et les discussions. L’abonnement Supporter débloque des fonctionnalités supplémentaires, mais n’est pas nécessaire pour utiliser l’application.

### 2/5 — Selecting a birthday

*2026-03-16*

Hi, When I was creating my account on my Macbook, I cannot change the birth date from March 16th, 2006 to anything else. I think this is an amazing concept for an app, but I just want my profile to be accurate.

### 2/5 — cant access

*2026-03-14*

it seems like a good app but i can’t get past the bdsm results, the app is constantly glitching so i cant even scroll dont to the continue button, i literally cant get onto the app

**Developer response:** Hi, we're sorry this is happening, that sounds really frustrating. You should be able to complete that step without issues. Please reach out via beedee.com/helpdesk/ so we can look into it and help you get set up. Kind regards, BeeDee Team.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t actually work

*2026-03-08*

I was unable to get past the screen where you attach your test results. The screen just kept cycling and cycling, making it impossible to actually hit the save button and move on. So, my review is that it’s unusable. Will be deleting.

**Developer response:** Hi, sorry this is happening, that shouldn’t be the case. That step should work without looping like that. Please reach out via beedee.com/helpdesk/ so we can look into it and help you get through setup. Kind regards, BeeDee Team.

### 1/5 — Do not use

*2026-03-06*

Barely let you match or speak to anyone and charged my account even tho i cancelled the subscription way before because they don’t allow anything and show me the same people over and over again

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for your feedback. We understand your frustration. If you’re using the skip option, those profiles can reappear later, as it’s meant for revisiting rather than dismissing. Regarding the subscription, please reach out via beedee.com/helpdesk/ so we can look into that for you. Kind regards, BeeDee Team.

### 5/5 — Solid and Promising, Great App

*2026-02-11*

Overall satisfied with my experience so far, app is very user-friendly and is well-maintained. I find most of the negative reviews to be moot as the app doesn’t charge for anything every other dating app doesn’t also charge for, and in fact seems to offer more free/unique features than most others. Pros: The test is seamlessly included in profiles, making compatibility easy to assess. I haven’t encountered even a single bot/fake account/scammer so far which cannot be said for any other app I’ve tried. Users are much more likely to actually read your profile here as the buttons to like or decline are placed at the bottom of the page. Developers are transparent, friendly, and helpful. Interface is easy to use and not cluttered, nor are there constant ads like other apps. Previously declined profiles can be reevaluated for free unlike other major apps. Cons: Free users are limited to 10 likes per day, though this is hardly a con in my opinion as it encourages more thoughtful matching. FAQ section, while solid, seemingly has not been updated in a long time. Website and in-app contact forms appear to be outdated or non-functional, but developers respond quickly on socials. Discovery filters are basic, only allowing for gender, age, and distance (+ignore/allow country borders). Again, overall a great app, pros greatly outweigh the cons for me. Sad to see so many negative reviews when my experience has been nothing but positive, would absolutely recommend.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks so much for taking the time to write this, it really means a lot. We're glad to hear the experience has been positive and that the things we care about (profiles, matching, and keeping things genuine) are coming through. We also appreciate the notes on the FAQ and contact forms, that’s helpful and something we’ll look into. Thanks again for the support. Kind regards, BeeDee Team.

### 1/5 — Maybe try hiring intelligent people

*2026-02-06*

It's obvious that the people who run this app are complete morons. It's virtually impossible to make any sort of real connection here and they want $20 a month? That's insane. there's a reason why your rating is so pathetic. i'm not a complete idiot so if you want me to come in there and whip the place into shape let me know.
