Terrible support and app

I use this app for business and organizations i’m involved in at my campus. a month ago i was logged out of my account and couldn’t log in with my phone number because of an error code that kept popping up. I emailed support a month ago, and have been continuing to email every week, yet there is no response. They don’t care about their customer service and would rather throw u to an automated AI agent who doesn’t help at all.

Disappointing New App

I wish I could be more complimentary about this new app as I met some wonderful friends on the previous version, but nope. Here are my issues with it: (1) - The focus is obviously on groups vs individual friends because it defaults to groups when you open it. Otherwise why would it be set up to do that? (2) - The “Distance filter” is faulty at best and terrible at worst. At the “close” range I have been paired with someone in the bordering country (which is 2 hours away from me) and at “wherever” I am being matched with people within my own area that don’t show up at close range. (3) - Gender selection is no longer an option which doesn’t feel safe. (4) - Common interests can’t be selected, so what are the metrics, is it really only distance and age? (5) - You can’t import your old chats, so those are lost. (6) - MOST ANNOYINGLY, you can’t swipe which means if you don’t want to pair with someone, your only option is to block them in order to remove them from your view/list and to keep them from being able to “Says Hi”. This seems like the worst and most disappointing update of all.

New version is not worth downloading

Thank heavens you could get a refund for your premium subscription. This new app only showed people from the wrong city, no matter how much I messed with the filters, requested support or sent feedback.

Awful

So unoriginal and sloppy / very copy and paste from other networks and lacks taste. A message to Whitney: stick to dating and swiping… zero innovation

App won’t load

App will not work when signing up stuck at the code screen keeps saying something went wrong
