This is ridiculous and not worth it just use tik tok ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2022-06-23, version 1.10* First off, I tried to put a picture up of my cat and it got rejected… I don’t understand why a CAT is inappropriate? Second, this app is way too confusing for me. I also hate that you have to pay $5 for what? Literally just a waste of time and money. Don’t get this app, trust me it’s not worth it. ### 2/5 — Good but exposing *2022-06-23, version 1.10* It’s pretty good app it’s shows where your from but to exact I don’t want random people look at my profile and know exactly where I am there use to be a mystery on these apps on where you from but this you basically told every my area name ### 2/5 — Scam *2022-06-11, version 1.09* I tried the app today wanted $5 for a week. Then it ask for your location which is fine because you want to find people close to you. However it shows you people in completely different states!?!! What good does that do anyone!!!! ### 2/5 — Distance preference doesn't matter *2022-06-08, version 1.09* My distance is set to 12 miles and I consistently only get results over 200 miles away. I have more to critique this app about but I need to be hired on a 1099 as a UX researcher before I give any freebies away. Hmu Frenzie I need a job! ### 1/5 — Trash, do not download this app! It’s full of bugs *2022-05-24, version 1.08* Full of bugs ### 1/5 — Can’t upload pics *2022-05-12, version 1.06.1* It just crashes every time I upload 🤷🏽‍♂️ ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-10-12, version 1.19* Don’t get this app. Its a waste of time. And ads every 5 seconds. I was swiping when i just got attacked with ads with every swipe. Its a waste. Just go find another app to use. ### 1/5 — Worse than dating apps *2022-10-11, version 1.19* I’d rather go on tinder and drag my private part through glass than use this piece of garbage for one more second. The locations setting doesn’t matter, and there are obvious underage people on here and the devs don’t care. Stay away from this scam / dangerous app ### 1/5 — Not worth the 2 minutes you just wasted. *2022-10-06, version 1.19* Putting limitations on an app designed to make friends and putting pay walls in regards to who saw you who would want to interact with you and having a limited ability to see who you want to see is a recipe for a bad application. If this app add only just made micro transactions for cosmetics on someone’s profile that would be acceptable. All this is is a rewrite of Plink, where are you are required Taft premium to even be considered in the in crowd. This app is a joke. Reevaluate who your audience is, or don’t bother using that. ### 1/5 — Distance search is horrible *2022-09-28, version 1.18* I tried the 3 day free trial of premium so that I could search for people locally (cause that is a paid feature for some reason). I set the distance to 30 miles of me and was getting people that were 180+ miles away still ### 1/5 — What did I do? *2022-09-27, version 1.18* My account kept getting disabled for no reason all I was doin was adding my pics ### 1/5 — Bad app *2022-09-16, version 1.17* There are underaged people on the app pretending to be adults, a lot of girls trying to sell their onlyfans too. Many accounts are inactive and the app won’t even tell you how long they’ve been inactive. Don’t pay for the subscription. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2022-08-30, version 1.16* I have been disabled for no reason, I also did nothing wrong at all ### 1/5 — Garbage app trying to take your money *2022-08-25, version 1.16* Non stop ads, if you want to find anyone closer than 150 miles you need to pay, the first thing that happens after you make a profile? It tells you you need to buy a subscription (there’s an almost invisible X in the top left corner. Not worth wasting your time in this terrible app ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2022-08-24, version 1.16* This app is like a child version of tinder. It makes you pay to talk and see people and honestly this app is just pathetic. I tried it and honestly it’s so lame I don’t care anymore. If you want to see the same few people on repeat then enjoy ### 1/5 — So I’m guessing this app is new *2022-08-20, version 1.16* Well for starters, u guys need someone with common sense to work for u and I am offering to be that employee. Because when I set my distance for twenty miles why it is still showing me people states away 🤔 I’m doing the three day trial and I know my trial will be up way even before u guys fix that. Also, having to pay just to set a distance is mf crazy. Based off what I’m seeing u guys are more focused on money before even fixing all the problems this app has already. We wanna help u, we really do.. but u need to get it together 😂 Overall, I think this app has a lot of potential. Y’all just need a smarter team of workers and u need to fix these problems before charging ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — NORM!!!! *2022-10-04, version 1.18* Finally a place i feel like i belong. Great conversations with regular folk without ask the baggage of hookup apps. ### 5/5 — Customer care *2022-09-03, version 1.16* Please make it free app ### 5/5 — Age *2022-07-04, version 1.11* If it says that the app is 17+.. than why does it say 18+ when you really set up the account? It don’t make no sense at all ### 5/5 — Cool app to find mates *2022-06-20, version 1.09* Love it! Found some friends to spend some time with 🤟🏼 ### 3/5 — Location makes no sense *2022-09-20, version 1.17* While, the app is very good and allows you to make friends really fast. I have noticed an issue or two that I can’t seem to shake my head around. why are locals a premium feature? most apps, regardless, if it’s friendship or more, allow you to search within a specific distance with no extra cost. This appcharges you if you’re going to search locally. this really does not make any sense. This is a big issue. I understand safety and privacy restrictions, but the search function needs to improve. It needs to allow for local searches without adding a premium feature. Essentially what you are creating are just long distance pen pals ### 3/5 — It’s okay..but- *2022-06-10, version 1.09* When I was making my profile, I got some things all put up and well. However, I was only able to add a picture that had my face, I wanted to post other stuff like the drawings I made and the fandoms I like, it would just reject them though. I even make sure the art work is not explicit or anything that could cause it to get thrown out. It would be a simple drawing of something I’m making, so I don’t really understand why they would reject the drawing since I just want some people to see the things I’m into. ### 3/5 — Working well until *2022-06-05, version 1.08.1* It wont let me modify my bio, I cant type. ### 2/5 — Fun but *2022-10-24, version 1.20* The app keeps closing out on me ### 2/5 — Have to pay to find local friends *2022-08-21, version 1.16* The app is confusing. The free version was only showing me people from out of state or a few in my state over 100 miles away. ### 2/5 — Can’t use photos from gallery? *2022-06-24, version 1.10* I want to post selfies but I want to use photos from my gallery and it keeps crashing when I try to --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
