### 1/5 — App crash

*2018-11-08, version 8.2*

This app crashes every time I send a message. It makes this app totally unusable. Otherwise it would be a great app. Until this is fixed my review will stay at a 1. If I could put 0 I would.

### 1/5 — Broken App

*2018-10-24, version 8.2*

Tried to sign up on the app but crashes before I can fully make an account. Shame.

### 1/5 — Can’t make an account

Tried making an account but every time I go to enter my name, the app freezes and closes

### 2/5 — Glitch

*2018-10-03, version 8.2*

There’s a huge glitch that makes the app quit all of the time. I can’t even write a sentence.
Good app though but needs a Major fix fast

### 1/5 — Can’t log in?

*2018-02-20, version 8.2*

I’ve tried sending admin emails and no reply and the button to change password is broken .

**Developer response:** Hey, sorry about that! You can contact me at vaidhy@friendsyapp.com to reset your password if it's not working for you in the app.

### 3/5 — Swiping Bug

*2017-11-28, version 8.0*

Good app, but there is a major bug now where upon swiping a list of profiles—either through browsing or through matches—you lose the ability to swipe to the next card after the second card appears.

### 3/5 — Good app but there is a big bug

*2017-11-24, version 8.0*

After viewing everything, click the view again button. The second profile displayed I cannot swipe on. I close the app out and try again. Every single time this happens. 

iPhone 7 iOS 11.1.2

### 2/5 — The app is real, but the email wasn't

*2017-01-04, version 6.1*

The app seems nice enough and not malicious, but I got an email about it specifically phrased to make me think it was already thriving. Sign in to find that my university is "locked," meaning the app can't function until enough people like me spam others into signing up.

I immediately deleted it based partially on that and that I didn't have time to be this app's start up. I wrote this review because this app has 7 5-star reviews all from today. Just know what you're getting into.

### 1/5 — Sketchy and Bulky

*2017-01-04, version 6.1*

Initially got an email from friendsy saying someone I knew wanted to connect with me on the app which got me curious enough to download to see who. After downloading the app and creating an account (after having to reset the app multiple times due to a poor interface) it wanted me to invite five friends before I can even use the app. 

So I did that because I had already gone through all the trouble of inviting people. After all that there were no messages, no one wanting to connect, and I was left with a worthless app that took up too much space on my phone.

Promptly deleted.

### 3/5 — It's a good app

*2015-12-21, version 5.0*

So I've been on Friendsy for a long time. I enjoyed the random anonymous conversations because I like talking to a person before they get my full name and what I look like. Now with the new update there doesn't seem to be a way to talk to people and then this leads to people trying to match based on pictures and basic interests. I do like the match radius that was added but honestly that feels like the only good that can from the update.

### 1/5 — Promotes Cyberbullying

*2015-10-01, version 4.2*

Ever since the chatroom feature was added, this app have promoted cyberbullying on a new level. The admin have failed to address these problems and keep ignoring the users in an effort to address the problems. Honestly I wouls ignore all these 5 stars rating, becasue the activity level of the app is so low, that a very few users actually used the app, fewer than the ratings and the comments on here. The rating system was basically up'd just to promote the app even more, in fact these ratings are actuallt promoting cyberbullying even more. There's a difference between users who sign up for the app and users that actually use the app, and the users that use the app is much lower than the sign ups. Users have felt uncomfortable using some of the features on the app. These users have addressed this to the admins, but like I said, the admins keep ignoring it.

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2022-07-31, version 8.5*

It won’t let me deactivate my account. I’ve contacted them via email and media but no one has reached out to me.

### 1/5 — Aussie .edu.au

*2021-11-05*

Can you allow Aussie students to make an account please?

### 1/5 — Can’t even log in

*2021-10-15, version 8.4*

I downloaded the app and logged in with my school email (no signup page) and I can’t get in the app. Why?????

### 1/5 — Cant even deactivate account!!!😡😡

*2021-03-04, version 8.4*

Ive been trying to close my account but i keep getting an error message, “oops, something went wrong”. This app is a joke as not many people use it anymore at least in nyc.

### 1/5 — Been on the waitlist for months

*2019-09-08, version 8.3*

I can’t even make an account. I’ve been “on the waitlist” for months. Why is there even a waitlist? I don’t get it. If I could give this app 0 stars, I would.

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2019-02-17, version 8.3*

App completely crashes after like 10 seconds of being opened. Also when you try to open messages it also breaks down

### 1/5 — The app does not work.

*2019-02-02, version 8.3*

There is no where to sign up when you open the app. When I clicked the help button and was referred to the email I got the message that the email could not be sent.

### 1/5 — App crash

*2018-12-10, version 8.2*

App crashes after every message

**Developer response:** Hey there,

### 1/5 — Unable to sign up

*2018-11-26*

My university doesn’t use a .edu, its a .ca as i would assume would be the case for most Canadian schools.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2018-11-18, version 8.2*

### 5/5 — What the Friendsy meet college student app

*2024-01-17*

What the Friendsy meet college student app

### 5/5 — Fabulous

*2018-08-15, version 8.2*

Innovative and fun

### 5/5 — By far most lit college dating app 5ever

*2017-03-24, version 6.6*

I love this app, I hated seeing people that were way older than me on Tinder and Grindr but this app only shows you other college students which is super lit!! Pro tip: they have a search by name feature so you can find someone in one of your classes that you wanna hook up with (I did 😉😉😏)
Def would be down to see more college students though

### 5/5 — Excellent - I finally got a match!

*2017-01-22, version 6.2*

Friendsy had done it again. This update is better than the last - Chitchat has become my favorite feature. Getting matched is now super easy and really fast.  In less than a minute, I had my first match. Thanks Friendsy.

### 5/5 — Swipe. Search. Either way it's awesome

*2016-12-05, version 5.7*

So not only does Friendsy narrow your feed down to just college students, but you can also search them up by name?!? Awesome. My days of accidentally swiping past someone and never seeing them again are over. Thanks Friendsy!

### 5/5 — Friendsy is the next big thing imo

*2016-02-11, version 5.3*

I feel like the best way to describe the app is a safer, better Tinder. Since you need a college email to register you can't really lie about what school you go to and you can connect easier with people who go to your school and are your own age group.

The friend, hookup and date options are nice to have because they let you try to connect with people in the way you want to; and chitchat lets you make new friends with anonymous conversations with people who go to your school.

And there's the prospect of sending hints to that friend you're too nervous to drop a hint on ;)

### 5/5 — Never disappointed

*2016-01-14, version 5.2*

Thank you Friendsy! The newest update to this app is honestly even better. It is much more streamlined and user-friendly now, even allowing you to make easier matches (within next 10 cards) so that your request is not lost in a huge pool of users. I highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Why tinder when you can Friendsy!!

*2015-12-14, version 5.0*

Friendsy is an amazing app! I love all the easy to use features and the best part is, you're actually meeting real people that truly exist; not fake accounts... Friendsy is the prefect app for everyone. From freshman, to in coming transfers, to upper classman, this app will help you meet some wonderful people from your local college to universities near and far.

### 5/5 — Wonderful app to meet new people!

*2015-08-22, version 4.0*

I downloaded this app because I had heard that it was a great way to meet college kids. I don’t have to worry about age or sketchy people joining because you have to have a .edu address in order to get an account. I have met so many kids at my school through this app and will continue to use it to meet new people!! Easy to navigate. I encourage all college students to download this!!

### 5/5 — Sounds like a Brilliant App

*2015-04-08*

Please make it available to students of UK colleges and universities.
