Useless unless signed in so deleting after less than 5 minutes. ### 3/5 — Like the App but... *2019-05-26, version 4.2.0* It just seems outdated alittle- all of the reviews say "over a year ago" ?? Makes me wonder what else is outdated or not current. I like the app overall- easy to read maps, locations, seems to have alot of info on bars/gay friendly hotels/restaurants , etc. Can you guys get it more current? Would be perfect then! ### 1/5 — Terrible *2018-12-30, version 4.1.8* This app is terrible. It doesn't know what it's doing half the time. Trying to search my contacts boots me off the app. Trying to follow a friend ends in multiple error messages. Thanks for nothing! ### 3/5 — nice app logo *2018-12-06, version 4.1.8* i haven't used it yet so looks good so far ### 1/5 — What happened to the Event section? *2018-11-27, version 4.1.8* This app used to be great! What happened to the Events section? ### 1/5 — Requires registration or login then login/registration fails *2018-08-02, version 4.1.6* Can't access the app since logging in / registering is required and both fail ### 1/5 — Bad App *2018-07-23, version 4.1.6* App doesn’t work and app support sends you to the web page. Latest version info says sign in issues are fixed. Using iPhoneX and can’t sign in. smh ### 1/5 — Times out *2018-07-23, version 4.1.6* Never could access. Times out ### 1/5 — Horrible after the update *2018-07-15, version 4.1.6* This app used to work perfect before they they did the latest update, now it never works properly so I’m finally deleting it. ### 1/5 — Can’t even make a profile *2018-06-12, version 4.1.3* This app is useless. I get an email saying to verify my email address. I click the icon, I get a message that I didn’t enter the code sent to my email. There is no code in the email. No customer service. No nothing. This was a waste of my time. ### 2/5 — Screen display on iPhone X *2018-06-07, version 4.1.3* Why are you refusing to fix the display of this app on iPhone X? It looks horrible. I’ve written to you about this before and you’ve chosen to ignore my message. I don’t enjoy opening your app anymore on my current iPhone. If you would just take a moment to resolve this issue I would use the app a lot more. Please fix this. Thank you. ### 1/5 — Useless *2018-05-20, version 4.1.3* This is stupid. It will only tell me what is nearby. I want to find places in other cities but apparently that isn’t an option. ### 1/5 — The login is horrible *2018-04-28, version 4.1.3* Any way you could think the login could go wrong it does. Logging in via Facebook sends you directly to create an account despite already having linked an account via Facebook. If you pick a user name with a new account that’s already been used you can’t go back and change the user name without it saying the email is already in use. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2018-04-01, version 4.1.3* Who cares about who’s where. Not useful at all. No access to useful info. ### 1/5 — I had to give a star? *2018-01-30, version 4.1.3* Normally I’d not leave any negative reviews, however you can’t contact the developer!!! It appears there is a bug which should be addressed, after several attempts to set, reset, delete and recreate account via their app or site it is to no avail! I can log in to my account, can see the account, can search the site, but DON’T LOG OUT!!! Once you do the app, or the site won’t recognize you, I did this several times. I can’t now contact the developer, but can register to get the newsletter?! I can’t log in or use account unless I continue to recreate a log-in or password every time!! This was a great app/site with support! I hope the developer sees negative reviews and fixes the apparent bug, as currently the app/site is of no use. ### 1/5 — Upgrades destroyed it *2017-11-23, version 4.1.3* Used to use this all the time. Then they started requiring you to register—no problem. Except after an upgrade it kicked me out and won’t let me login. It won’t recognize my username, so it won’t reset my password. And it won’t let me create a new account because the email is already in use (by me in an account it won’t let me use). So I literally will never use the app again because I can’t. All the while I get emails with my username used. Quite the marketing strategy. ### 1/5 — Unable to sign in on app *2017-08-06, version 4.1.2* I just created an account, received the email to activate my account and was able to login on Safari on my phone. I am unable to sign in on the app. What the heck?! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — New app horrible *2026-07-05, version 5.0.0* Why did you make a worse new version? ### 1/5 — Great concept, but incredibly buggy *2025-12-27, version 4.2.0* Terrible bugs, can’t navigate effectively or connect to Facebook. ### 1/5 — Useless *2025-01-20, version 4.2.0* This App doesn’t, even work during the Registration Prozess . There are issues throughout the entire programming. This app is completely Useless and should be removed and entirely from the store. ### 1/5 — Terrible at give directions *2024-03-03, version 4.2.0* Twice here in NYC , this app has linked directly to map and taken me in the complete wrong direction!! Not to mention old reviews! ### 1/5 — Can't Make An Account *2020-10-21, version 4.2.0* The app won't let you do anything unless you sign up. So that's exactly what I was attempting to do. It then said my username was taken, that my password didn't match, and that my email was already in use. So I tried another username and a different email which it again said were already in use? Neither of my emails had any sort of mail from this app so that definitely wasn't the case. Super glitchy. ### 1/5 — Ça beug *2020-09-20, version 4.2.0* Application sans intérêt impossible de s’inscrire ### 1/5 — Horribly OUTDATED *2020-06-08, version 4.2.0* Not worth the effort to download. Extremely outdated and not very user friendly. Most listings are closed or no longer have websites. That includes bars, hotels and restaurants! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-04-13, version 4.2.0* This app is trash ### 1/5 — Did the devs just give up? *2019-11-19, version 4.2.0* I’m an avid traveler and this was my go to app to find safe places to enjoy myself. All the reviews are old. No updates in almost a year. The app crashes frequently. It’s a shame such a resource is being handled this way. This platform and the community deserve better. ### 1/5 — too buggy to be useful *2019-09-12, version 4.2.0* just go online. this app is terrible ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Still worth it! *2023-06-06, version 4.2.0* It may seem outdated but consider the pandemic lockdowns. ### 5/5 — Helpful Info about Gay establishments *2020-02-20, version 4.2.0* I love this app because I can look up where I can go and be around other Gay men. I also like the fact that it Gay only. ### 5/5 — So glad the service got a makeover *2017-07-20, version 4.1.2* Love GayCities. Hands down the best tool for finding your way around the gayborhood. The new updates are making it sooo much better. Glad you guys finally decided to take it to the next level. It was good before, but it's GREAT now. Thanks! ### 5/5 — What a great App! *2017-06-09, version 4.0.1* Love the ease of use good to have the reviews available as well! ### 5/5 — New look new attitude *2017-06-08, version 4.0.1* New GayCities app is easy to use. Fast and tells me who, what and where things are going on in my city. Great app to use while on vacation visiting other places too! ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2017-06-08, version 4.0.1* Super user friendly and very insightful. Just logged in and everything in my neighborhood just popped up including all special events. Great app!! ### 5/5 — Ads removed *2015-06-17, version 3.4.4* Everyone, we've turned off all the ads to find the offending popups. Twitter (our ad network) has been notified, but we'll leave them off until we can be sure all is fixed. ### 5/5 — Trip to NyC saved! *2015-06-16, version 3.4.4* I never travel, it was great to have a helping hand tell me where local LGBT bars are. Definitely made my trip more enjoyable :) ### 5/5 — 구매목록삭제부탁드립니다 *2015-05-30, version 3.4.4* 구매목록삭제부탁드립니다 ### 5/5 — 구매목록 삭제부탁드립니다 *2014-01-07, version 3.4.2* 구매목록삭제부탁드립니다 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
