Slow and matching isn’t working

The app was perfect but recently has been so slow and nothing works there anymore

THE BEST

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Access to your Photo LIbrary Mandatory

This app requires you to give it access to your photo library. You can’t just upload an image, it has to be taken out of your photo library.
Oh and without photo you can’t proceed. It tells you „accounts with photos are 10 times more likely blablabla“ which I would happy to accept the malus without photo but you can’t proceed without a photo.
This feels like the app is blackmailing me to grant it access to my photo library. Hell no!

‼️🚨‼️🚨

People be careful. When you use the app as a Young Girl, there will be many men over 50 (Scam) who will harass you, call you „Baby“ and will ask you for sexual actions in Return for Money or they offer you Money to „spoil“ you. This app is Not what it used to be. I used it myself two times to meet up with people nearby on my solo Trip, which luckily went Well After carefully checking their Profile. When signing into the App Users dont even have to identify their real existentence in any way. Textmassages often do not reach the other person and chats often either delete themselves or do Not appear the way they were After you closed the app. Also, After reporting any Scams or Fake accounts NOTHING happens. The app is highly unserious and I would not recommend to use it due to safety purposes!
