account ban

I still don't understand what I got banned for. It's sad.

It used to be good

InterPals has been around for a long time. As far back as the 90s. I’ve been a member for over 20 years. It used to be the best penpal site on the internet. People there were actually looking for penpals, with the occasional bad apple coming around now and then. Ever since it became an app, it has been terrible. Almost everyone is either a scammer or they want some sort of romance or inappropriate communication. So, if you’re downloading this and looking for penpals, look elsewhere. It will be rare to find it. It’s turned into more of an international dating app more than anything. Your feed will be full of men without shirts or women wearing skimpy clothing. If that’s what you want, more power to you. But you won’t get a penpal here.

.

There are so many fake accounts and even more perverts, it's hard to find someone on this app to have a normal chat with. It would be better if you at least had photo verification

Nab a VISA dating app.

Disappointed it is not for penpals. It is like for gullible folks looking for a mail order s.o. that will eventually scam them for something like a Visa or btc, or ppl looking to find a partner with money. They want to know immediately who you live with and how many etc etc. They do not bother to read profiles.

Full of scammers

This is a very dangerous app. Swimming with fake accounts and scammers.

Can’t send friend requests

Literally nobody lets you even request them as a friend. There’s no point to this app.

Good app

I'm completely satisfied with the application. There are two wishes:
1. Make the interface more modern.
2.If possible, make mini-diaries, with the ability to post videos and links to other resources in them. There are people who like to write about themselves :)

A problem while using the app

I’m not even able to use this app anymore and whenever i try to enter it crashes i guess it needs and update as soon as possible

notification badge

The notification badge has been there for ages, and you still haven’t fixed this simple issue. It’s unbelievable that you’re still shipping an app with bugs like this.

что вы несете

уже 2 аккаунт банят из-за "подозрительной активности". не понятно на сколько, не понятно что именно я не так сделала. я буквально немного с 1 человеком поговорила и все. ужас, а не приложение ~

Response from developer

Извините. Блокировка без понятного объяснения и срока выглядит несправедливо. Напишите на support@interpals.net с именем пользователя, мы посмотрим, что сработало, и ответим.

The app concept is great but people suck

The app is great per se, being able to meet people and learn languages is great but the problem is the people, using fake EVERYTHING I don't know why, I don't know what's the point of being fake but that's what ruin this whole app unfortunately, the fact that people has a fast track to be fake and mediocre is insane to me. I have been using it for a month and I haven't met ANYBODY genuine whatsoever. It sucks, such a waste of time and energy. There is also a lot of creeps, pervs, incels, just miserable men. Nobody is serious for any type of conversation, no language learning nor cultural exchange. Nothing. It sucks.

sucks

Account got deleted tried to reactivate it, but wasn’t allowed tried contacting support multiple times no answer.

Burn in hell!

These disgraceful clowns block the real accounts without reason, and support ignores all requests. But they don't block scammers and pervs!

my review

well i make some real friends on the app but the app itself has so many bugs, i can’t upload pics and sometimes i can’t see the pages

Waste of time

I have found one good friend here. But he’s the needle in the haystack. For the most part, it’s chock-full of scammers, perverts, and “nice guys.”

Account

I use this app so much, one day when i talking with my friends in this app, this app kick me out, then i go to inside i saw my acc logout i search my acc i saw some text on screen they said i cant go to in my acc for now, and i made another acc i see samething happened for me, i was sent email for company, but they didn’t reply me until now

Looks like Facebook

Awful

Incredible App

I joined Interpals a couple years ago and since then I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience. You get to meet amazing people from all over the world and for completely free!. No chat limits, no forced advertisements. This app is a combination of the best elements from all the other apps of the similar nature. I strongly recommend!

Scam magnet

This platform has huge potential especially with the free aspect.
However I’ve been through ton of scammers :(
But, do enjoy the worldwide perspective.
