### 1/5 — The app is essentially broken...

*2020-11-07*

Subscribed for 20 bucks for 3 months... the app doesn’t recognize that I have subscribed however and all the features that would be available with subscription remain locked from me. In addition I got several emails informing me of activity on my profile, likes and messages, I open the app to find nothing has happened. 

In conclusion 1 I want my 20 dollars back 2 I think Apple needs to pull this app off the App Store as it seems to be a money grabbing machine that doesn’t actually have a back end. It really looks like a fake social networking app that is designed to take money and look like a simply failing social media app... if I could send a message I would be less suspicious, if the app recognized my subscription I would be less suspicious... 

This app is broken, I want a full refund... I will also be lobbying a complaint with the Apple store. 

It’s too bad because I’m this time of the pandemic dating over video games really could be a great way to safely remain distant while also forming meaningful friendships that many people like me feel lacking these days... I admittedly was hopeful for this app in concept giving me an Avenue to like minded women who I could maybe play video games with and talk to. Perhaps I will design my own, functioning, version of a video game centered dating service.

**Developer response:** Hello, Ace! First - I'm sorry for this experience. Definitely not what either of us wanted. We'll get a refund to you and be in touch to start making sure you get out of this what you want. Thank you for leaving your review!

### 1/5 — It’s a no on my end

*2020-10-24, version 2.0.5*

You guys should advise a little more cause nobody is on here

### 1/5 — Worst dating app

*2020-07-30*

paid for the sub and it doesn’t even acknowledge I gave them money and nothing changed about the app from the way it was before I subbed. It shows the same list of people every time I look. It says that once you sub you get to sort by distance and age but you don’t.

### 1/5 — I, stupidly, paid money for a month subscription.

*2020-05-20*

I paid money for a subscription and it charged my bank account and it tells me no premium subscription was found.

### 1/5 — Issues

*2020-04-19, version 2.0.5*

As many times as I’ve seen payment issues you’d think it be fixed by now. Paid and still says I haven’t paid. Very disappointed

### 1/5 — What? Why?

*2020-04-11*

So you need to pay $8 in order to just talk to people? That is kind of stupid. Honestly you should just let people talk to eachother. I understand you need to make money off this app but come on? At least allow us to talk to people. You should allow us to find someone to at least game with. Tbh this app is stupid. I don’t recommend this app to anyone. At least until you fix your crap.

### 1/5 — Not Worth it at all

*2020-04-11, version 2.0.5*

Can’t even change the radius

### 1/5 — Payment should be for features, not a baseline requirement.

*2020-03-22*

In the age of dating apps like OKCupid, Coffee Meets Bagel and Plenty of Fish, the idea of having to pay to use a dating app, especially one this niche, is ridiculous. And the language used on the payment screen is super patronizing. “For less than what you’d find in your winter coat pocket”, oh yeah I totally leave $35 in my pockets all the time. Give me a break.

You want to succeed, ESPECIALLY with such a niche audience? Allow basics for free (basics include messaging and actual filtering beyond viewing people in a 1000 mile radius, as if that narrows things down), and offer premium services for premium payment.

### 1/5 — Help

*2019-11-09, version 2.0.5*

I spent 5$ from a subscription and it said I didn't buy it?? Help pls.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-10-06, version 2.0.5*

Payed 5 dollars for a subscription. App doesn’t recognize my subscription so I can’t talk to anybody, only one girl on here out of like 100 people so it doesn’t matter anyway. Don’t buy, worthless.

### 1/5 — What is this broken mess???

*2019-09-20, version 2.0.5*

This app is really only usable if you live in the US, and when I submitted a Canadian zip code, I got a message telling me it would be added within 24 hours.  40 hours later, I’m still getting the same message.  Somehow I get the feeling nobody else in this area uses the app anyway, so I’ll be deleting the app and looking for a better service.  I wouldn’t recommend this app to anyone.

### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY THIS

*2026-07-23*

This app has a borderline unusable interface and no one on it is real. Basically a scam.

### 1/5 — Worst App ever used.

*2025-09-29*

It is the worst app I’ve ever used. I don’t mean that in terms of dating apps I mean just in general the layout is horrible. The colors are horrible. The functionality is nonexistent. The price for this absolute Trainwreck of a app is absurd. I’m gonna guess that someone bought the developer and just used it as a write off.

### 1/5 — This app is awful

*2024-06-29*

There are many things wrong with this app. One is that you can only identify as a woman or man. You are also only able to say you’re interested in just men or women. You can’t be interested in both?? For things to read, there was no option for manga or comics. However there was an option for “the back of a cereal box” huh??? What do you mean you’re interested in reading the back of cereal boxes? Also for pets, there is an option for “chupacabra”

### 1/5 — No views at all

*2023-10-14*

I believe this app is fake! Only like 5 people in my whole city, and I live in the biggest city in my state! Was not worth 8 dollars. Lesson learned. Don’t waste your money on this app people!

### 1/5 — Blocked

*2023-02-04*

I recently created a profile and hadn’t picked a profile pic yet. I tried to log on to upload a pic but my iPad didn’t save my password. So I tried to reset but it never happened. So I tried to create a new profile but the app closed as soon as I tried. I guess I’m blocked now lol.

**Developer response:** Hey BigTrouble78,

Apologies on the delayed response, and also for the issue.  We did recently fix a forgot password bug on the app, so it's worth a retry if you're still interested; also, you are definitely not blocked!  Our team is also happy to assist you if you need anything - just let us know!

### 1/5 — Poor layout and filters do not work.

*2022-09-28*

This app has little to offer.. the set up is confusing and I can’t figure out how to edit my info cause I made a mistake. Secondly I changed all the filter settings even set the distance to one mile and every thing else to different “frequencies” and the same people form 7 states over were still showing up nothing changed at all. Do not waste your time or your money glad I didn’t spend anything

### 1/5 — Do NOT download this app!

*2022-08-22, version 3.0.1*

If I could give it 0 stars, I would. I made a subscription figuring it’d be like minded people and a decent amount of people to get to know. It is the total opposite and I don’t even know if the people on the app are even real. 

They have made it IMPOSSIBLE to cancel my subscription and I am having to cancel my card just to not impose another charge. I WANT MY MONEY BACK!

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money, let alone your time.

*2022-07-11*

I don’t know what possessed me to pay for this app. I got it two and a half months ago, and paid for a subscription. There were profiles in my area, and I sent out some messages to other members. Not only did no one every reply, but I found that not a single person has even viewed my profile on the site in two and a half months. I got back on the other day and saw the exact same profiles that were there before. I’m pretty sure no one uses this site, and with only three reviews on this app at the time I’m writing the review, I was a fool for giving a dime to try to find a girlfriend who plays games on LFG Dating.  Don’t waste your money, let alone your time.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2021-05-24*

Paid for a “premium membership” and it acts like I don’t have it. Plus, without a membership it’s completely worthless, ain’t nothing I can do but edit my profile, like what. I need my money back; I wish I would’ve read these reviews first. Unbelievable

### 1/5 — Cannot message anyone

*2021-01-15*

I downloaded and when I tried to message someone, it told me I need premium subscription, I paid for it and I still cannot message anyone. This app is a scam.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-06-10*

I've been on website for awhile but just transitioned to the app and like it much better. User friendly and just easier. I think the prices are fair for what you get. Cheaper than any other dating website.

### 4/5 — Error message when sign up

*2019-05-22*

Other than error message when signing up it’s ok, either I have account and didn’t remember or forgot about it

**Developer response:** Hi 17654,

This is Pat, one of the co-founders at LFG, and I apologize for the sign-up error.  Please shoot me an email at patrick.rafferty@lfgdating.com, and we'll help get your account squared away.  Have a great rest of your week and weekend!

### 4/5 — Paid subscription, still can’t send messages...

*2019-05-11*

Edit: it was taken care of and quite quickly by someone who works there. Bumping up my rating and thank you for fixing the problem. 

Listen, the idea for the app is perfect.. it would be great if it actually especially since I just spent 5 bucks to message not just the only girl in my area, but the only girl that mentions world of Warcraft within like 4 states. So... fix it please? I tried to restore it as well, but nothing.

**Developer response:** Hi theTank1150,

Thank you for downloading the LFGdating app!  We want to get this resolved for you as quickly as possible - do you mind sending us an email to patrick.rafferty@lfgdating.com?  Thanks, and have a great rest of your weekend!

### 3/5 — Really liked to use it

*2019-05-19, version 2.0.0*

I’d really like to try this app but I don’t think my zip code is in your data base it’s 76126. I guess If it’s not no one would be in my area either

### 2/5 — Can’t even register

*2025-02-21*

I downloaded the app and tried to register and log in 3 times and the app just kept closing when I would hit submit.

### 2/5 — Lets be real

*2022-03-19, version 2.0.5*

The lack of an age or location filter is why this app doesn’t do well.

### 2/5 — Nobody’s Here.

*2020-05-10*

I paid for a subscription because you can’t do anything realistic without one. Problem is, there’s nobody here. Can’t organize by age, so I’ve got the same list of people as I did last week, and half of them are WAY too young, so to even message them is out of the question. Going to ask for a refund, because this has been a waste.

### 2/5 — Great idea, but good luck getting a match

*2019-08-08*

It really is a great idea, but you spend $5 to send “messages” to matches that aren’t active or aren’t close to you. Not enough activity at all even when expanding the radius crazy far out. Not worth it currently.

**Developer response:** Hi, Jefferz34! Thank you for being with us! I'm sorry for the experience you had with a lack of matches near you. We're growing everyday, and it sounds like we're not where we want to be member-wise near you. Please let us know how we can make it up to you, and we'll jump on it. Thank you so much for the review!

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-05-09, version 2.0.0*

I keep getting error code zip code not found.
