Looking for love? You can add that as well & match with other singles hoping to start a meaningful relationship! Our AI matching makes Longwalks the best friendship app.

Check out your recommendations & follow anyone who interests you. If they follow you back, you can start building your friendship - after all, we are a friendship app!

### 1/5 — Had Potential (I hope)

*2023-08-22*

It seems amazing at first - the formatting, the style of the app with having daily questions to answer, only being able to share a photo here and a pre-formatted customizable post there. I was ecstatic at first. I’ve met a cool person or two, however the cons…

It’s incredibly buggy, opens and works as intended 1 out of every 5-7 tries. Setting my preferred age range for folks to meet is ineffective as I’ve consistently been paired with folks well outside my preferred age range as well as with men who seem to be using the app like a more mindful Tind3r, unfortunately. 

If you upload a photo you didn't mean to, presently there’s no option for deletion - only replacing the photo. The features when it comes to profile customization are extremely buggy and lacklustre at best. 

It feels like it was inspired in part by the amazing app Agape (not paid, just a happy customer) but without the seamless functionality. 

Overall, about 2 weeks in, I’ve blocked several guys, one of whom persistently tried asking about explicit topics and was clearly using the app inappropriately and is still on there.  

1-2/5 but leaning 1 due to non-responsive support.

**Developer response:** Hello there! We have taken note of your feedback regarding the deletion of the image and will share it with the product team for their consideration. In relation to the app bugs and instances involving explicit content, could you please send us an email at support@longwalks.com? Including any information you have about users, such as their username or profile picture, would be greatly appreciated. Your patience is highly valued as we actively strive to resolve this issue, and we eagerly await your correspondence.

### 5/5 — Problems loading

*2023-07-22*

I really love this app. I would love to use it religiously, every day, responding to the people I have met virtually. Screen freezes so often, though, I am frustrated. 
(UPDATE): Quickly responsive developers, contacted me and offered to help me get through whatever is going on, finding whatever bugs, and resolving the problem. On my iPad it seems to have resolved itself. I will contact the developers for further information solving the problem on my iPhone. I am very impressed with the service offered by the developers.

**Developer response:** Hi, apologies for the trouble you're facing. Please email support@longwalks.com with more details about your account so our team can look into it to see if you're experiencing a bug. We're ready to help!

### 3/5 — Sense of community but be vigilant

*2023-06-27*

I had my issue resolved but yes as the other reviewer on here stated, beware and vigilant of who you’re talking to and keep it on this platform. Another tip, if you talking to them about meeting and then they suddenly say they cannot and ask you for money, don’t do it. Stick to the people on here from places here in the US that can verify where they’re from. I mean anyone can say they’re based here but it can be easy to tell who is and isn’t by asking probing questions. Do not let their stories of widow living or working outside the US fool you. There are nice people on here, truly there are. Just please be discretionary and wise. The questions are good reflections and the groups are nice. It’s a fun distraction. Just wish they had things like this for in-person.

**Developer response:** Hello there! We want to assure you that we take this matter seriously. As mentioned in our emails, we kindly request that you provide us with the email or phone number associated with your account. Additionally, any information you have about the user, such as their username or profile picture, would be helpful. We appreciate your patience as we work towards addressing this issue and look forward to hearing from you.

### 3/5 — Great idea, scammers and fake accounts ruin it

*2023-06-25*

So I’ve been using this app for the past couple of weeks and enjoy answering the questions and seeing the community support each other with positivity! Such a great idea if you are tired of all the negativity on other social media platforms.

However, this app is riddled with scammers and fake accounts because it hasn’t implemented the same restrictions as other apps. If you post in either the mental health club or breakups and moving on club you will get flooded with messages from scammers playing all the classic ‘pray on people’s vulnerabilities’ scams.

They really need a verification system and only verified users can message and leave comments on posts.

**Developer response:** Hello there! Thank you for reaching out and bringing this to our attention. Ensuring user safety is our top priority. To address the issue effectively, we request you to provide us with the profile details of the users involved by emailing us at support@longwalks.com. Rest assured, we will promptly investigate the matter and take appropriate action.

### 5/5 — Acceptable social media

*2023-06-21*

During the pandemic, social media became all the rage. Particularly “tick-tock” when using social media, I quickly became enraged. I came for pictures of peoples lunch. They came with personal agendas.  I want to community. They wanted disunity. This social media app I really like because I feel like it’s calm and you get to journal. They’re like-minded people in groups, expressing memories, mindfulness, togetherness, and Joy! this is not your run-of-the-mill social media app. I think it’s more friendly. It has a better crowd of people. Briefly, they did have a problem with spam, but they really nip that in the bud. I’m quite proud of them for that. Currently, there are no ads and I hope it stays that way. I really enjoy this app

**Developer response:** Hello there, 
Thank you for your positive review! We're glad you enjoy our app and appreciate our community. We've worked hard to address spam issues, and we'll continue to ensure the same. We value your support and are glad to have you as part of our community!

### 5/5 — Very pleasantly surprised!

*2023-06-13*

This is a wonderful app that allows you to socialize with other people based on shared values and interests. I love the fact that it isn’t like other social media where it becomes a popularly contest. Other people can’t see how many likes you receive on your posts or how many friends you have. There are daily prompts for each of the club categories that you participate in, so you don’t have to come up with your own ideas all the time. Other people respond too and you get to see what they say after you respond to the prompt. 

The only things I will say are that I would appreciate more options in the “about me” section. In regards to value and lifestyle choices. Also it would be great to have more clubs readily available.

Besides that, I’ve had several genuine encounters with other people and managed to make a few acquaintances and friendships long distance. I live in a very remote area and it has been very difficult for me to meet new people. Especially those who share similar thought processes and ideals. 
Longwalks has made a huge difference in my loneliness, which I am greatly appreciative for.

So if you’re like me- searching for genuine connections without the pressure of dating sites or popularity contests- this is the perfect app. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

**Developer response:** Hello there! Thanks for the positive review. We have taken note of your feedback regarding having more options in the "about me" section and will share it with the concerned team. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to enjoy using our app!

### 2/5 — Great App! But a lot of sign in - technical issues!

*2023-05-22*

Alright, let me start off by saying the App is great! It’s amazing due to alot of kind people on there as well as the interactive prompts to aid in conversation starters. However the app has often crashed for me and has had issues while signing in. Very recently as of May 21, 2023…..I cannot sign in to my own account! This was very troubling since I have no issues signing in to my other apps. I tried deleting and uninstalling, refreshing my cache, turning my phone off and on again. And signing in to the app using either my phone or email as prompted. Neither methods have been successful! It’s a shame since I really like this app, if I cannot sign into it, I may just delete the app all together. (if it was not for this, the app rating would be an easy 5 stars for me!)

**Developer response:** Hi there! We're glad to hear that you find our app great and have had positive interactions with our community. We sincerely apologize for the crashing issues you've faced. To help resolve this, please email us at support@longwalks.com, including your account information. Our team will be ready to assist you in finding a solution. Your feedback is highly valued as we strive to ensure a seamless experience for our users. Thank you for your understanding and support. We look forward to receiving your email and resolving the issue.

### 5/5 — Really like the app so far. Here are just some suggestions.

*2023-02-03, version 4.0.0*

I really like this app. It’s different then other social media sites and I don’t feel so bad going on it. Although, there are a few things I personally would like to see in the future. For some reason my age is showing up on my profile. I would like to get rid of my age and I can’t figure out how. Also I would like to edit my general location. It would be nice to have the option of sharing your state, large cities near you, etc. instead of your exact location. I can’t wait to see what the future updates bring to this app :)

**Developer response:** Hi! Thanks for the great review! We're glad Longwalks has been a positive experience for you. We hear you and understand your concern about the display of age on your profile and appreciate your feedback. Our goal is to facilitate meaningful connections, and one way to achieve that is by allowing users to share their age. However, we're always open to feedback and if we receive similar feedback from other users, we'll consider adding the option to hide age on profiles. We have also taken a note of your feedback with regards to location and will share it with the team. Thanks again for your feedback!

### 5/5 — Updated Review

*2022-12-21, version 3.22.0*

I JUST started browsing through and clicking on questions. I’m enjoying answering them. It is really cool to see others answer the same question and have a chance to jump in conversation. As I said I like it, I think. As I am literally just starting to click through the app. I really like the whole idea of it. So far great!

Update: I found myself really liking this app. I love the end of the week journal. I tried sending feedback but it said there was issues with my email.

**Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for the great review. Brings a smile on our face to know that the app has been a positive experience for you!

### 5/5 — New member and I’m forever grateful

*2022-11-01, version 3.20.3*

I stumbled upon this app when I was looking around on my phone for apps to help me write more and better. I’m a woman who writes books and poems and all that so finding this app, I didn’t know I’d find such a supportive and open minded community. It’s not just a writing app. Everyday they release new prompts. You can’t ever be bored with this app. I’m on it everyday, it replaces my Instagram and some of my other socials because it’s just so real and honest. Everyone’s not afraid to share their opinions and candor. I can’t get enough. I recommend this to every single human being because this app has challenged me and forced me to open up about things I’ve never even told the people in my life yet.

**Developer response:** Hi! We're so thrilled to read about your experience on Longwalks. Brings a smile on our face to know that the app has been helpful for you. This is what keeps us going. Thank you for sharing this thoughtful review.
