Needs fixing otherwise great concept and I love the added addition of events ### 4/5 — Great *2025-02-08, version 5.0* Love this but would like to see more MM hosted events if possible. The ones I been to have been a lot of fun so would like more! ### 5/5 — Nice app *2025-02-06, version 5.0* Nice concept - Recently moved to London and MM events have helped me make new friends. Love the variety, my favourites are the brunch club and fitness party. ### 3/5 — Not a bad app *2024-05-12, version 4.0.11* I love the idea of seeing melanated men only but it also feels for this privilege you’re being limited to 7 likes per day, why 7 and not 10? I had a swipe through the selection of men on this app even when my likes ran out just to see what it had to offer and whether it would be worth paying, most of the men I’ve seen aren’t my type the question is then on me as to whether I’d subscribe and hold out for the odd few who are, hmmmm I’ll sleep on it maybe this app needs to be widely advertised a bit more. Overall great concept, there also seems to be an issue with recovering accounts I ended up having to make a whole new account because I couldn’t get into my old one. ### 2/5 — Dealbreaker option not working *2023-11-02, version 4.0.3* The ‘dealbreaker’ setting isn’t working properly. I’ve set my age preferences and selected that ‘dealbreaker’ option, but it keeps switching off and I keep getting men in their 40s and 50s, and younger men, liking me. Can this please be fixed? ### 2/5 — Need more free options on the app *2023-10-29, version 4.0.3* Initially when I discovered this app I was excited due to it being for melaninated people. However I’m very disappointed with what the app offers for free, as most dating apps offer the option to see the people who have liked your profile for free, this one expects you to subscribe to a monthly subscription. This means we cannot get a feel of the app first, before committing to payment. ### 4/5 — Really liked the app *2023-10-24, version 4.0.0* You can see and match with people that liked you first and shows you who’s there for a little fun or want something serious. At the beginning you might have trouble getting notifications directly from the app but it will sort out itself First dating app I’ll advise people to use ### 3/5 — Giving A LOT of suspicious profiles *2023-03-06, version 3.16* I like the app, as a black women who is dating, it’s refreshing not to have to second guess if who I’m attracted to is attracted to me! The app has a lot of potential, but needs work. However, I will say A-LOT of the profiles are giving FAKE! Beautifully handsome, black men, all looking for something serious, great, careers, no children, live in London, actually wrote something in their bio, all over 6ft. 🤔🤔 I know they do exist, but I’ve been on enough dating apps (unfortunately 😫) to know when it’s too perfect on paper, usually means it doesn’t exist. I’ve been liking all of the perfect match profiles too to see and not one single match back. 👀 ### 5/5 — Met my fiancé *2022-12-19, version 3.15* Loved this app met my now fiancé. ### 5/5 — Really nice interface *2022-11-29, version 3.15* What I really like: Really nice interface, app allows you to do more than any other app I have come across without having to pay. If you do pay there are some good features like voice and video calling, better filter and you can rewind to see all the potential matches you have missed. What can be improved: Need more people but I guess that will come with time. In general, its a dope app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — APP HAS GLITCHES TRYING TO SIGN UP IT WON’T LET ME PUT MY BIRTHDAY IN *2024-06-16, version 4.0.11* APP HAS GLITCHES TRYING TO SIGN UP IT WON’T LET ME PUT MY BIRTHDAY IN ### 1/5 — Not user friendly *2024-04-12, version 4.0.10* The app is very slow as if it has bugs and keeps hanging, looks like it’s due an update. ### 1/5 — App is glitchy *2024-03-27, version 4.0.10* I’m trying to set my profile up and I literally can’t see what I am typing or what I am selecting because almosr everything appears blank! ### 1/5 — Give us more likes *2023-10-27, version 4.0.3* We need more likes, 7 likes isn’t enough per day ### 1/5 — Deactivated, why? *2023-10-11, version 3.20* I’ve just set up an account, password, photos, bio etc. Suddenly it tells me that my account has been deactivated and to contact admin for more details. Why? Now you have all my photos and info but I can’t access the account with no explanation. Also no way of contacting admin without access to account. What’s going on?? ### 1/5 — Money takers *2023-05-08, version 3.20* Didn’t use to charge for every little extra things on the app, no longer enjoyable and deleting account. ### 1/5 — Cannot login *2023-03-11, version 3.16* When I enter my phone number and password I am not able to progress onto the next stage. I have tried changing my password multiple times but the same problem occurs. Help, please. ### 1/5 — Don’t do it *2023-02-19, version 3.16* You’ll lose your hard earned money downloading this app I wish had never gave these people my money now I can’t get it back it’s fake people please don’t spend no money on something that doesn’t do what it says it’s a gimmick 👎🏾 ### 1/5 — Rip off *2023-01-17, version 3.15* This is a rip off, paid for premium membership and set my preferences but still get people not in my preferences. You get same people even when you reject them you need to pay for your profile to be seen by more people even when you’re already a premium member. This is a rip off ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work as it says *2022-12-06, version 3.15* I’ve just paid for £9.99 to have access for members who’s liked me but won’t let me and they’ve taken payment for serve that doesn’t work, how ridiculous only been on yesterday. Red flag for me👎🏿👎🏿 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Dinner Club was sublime *2025-02-19, version 5.1* A good friend of mine is a regular at MM events so she asked me to come along with her to a dinner experience.
