Fab way to make queer connections ✨ **Developer response:** Thank you for being part of it! These stories make our hearts melt 🧡 ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-07-16* Love this queer Couchsurfing community. The app works better now and more and more people are joining the network now. **Developer response:** Thank you for being part of it! Really happy to hear the app's working better, more community means more couches and even more connections 🧡 ### 5/5 — Best App ever *2026-06-13* I genuinely love Quouch! I think it’s an amazing idea to create an opportunity for safe travelling for queer folks without having to spend a lot of money to a fancy hotel. Quouch is so easy to use and accessible. I have had only positive experiences with using it. It really helps community building, finding places to stay or hang, sometimes even friends in other cities or other countries. Also a lot of queer folks seem to love travelling (what a coincidence) so there are many people to host you in different places in the world. Thanks for creating this nice app! 💜 I will keep on using it for many travels in the future **Developer response:** This absolutely made our day, thank you! 😭 Community, affordability and safe travel are exactly what we set out to build, so hearing it's actually working that way for you means everything. We'll love to keep having you along for the ride 💜 ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-06-10* I’ve been a host on Quouch for 2.5 years and have had nothing but great experiences. Highly recommend! **Developer response:** Hello friend! Thank you so much for being part of this 🧡 ### 2/5 — So much potential *2025-12-21* I bought the premium yearly subscription to this app. It is so glitchy that it’s borderline unusable. Hosts never reply to inquiries, and the search function glitches out both as a list and a map, showing “0 results” on the list while showing several people on the map. It also will show random hosts on the homepage with their location as, for example, “Portland, United States” but nowhere on the profile does it specify which state they’re in. Maine? Oregon?. It’s annoying. I really want this app to exist and succeed so I don’t regret paying for premium, I just hope that yall can get the funding needed to fix these issues. Good luck! **Developer response:** Hello, we really appreciate you writing this out in detail. You were right about all of it. The search, the map logic, the general glitchiness... We've gone through a full redesign and most of what you described is fixed. Hope you'll give it another shot 🧡 ### 3/5 — Not enough people *2025-11-07* I love the concept, and have used the app both for hosting and couchsurfing. Unfortunately, even in big queer cities (Madrid/Barcelona) there is barely enough people to host. It has happened for me multiple trips now that I don’t get any replies, and therefore am not really able to use the app. It’s quite frustrating. **Developer response:** Hello! This is a work in progress and we won't pretend otherwise. Growing the host community in Southern Europe is something we're actively working on. Hope you'll come back for your next trip 🧡 ### 3/5 — Buggy, empty, but with potential *2025-09-07* Such a cool and necessary concept! Unfortunately the app is extremely buggy and there’s not enough people using it… huge potential though. Hoping it’ll be improved!🙏🏻 **Developer response:** Hello friend! The bugs have improved a lot with our recent redesign. Community is growing faster than ever, too! Thanks for seeing the potential even when it was rough, means a lot from early users 🧡 ### 5/5 — Finally!!! *2025-08-20* Safe(r) Couchsurfing for Queers!!! I am so excited this app exists :) ### 5/5 — Finally I can travel with/to like minded people *2025-08-20* I love how I can see if our interests match and therefore I don’t have to fear for judgement or so. My excitement for my next trips rises by like 1000% because I know that there will be someone fun to meet. 😊 **Developer response:** Hello friend! Love that excitement, that's exactly what Quouch is for! Hope your next trips are fantastic 🧡 ### 5/5 — Find queer hosts and travel buddies *2025-08-20* Such a cool app for finding LGBTQ+ hosts for couchsurfing or hanging out with whilst travelling **Developer response:** Thanks for spreading the word! 🧡 ## Frequently asked questions about Quouch ### What is Quouch?
