## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — It’s bad

*2026-05-30*

Cannot alter the profile pic, confusing layout, and costs money to match with people and it’s $3.99 to verify your identity… the thing all dating apps do for free

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2026-04-23*

The app won’t let me put a picture full picture of my face on it it won’t let me move the picture to where you can see my face and I thought it was a glitch and I uninstalled and reinstalled and it did the same thing

**Developer response:** Thanks for flagging this issue for us. We found and fixed a problem with the photo cropper and it will be deployed soon with our latest update.

### 1/5 — Terrible process

*2026-02-09*

Too much verification and not easy to use

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2025-11-27*

The available potential roommates Never change and I have gotten 10 daily updates for the SAME PERSON Bob is a new match! who lives in a Different city.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, we're sorry you've experienced this issue. We have sent this information to our development team, and are currently investigating why this has happened. Once again, we appreciate your feedback.

### 1/5 — Nah

*2025-11-26*

So minimal and unhelpful, slightly confusing. Would’ve considered paying in order to respond to messages, but you can’t even read bios or preview messages you’ve received without paying… felt like I was about to spend money just to read a handful of spammy or uncomfortable inquiries. Zero opportunity to make an informed decision, no thanks.

### 1/5 — Disappointed!

*2025-10-26*

In months, the matches never changed! It doesn’t even seem like the matches are receiving my messages! Also even though I have it in my settings that I’m looking for no -smokers, the app still matched people who smoke! That sort of selection is unacceptable! What’s the point of having your preferences if that’s not taken into account!?

**Developer response:** Thanks for letting us know. We’ve made some improvements since your review, including fixing a bug with the match preferences like smoking, as you mentioned. We appreciate your feedback.

### 2/5 — Solid Interface, But Sneaky Paywalls for Basic Messaging

*2026-07-20*

Easy to set up if you send a message just be where you’re gonna have to pay to receive it. There’s other better places to use there is housemates and Facebook marketplace. They are free.

### 2/5 — VIP is broken

*2026-01-22*

Says to view messages become VIP and I paid for it and it won’t change.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the feedback - can you reach out to us via the contact form in the app or website to help us troubleshoot this and resolve it for you?

### 5/5 — Fun and easy to use

*2025-10-10*

I like the look and ease of use. Getting alerts when there are new matches is really helpful.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-09-30*

Had to move across the country for a new job. I need to find a place to stay. Help me find a place in less than a week.
