Devs should try it with non-US numbers too ### 1/5 — Creepy and annoying *2023-02-27* The app doesn’t warn you when signing up it’s sharing your details to others. So I got messages from people whom I didn’t want to hear from and I didn’t know they were on the app. Also even if you don’t want it to share your location and you turned it off, it will later turn it on. Overriding your setting. No warning. That’s creepy and stalker-like. The notifications get annoying too. Sorry - it reminds me of how Facebook abuses users’ privacy. ### 3/5 — Not an app for those with no friends *2023-01-13, version 1.2.27* As an introvert with zero IRL friends I was hoping to find groups to join or people to chat with. The app does not wow me nor does the UI scream modern. For a social app this is a snooze. Will keep an eye on feature updates. ### 5/5 — Great Way to Make Friends *2024-04-29* Saturday has been a delightful change of pace for meeting new people in Manhattan. It's incredibly refreshing to connect with faces nearby and discover compatibility through the score rating system. I'm already eyeing numerous exciting social events I can't wait to attend. Recently, I had the pleasure of meeting a wonderful friend through the app, and I'm eager to expand my circle even further. If you're seeking a departure from traditional dating apps, Bumble BFF and Meetup, Saturday offers a fresh alternative definitely worth exploring. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Crazyyyy *2024-03-29, version 1.6.21* Love it ### 5/5 — BEST APP EVER *2024-02-28* I love this app. I met my closest friends at the events they organize. Off you’re looking to make new friends and make great connections this is the app for you! ### 5/5 — Love this app *2023-12-28* New to the city and have been able to make friends quickly using this app :) ### 5/5 — I love this app *2023-12-28, version 1.6.9* This app saved me. I was so alone when I moved to the city. I got the app, I met amazing people and I am having the time of my life now ### 5/5 — Really great up-and-coming app! *2023-12-28* I can’t believe this is the first app I’ve used with this idea. I’ve met so many lovely people through the hangouts. Great way to find like-minded people to hang out with. ### 5/5 — Great app *2023-12-22* I really like using this app, great design and I’ve already met several people in real life. Highly recommend for people who want to network and meet new people in a big city. ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Honestly, so great *2023-12-18* As in introvert, this app really pushed to break out of my shell and actually go hang out with new ppl IN REAL LIFE. However, if you don’t want ppl knowing your location, you should disable that feature IMMEDIATELY but get the app it’s great. ### 5/5 — Love the updates! *2023-12-15* This app gets better every update. The new chat openers are so fun. I love how they give hangout suggestions to meetup irl. I’ve made so many new friends on here. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2023-12-07* Best way to meet new people and find your friends. Highly recommend much better than bumble bff --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
