### 2/5 — Men

*2026-02-18*

It’s like you collected the ugliest men out there.. how is it even possible? I swear I haven’t even seen one that is remotely decent looking .. Jesus.. either this app is for the uglies or something is wrong where I live..

### 3/5 — «Terms»

*2025-08-29, version 3.5.54*

…having skimmed through, «Term», I found it to be more of a «rough» rather than a «final» draft. Pretty sketchy…. ….cute brand: name & logo, tho.

### 3/5 — It’s a nice app.

*2025-04-13*

Buh, it’s not bringing people near my location why???

**Developer response:** Hi there,

Thanks for the feedback—we’re glad to hear you’re enjoying the app overall! As for the location issue, that definitely doesn’t sound right.

We’d love to take a closer look and help sort it out. Please reach out to us at hello@smittendating.com so we can investigate and make sure everything’s working as it should.

Looking forward to helping you have a better experience!

*2023-06-30, version 3.3.194*

Im34, , been on this app for 2 months. Its a good app for this generation with bold colours,  quizzes, games and questions, its just missing something.

### 1/5 — Weird app

*2026-04-11, version 3.5.77*

I just made an account, and they banned me instantly. And now want an id photo to unban? some sort of weird joke that is. wouldn’t recommend to anyone. A total waste of time

### 1/5 — A new update that is a complete failure by all measures.

*2026-03-05*

After the new update, I can't create an account. The app blocks me immediately (I'm not the only one, many girls have suffered from the same problem).

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear this and that’s definitely not the experience we want, and we understand how frustrating it must be.

We’d really like to look into what’s causing this. Could you please reach out to us at hello@smitten.co with a bit more detail (e.g. your device and what happens when you try to sign up)? That will help us investigate and assist you as quickly as possible.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. 💗

### 1/5 — Stay away

*2025-01-15, version 3.5.14*

Every person I matched with on this app was a scammer. Seriously. I think the app is made by scammers. 

Some of them were easy to spot, straight away telling you how beautiful and desirable you are and pressurising you heavily to continue the conversation on WhatsApp. 

One of them, Chris from Newark, was very clever and for about two days we were chatting away about architecture and books but then suddenly his answers became really weird and cagey, defensive to the point of being aggressive, like I’d been talking to two separate people.

So I did an image search of his photo and there are tons of articles about him being a scammer.

Avoid, unless you want to have a go scamming the scammers yourself.

### 1/5 — Can’t create an account

*2024-08-29*
