Terrible. Why are influencers pushing this

Great app for meeting like minded fitness people!

Predatory, find another app

The app requests access to your personal contacts for verification, which I find suspicious. Thereโ€™s also a monthly fee for more connection options. The caveat is that you need to buy gems to send likes. Now Iโ€™m stuck with a 6 month membership and the requirement to purchase additional gems just to connect with people.

Regret downloading

Pretty terrible app, first off was super weird that it requires you to share every contact in your phone with them in order to get in. Once I was accepted I realized there is no way to filter age or distance. I am 22 living in California and the app is showing me 40 and 50 years olds on the other side of the country. Whoever designed this app didnโ€™t really seem to put any thought behind it.

Data grab

I like the idea - concerned they require full access to all contacts for verification of your profile. SURF requires full access to my entire contact list before allowing me to continue. Limited access wonโ€™t do it. Their App Store privacy label says Contacts may be collected, linked to my identity, and used for analytics, personalization, app functionality, and contact info/identifiers may be used for tracking across apps and websites. I could not find a clear explanation that contacts are only processed on-device, hashed, deleted after verification, or never stored. For a dating app, requiring access to every person in my address book feels excessive and invasive.

Then if you say skip - they say you have a low chance of approval for your profile.
