[Sweet] How It Works:

1. Safely swipe through the top people who are near you.
2. There’s someone you like? Like them secretly: they won’t find out… unless you are mutually interested in each other!
3. When you've both liked each other, you can chat freely and get to know the cutie on the other end!
4. When you're someone's top choice and they really want you to notice them, they'll send you a Sweet Like telling you exactly which part of your profile stood out: your school, work, about description, or a specific photo.  Sweet Likes are very valuable and rare, so it's super special to receive it!
5. Respond to your Sweet Like to accept the match and allow the conversation, or swipe them away from your Messages if you're not interested.  You're in control!


√ Sweet was designed on the basis of mutual opt-in: you’ll never receive any random messages from people you haven’t liked.

√ Here at Sweet, your privacy is a priority: be assured that on Sweet, your location is always invisible to other members!

√ Downloading Sweet and using the service is completely free! The “Sweet Like” feature is optional and allows you to stand out to the very best people nearby. You get one free Sweet Like to try it and can upgrade to get more.

### 3/5 — Fix BUGS

*2026-07-01*

This app is great but i do think they need to fix some bugs … idk what wrong with it , when i get a match and i try either replying to a text or start a conversation .. the app keep  automatically closing .. they should fix that

### 5/5 — H

*2026-04-19*

How’s y’all

### 2/5 — Good app, same system

*2025-11-23*

This app is good but not as great as DOWN. It doesn’t feel like I’m looking for love but instead casual and sweet likes. I enjoy the simplicity of the app and overall a decent app. Honestly, this app is not necessary when u could just choose to date or dtf on DOWN. I see the same set of women on here as well, even the bios are similar and I’ve been comparing the two apps for the past couple of hours

### 1/5 — You cannot delete your account

*2024-04-19*

Be aware of these apps, they won’t delete your account not many how long you haven’t used them. Don’t download this app. You will be kick out of the algorithm where you’re barely shown! You’re pretty much muted for no reason. Definitely avoid downloading this

### 1/5 — STAY AWAY!.

*2021-12-22*

Horrible app you have to pay to message people, like and skip. Like who makes people pay for that!?

### 5/5 — Best dating app

*2020-11-12*

I really enjoy this app and have met tons of girls from vegas and Texas ...  I’m super happy about this app

### 1/5 — The developer is TRASH

*2019-11-05, version 4.1.1*

I am a senior full stack software engineer, and UI/UX expert and mobile app developer. Please find me on LinkedIn if you want to verify.

When I tried to do the 7-day free trial the app charged me $19.99 and within 2 minutes I was submitting a support request to reverse the charge. 

They refused to do it, and in turn I am stuck with a subscription to the an app with the WORST user experience ever. 

1. Nearly all of the users seem to be fake bots or spammers 

2. It allows you to go thru a short list then once the short list of users is done you have to click another button to load the next 10 users

3. There is only 2 main views in the app: your profile, or swiping users.

This app appears to be created by a company that only cares about its pockets and not about actually developing software with a purpose.

I will do whatever it takes to make sure every user reads this, including reposting over and over for the next two years if that’s what it takes. 

As a software engineer and mobile developer I pride myself in coding and releasing software that benefits humanity. This is a sad excuse for an application.

### 5/5 — Set up a date using a calendar app

*2018-11-30*

this is a great app for the initial chat leave links to lead and make it clear for following

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2018-07-08*

I can’t even sign up and get past the first screen of the app! Don’t wasted your time! They have another app called down. Once again, don’t bother!

### 1/5 — Don’t waste ur time

*2018-06-04*

Fake app
