## What is Sweet Pea?

Welcome to Sweet Pea, the purpose driven dating app designed to make meeting online feel more like meeting IRL. Think of us like your local hang out spot – a community filled with good conversations, interesting people, and a few friends by your side ready to step up and be your wingman. 
 
Meeting new people on Sweet Pea is less about swiping and more about starting conversations to get to know people. Ask and answer questions, comment on fun facts, or reply to wingman videos to start conversations. Sweet Pea users have found that thoughtful or funny first messages are 3x more likely to get a response vs. a quick right swipe. Our community focuses on quality, not quantity, so that slowing down and having a real conversation (and swiping less) is the norm, not the exception. 

Q&A’s make it easy to create a great profile that shows the real you and makes getting to know people easy. Have fun telling your story, your way with photos, video stories, fun facts, “My Life in One GIF” and so much more. 

Wingman: they say friends are the real authenticity test. Send your inner circle a “wingman” and they can answer funny, sincere, or heartfelt questions through short video collages on your profile that help matches get to know you, strike up a conversation, and see why you’re a catch. 

FREE to use and ad-free. An option to become a VIPea to get unlimited matches and more helps us continue to improve and makes your experience even sweeter.

Icebreaker Questions help the conversation get started.

More safety features than most dating apps ensures that Sweet Pea remains a welcoming, inclusive, and safe community.


Your data is always protected. We believe and respect that dating is personal, and unlike other dating apps, we do not sell your data.

### 3/5 — More thoughtful than some alternatives. Indie. Buggy

*2022-03-29, version 4.6*

PROs • Seems to be largely spam-free! • Reasonable functionality for free • Less shallow than super swipe-based apps … • Not owned by Match Group! CONs • Buggy! I even have to quit the app & relaunch to go back after tapping in the Discover section and now I have a red dot even tho I have zero messages after someone apparently unmatched us. • Unpolished interface: Lots of people have icebreakers that cut off and can’t be read in their entirety, for example; and the Discover section UI is misleading, showing irrelevant avatar thumbnails

It’s so buggy I’ve given up using it. Very disappointing

### 3/5 — Just another dating app

*2021-09-13, version 4.1*

I was hopeful that this app would offer something the other awful dating apps wasn’t and be a stand out but turns out it pales in comparison. 

It’s new so your matches are not only limited but ones I wouldn't even consider on my worst day. Even if there are ones I might consider I couldn’t tell you because when I go to view them the app shuts down and I can’t see them.

The height is listed as some weird number and I can’t tell you what it means yet so I don’t know how tall anyone is. This might be a me problem but I would rather it just say the actual height this isn’t jeopardy. 

Overall, the 3 I gave this app is generous. There’s a lot of work to be done.

### 1/5 — Can’t pay

*2021-09-07, version 4.0*

I don’t know what is wrong, devs, but I can’t pay you, so I can’t even get started. Every time I click on the link upgrade, the link closes without doing anything.***   Also, I can’t change my astrological sign. It’s wrong. Fix those things and I will give you a better review.*** There is no About Page so there is no option to delete your account. I do not recommend!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2021-03-12, version 3.29.0*

Apparently a year ago this app was great because that’s when all of the good reviews are from. It is a terrible app now. Wish I would have paid attention to the other reviews before I signed up. I extended my preferences (including using preferences I don’t really want) but apparently the closest person to me is over 400 miles away, most of them are across country. I get emails saying someone has responded to my conversation starter but I go to the app and nothing shows up. App is also not intuitive. I’ve sent several emails to support and while I heard back, they were no help at all. Think support is doing the bare minimum. Was looking forward to a slightly different format. Don’t waste your time!

**Developer response:** Hey! Please email us at support@sweetpea.co so we can further assist you.

### 3/5 — Good so far, but I’m a bit confused.

*2021-03-11, version 3.29.0*

So I just got this app tonight and it seems very promising. Not too aggressive with the “buy our premium” message which is wonderful. However, I am a bit confused about how chats work. 
      I have replied to several people’s Icebreakers. And I thought the app tutorial told me that it would appear in the Chats section. Perhaps I skipped over some words? Because I do not see my reply to their icebreakers in the Chats, indicating I started the conversation. Do I have to wait back for them to reply to my icebreaker response?

**Developer response:** Hey! Please email us at support@sweetpea.co so we can further assist you.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-02-02, version 3.28.0*

I signed up and right away got a like. Of course you have to pay to see your likes so I did. That was the only one I got. Not to mention when I get on to see who I might be interested in there’s a choice of 5 women. All of whom weren’t much of a choice. “Come back tomorrow” it says and they’ll have more choices. 5 more! Next day? Same thing!  Save your money and go to the local bar and buy drinks for every women in there. You’ll have better luck. At least you’ll get to talk to an actual woman that way.

**Developer response:** Hey! Please email us at support@sweetpea.co so we can further assist you.

### 1/5 — No matches. EVER.

*2020-09-07, version 3.26.0*

I got a few matches early on (like 3), but now NOTHING. Months have gone by with ZERO matches. There is NO option on this app to scroll though some profiles. However, interestingly enough, I get popups from Sweet Pea saying, “communication is key, try sending someone a message”. THERE ARE NO PEOPLE TO SEND MESSAGES TO! have loosened up my profile significantly and still no people to look at. I sent a message to their “help-desk” with these concerns. I got an email back asking me a question. I replied. No response back from them. NO RESOLUTION.

### 4/5 — Great layout/concept

*2020-08-20, version 3.25.0*

I really like the look of the app and how it functions. The questions are easy to answer, and I really like the way that you can leave comments on the checkbox answers to better clarify your position on certain topics. The potential for meeting some great people seems good. However, there just aren't enough people using the app to really test it out. Maybe if people start using the app a little more I'll be able to update my review.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! We would love to hear anymore feedback you may have at support@sweetpea.co.

### 3/5 — Too many fake profiles

*2020-08-17, version 3.24.0*

I’ve yet have a actual message from anyone that I’ve “ connected to “ except fake profiles apparently from Texas asking for money 😂 for.. and I don’t get anyone where I’m from, 50 miles away or New York which is about idk 6 hours away.. a lot of fake profiles or woman asking for money.. why can’t I actually find someone real

### 3/5 — The locations and notifications programs

*2020-06-22, version 3.22.0*

This app is alright and all but the problem is why do I have to click on location and notifications to deal with, I don’t understand this, you have to click the location and notifications to start with it I’m like you know what no thanks, so great dating app so far but I don’t like it when it’s location and notifications for that.
