I’ve seen people bare nude on there and it somehow got approved to be on a profile. Then theres ad’s, if you swipe for more than 3 seconds you’ll get one. Not to mention it’s the same ad every time. Overall the apps not worth it, 4/10 ### 3/5 — It’s a good app but there some things that need to be added/updated *2023-11-01* First off when your in the app and you get done editing your profile, it switches genders! For example if I where to have it on girl, I would save the profile that I just edited, start swiping and it’s all boys, so you have to go back in and change it back to girl! Another thing is that I keep getting ages that I don’t want! For example let say I want the age of 13-15I can’t get those ages cause 16-17y keep showing up! I wish there was a way to select the ages that you want and you can just pick it out like that! Finally you have to wait 5 hours for more diamonds and some people don’t have the time to wait! It’s also filled with predators who are gross and want to take advantage of children. Other than that it’s an ok app ### 3/5 — READ THIS RN *2023-10-07* Okay so first of all , when I downloaded this app it was alright I loved it but the only thing is you should be able to text people without u having to buy premium or whatever it’s called because for me you have to buy in order to message someone! I find it stupid because you should not have to pay freaking 5:99 or however much it said just to message someone! ### 3/5 — 3/5 *2023-09-20* Hey there peeps! I honestly and I am being honest, I would rate this app a 3/5! The only problems I have is that when I requested to only have people from my country to search for it still gave me people from the other country! The other thing is, when I blocked someone on there, that same person came back to my page texting more stuff even though I blocked them! I hope this was useful and I would definitely get this app cause it is amazing! ❤️ ### 4/5 — It’s a good app but there some things that need to be added/updated *2023-07-31* First off when your in the app and you get done editing your profile, it switches genders! For example if I where to have it on girl, I would save the profile that I just edited, start swiping and it’s all boys, so you have to go back in and change it back to girl! Another thing is that I keep getting ages that I don’t want! For example let say I want the age of 13-15I can’t get those ages cause 16-17y keep showing up! I wish there was a way to select the ages that you want and you can just pick it out like that! Finally you have to wait 5 hours for more diamonds and some people don’t have the time to wait! Overall it’s a nice app and I really do like it! ### 3/5 — Good but needs additions *2023-06-27* It’s an ok app but it doesn’t give you an idea of they’re interests and what they’re on the app for. Also, im led to believe this app isn’t “just” to make friends as I can only swipe specifically for boys or girls it seems as it more of a dating app rn. If that’s true and there’s no descriptions this app is basically a dating app for hot teens and I’m not here for it. It’s kinda messed up. But I’ll give credit because it doesn’t look like too many people use it that way and there seems to be many ground rules. So good but please make tweaks. ### 3/5 — It’s okay I guess 🤷‍♀️ *2022-11-08, version 2.1* I have made a few friends, so it does what it advertises I guess lol. The only problem I have is if you try to delete friend requests of people who’ve previously tried to friend you and you deleted it even then, it tends to just allow them to friend you? If been to afraid to delete friend request lately tbh but otherwise it’s an okay app that does what you would expect it to do. I do wish there was a bio part too, because I’ve one too many requests for nudes that I could of avoided if there was a bio. ### 4/5 — Review *2022-03-26, version 2.1* I have met so many great people and I love the feature that you have to get gems to heart people but the thing which I don't like is the fact that you have to pay $10 to talk to anyone on the app so that is the only thing I would change about that app otherwise its great. ### 3/5 — eh *2022-01-16, version 2.1* it’s fun and very straight forward. However, i cut my hair shortly after getting the app so when i tried to change my profile photo to me with short hair from me with long hair, it told me that i needed to show my face and to not show nudity. i get why they do that but they could at least have someone review the photo. now i can’t get rid of my face with long hair without not having a profile photo. ### 2/5 — Swiping app *2021-05-03, version 1.5* Most of the girls I match with this app i add their Snapchat to makes friends some girl making Constant off their snapchat to sell their nuds and their body to their friends and some of the girls I add were hookers and ask if I was down to hook up for $ that a big red flag for me I mean yeah there some cool people who just wanted friends just like there some guys who want friends to but oh and yeah there little boys and girls that 15 -17 years old here there should be like a age gap or something and you can’t repot people some please do something about 3 stars at best that my take on this ### 4/5 — Liking it *2021-04-20, version 1.5* This app has been helpful with meeting more legit people on Snapchat. Minor glitches if any. Smooth app. Downside is that you only get a certain amount of times to match with people. Then you have to either wait five hours for mirror pay money. Still worth it though. ### 4/5 — Great for new friends *2021-03-22, version 1.5* I like this a lot. If you ever feel that you want more friends then this is the app to get. I’ve gotten a few new friends with this app and it’s made me feel less self conscious about the amount of friends i have. Don’t love all of the ads and diamonds but it’s not a big deal. Give it a try! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I almost got leaked *2024-05-21* While on the App looking for some friends a beautiful girl had added me and asked for an explicit photo and when I denied I only sent a photo of my wall with my waist and below in the wall and the person I was talking to ended up being an Indian scammer that tried to blackmail me and I had to get a friend to help fix the situation and the guy was asking for 150$ dollars and if I didn’t have the money then they would leak the edited photos of me and I feel that I should be given something after the incident for blackmail and for my mental health. ### 1/5 — this app is literally dangerous?? *2024-05-18* Admittedly I’ve had this app since I was 13 or 14. At the time I was just looking for a bf or someone to call my own. As soon as I made an account on the app, people started adding me, which I assumed was good. So I’d add them back if they were cute, yada yada. But many of these “teens” that were “my age” would ask for snap, then ask for nudes. My 13 year old body was invaded because of this app. Because of this app, grown men have been able to pressure me into sending nudes under threat of hurting me, or even worse. Then after all that, I was blackmailed, and when I had nothing else to do, I called the police. And guess what? They couldn’t get any info from this app. absolutely NOTHING. I would argue that this app doesn’t save ENOUGH data. Pedophiles and criminals can run free on this app without worrying about being caught. Nothing is in place to verify identity, or track down a CRIMINAL once they’ve hurt someone or worse. I have evidence to prove my own experiences, and nothing can be done by cops because this app is worried more about the creeps and pedophiles it caters to, than the children being harmed because of its negligence. ### 1/5 — a predator cesspool *2024-05-14* i have no idea how many times i have came across grown, (i’m talking 20-30) year old men posing as teenagers on here. whenever you confront them they will always come up with the same excuse of “it was a mistake” or “it was a glitch”. no matter how many times you report them, the app doesn’t do anything. it is ABSURD that the moderators would allow for any of this, the fact that there’s so system in place to verify age is dangerous. every time you call them out on their predatory behavior it is met with. “but i told you my actual age though,”. as if they don’t understand the entire concept of grooming. apart from just being a spawn for grooming, creeps and well, p*def*les. it has very simple and minimal coding and programming. the app is painfully simplistic. no bio, minimal 3 photos, no interest tab. nothing. lol, don’t get this app. ### 1/5 — I was banned for no reason *2023-08-06* I was banned for no reason… without proof or reasoning… I’m barely on the app and would delete it when I get bored of it and miraculously get banned once I re-download this app… I don’t talk to anyone on this app(bc they are weird perverts) and i don’t much in order to break the regulations and rules… so my account was banned without reasoning and I am immediately greeted with a message “🚨your account is banned” Everytime I open the app… quite frustrating but this app was filled with pervs and scammers anyway… I would not recommend this app at all ### 1/5 — Too many predators *2023-07-13* I’m a 14 yo girl, and have been using this app for now 4 months. This app has way too many predators (older men); that are h^rny and look for minors to mess around with. Other minors (mostly boys) also look for other minors to mess around with. And what I mean by “messing around” is these men/boys look for girls to either hook up with, j€rk of to, or try to s3nd (aka sexting or nudity). The people I’ve tried blocking keep coming back but on the same account, as in they keep sending me request to be “friends” and every time I’ll try to block them, I see a new request the next day. I have tried contacting the founder, he’s done nothing about it. I’m sick and tired of this stuff happening, letting minors get missed treated by older men and boys. With there not being any monitoring on this app. Please, if you want friends I’d try this one app called Yubo. ### 1/5 — 💀 *2022-11-29, version 2.1* So I’m not sure if the developer is gonna see this but anyways so I love this app very much I made a lot of friends how ever some of them are weird I usually block them but some how they find me again? Anyways so the reason I’m here is basically I accidentally swiped on someone that I did not want to match with so after that I logged out of my account and tried to get back in and it told me I was banned so I was confused of why I was banned because I did not terminate the guidelines I followed every single one of them I only talk to ppl either way I barely been on that app I have another app I use which is called wink you can make new friends up there as well and I mostly spend my time on there but why when I log out of my account on this app I get banned for nothin so now I’m trying to figure out how do I get unbanned? Because I did nothin and it waited till I logged out of my account to ban me like wha- when js could’ve just banned me right there on the spot but like I said I did nothin to anyone or the guidelines and I’m basically banned for no reason so u this please help🥲 ### 1/5 — Nice app *2022-11-03, version 2.1* I think this app is pretty cool but there is a lot of problems there are a lot of bots or scammers or people that want your money or things like that not really like friends and also I have seen some weird stuff on there and my account got banned for no reason or no explanation at all and I have been following the guidelines and things like that. And also they are a ton of scammers on there I was originally there to make friends and things like that. ### 1/5 — Banned?! *2022-08-28, version 2.1* This is a horrid app. I used it for one day and was banned for absolutely no reason. I wasn’t even given an explanation. I hardly even used it for an hour. I never got to message anyone either. I wasn’t given a chance to appeal the ban or see what the reason for my banning was. That and the app recommends 13-15 year olds as friends to 17-19 year olds. As a teenager and older sibling, I used apps my sisters use to keep track of their activity. If I was banned from the app with no explanation, and I hardly even used it, what does that say about the interface? I don’t think I’ll be coming back. ### 1/5 — Blocking problem *2021-12-01, version 2.1* So I have screenshots as proof, someone (no name) was harassing me so I blocked them. The next day they somehow added me again and harassed me some more. So I again blocked them, this goes on for a few days and now I have to block them almost 5 times a day. What’s up with this? If you block someone they shouldn’t be able to add you back! Fix this problem swiping! I’m tired of being harassed by the same person! That’s why I blocked them in the first place! ### 1/5 — I believe that this app uses your info and face recognition. *2021-05-06, version 2.1* Just the signing up process alone raises red flags, and the fact that I could not skip the verification process for later is concerning I shouldn’t have to be forced to be verified unlike other apps they give you the option to do so not force it down your throat to proceed. I couldn’t even do a half face to proceed as well so I’m suspicious of this app. Also I can’t even get passed the picture process because it says all my pictures I put have no face but when I put like a cartoon character it works... I even show the full face and nothing is blocking it. It’s annoying. I’ve deleted this app afterwards. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Swiping *2022-12-26, version 2.1* App is very fun chatting opinion is kind of slow and laggy but overall a very well organized app it’s very fun to just chill and swipe!!!! Would definitely recommend getting the 10 dollars a month subscription for unlimited swipes!!!! ### 5/5 — Very good *2022-10-14, version 2.1* This app is good but the problem is for the subscription most of us did not have money to pay for this app you guy would have allow us to see how the app work before we can start paying I hope this idea will be useful ### 5/5 — Is *2021-12-01, version 2.1* This app is extremely dumb try posting like a wall picture that says stuff on it Said removed for nudity I posted one with my face same thing but u see boys showing there abs bit other than that a pretty good app ### 5/5 — It’s not bad *2021-07-16, version 2.1* It’s a great app but my account says I’m banned for no reason it’s says 12+ years old I’m 14 I don’t know why I’m banned creators if you could reach out to me about it just reply to this thank you and have a nice day or night ### 5/5 — Yeah *2021-04-24, version 1.5* Yeah yeah I’m just a scary scary thing I got a little bit more I think I’m a little scary but I’m a little bit tired I’m not sure what I can say I just want you know that I’m not going through this I’m just not sure why you don’t know why ### 5/5 — Great app *2021-04-06, version 1.5* I really like this app. It is fun and easy to use. It allows you to meet new people through the comfort of your own Snapchat account. The only problem I have with the app like many other people is the amount of time you have to wait to get diamonds. 5 hours is a while to wait to get some diamonds just to add people onto your interested list but the app is still 🔥 ### 5/5 — Good App for finding new friends on Snapchat! *2021-03-28, version 1.5* Pretty basic and nice app to find new friends or possible friends on Snapchat the only bad thing is if you only shows you what country the persons from not if there any work close to your area. ### 5/5 — Cool app *2021-03-26, version 1.5* Cool App only thing I don’t like is that people are on there promoting adultContent and it’s hard to find actual people to be able to chat with and make friends because it’s so many of those people promoting their only fans or premium Snapchat ### 5/5 — Swipe *2021-03-12, version 1.5* Love this app but be careful because not everyone on here is the real person behind their picture I found someone picture of someone I really know from Instagram but someone stole the real person in the picture from Instagram and using it in this app pretending to be that person in the picture but other than that it’s a really good app . ### 5/5 — Love it great app *2020-12-09, version 1.5* I got this app to make friends and met a guy and within minutes a cute guy friend requested and we are so close , we have a lot in common and ,it is easy to talk to him , overall the best guy I met ever . So if you want friends and a relationship this is the place to go --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
