## What is Tame.?

Build your profile with your best pictures, custom descriptions and questions for your suitors to answer.

Take your time while browsing the profiles of people in your area (they are whole humans afterall). 

We verify every profile to ensure you do not waste your time on fake users, and that you are safe from scams. 

If you like them, answer their questions or send them a direct message to show your character and to test your compatibility.

If you click, you can choose to start a one on one conversation. Neither of you will be able to keep browsing profiles or to have simultaneous conversations, so focus on each other!

If you change your mind, simply close the conversation and move on.

If you are ready to apply all these principles, then don't wait any longer, and join a healthier dating community!

### 3/5 — Deserted

*2024-12-05, version 3.3*

Interesting concept, barely anyone in it yet sadly.

### 1/5 — Nobody uses this

*2023-11-24, version 3.3*

Downloaded two months+ ago and never was able to get into it because “not enough users on Tame please check again later”

How about some advertising?

### 2/5 — Maybe one day

*2023-07-21*

I’ve had this thing since close to the beginning. I even got in on that pay once deal to help them get started. I cleared my likes just to start over and see if anyone else has joined my preferences are set to a 15 year age span and 250+ miles. I swiped through less than 10 profile before I was told that I’m out of options. 

Seems like a good idea, but I think it may take years to catch on of it ever does. A service this devoid of users shouldn’t be charging a subscription fee just yet.

**Developer response:** Hello, thanks for your review, your support, and for being understanding. The reason it's been slow to catch on so far is because we're holding back on advertising until we feel confident the app is completely ready. We'll be rolling out an update soon, so check back and you might see lots of new profiles in a bit!

### 2/5 — Love the concept

*2023-07-11*

Love the concept but not enough users to match with. I paid for the month and kinda feel like it was a waste. Only reason i found this app it's because I looked up another dating app and this one had a review so decided to give it a try.

**Developer response:** Hey, thanks for your review, we'll be upgrading the app and advertising soon, so check back to discover more profiles in a bit! Though if you love the concept and want to support us, please consider giving more than two stars, because that just deters new people from coming in. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Cool concept

*2023-06-03*

Very different to other apps

### 4/5 — Okay but needs more users

*2023-05-08*

I like the concept, only problem is that it’s a new app so went through all the people in my area quite quickly. Also one match I got wanted to get off the app immediately because he thought only speaking to one person at a time was ‘lame’ but if you’re considering downloading this app, please actually honour the concept and not turn it into another Tinder/ Hinge.

**Developer response:** Hi Lola, thank you for your review. We're working hard on advertising, the user base is steadily growing but it takes a while to populate all regions, age ranges etc. So thanks for your patience. Totally agree with you on the last point. Unfortunately we can't do anything about this type of behavior unless you report the user. Feel free to contact us at contact@tame-app.com and we'll remove him from the app.

### 2/5 — Okay until someone wanted to talk to me

*2023-05-06, version 1.9*

FINALLY someone answered my prompts and they seemed great! But I couldn’t talk to them unless I paid money. lmaoooooo

### 5/5 — Unique and different

*2023-05-03*

I just love the format of this app, and it’s a brilliant way to weed people out properly. I love the no ghosting rule too!

**Developer response:** Hey! Thank you for your kind review, super happy to hear you like the concept. Hope you find what you're looking for on Tame :)

### 4/5 — Nice concept but too new

*2023-04-24*

App is still new so not enough people for dating options. Will update when there are better results.

**Developer response:** Hello, thanks for your review. We'll do our best to bring more people on :)

### 3/5 — Nice idea, disappointing people

*2023-04-23*

I really like what you're trying to do with this app but unfortunately a dating app lives and dies by the quality and quantity of people on there. Sadly Tame has neither right now.  Every time I try a new dating app I feel that it's not always that app itself that's the problem but the people using it. Also, I noticed a few spelling and grammar mistakes in the UI which I'll probably send you an email or DM about.

**Developer response:** Hello Miranda,

Thank you for your feedback. We believe that through the tone of our advertising, the concept of the app, the visuals and moderation, we will eventually be able to build the user base we wish for. We launched recently, so please be indulgent, we're consistently working to improve the app and our advertising. Though please do send us an email with the mistakes you found on the app, that would be super helpful. Have a nice day!
