Wonderfully easy

I’ve just started using this app and I think it’s great!!

Amazing!

Love love love this! So much fun and wayyyyyyy better than a dating app! I get my feelings hurt way less

Waste

I don’t want an app that acts like a dating site to swipe left or right. Search is useless too

Neat idea - Ads make it ‘unusable’

It’s a fun idea, and I would be *happy* to pay $0.50 a month for this. Ironically, I almost did before even hitting my first ad because I thought it was such a fun idea, but then I thought, ‘okay, use it for more than 30 seconds before deciding, even if it’s ’just $6’ a year, $6 is $6 and you don’t need to waste it if you’re never going to use it and delete the app after a day or two’

And it was at that point that it was as though the app read my mind and decided it was going to make me regret that decision.. it pops up an ad out of nowhere with women in various stages of undress, trying to sell some dating app or porn product. I have kids! I often scroll through models with them on thingiverse so they can pick their favorite to print, so it’s by no means a stretch to think they very realistically could have been exposed to it. My kids are very young and not online by themselves so it’s also not just ‘something they’re exposed to anyway’ picking out prints is about the most they know how to do on a computer.

So that ad would have been bad enough for me to be surprised and upset, but it was that ad AND it was completely unskipable… I did not click on a ‘watch an ad for 60 minutes of no ad banner’ or some kind of offer where I agreed to have an ad literally take over the entire app and cover my screen with pixelated bodies and “we can’t show you everything”

I think - okay, maybe I’m overreacting, they have to keep the lights on somehow - let’s keep going, and I do another 10 models or so and here comes another ad! And these aren’t like an ad in place of a model and you just keep going — like when reading a news story and there is a gallery and 4 things are things you came to see and then one is an ad, and you can then just click the arrow again and it’s 4 more things you came to see. These are full page non-skippable ads every minute..

I honestly don’t know if I’d like using the app, because I can’t. I’ll take a 3 day free trial then yearly sub even.. are you worried your app isn’t worth using again?..
