I was usually wary of online social interaction, but this space felt safe and the group chats are so funny and entertaining!! 5/5 for sure ### 5/5 — W App *2026-03-12, version 1.1.37* Lowkey writing this cuz she bad asf.. I found my girlfriend on here and she’s basically an ABG so I’ll take it. ### 5/5 — Cool concept *2026-03-11, version 1.1.37* My friend recommended this app and it’s a nice way to connect. Easy to navigate and use ### 5/5 — twice concert *2026-03-11, version 1.1.37* Found ppl to go to twice concert with!! If you’re a kpop fan would download ### 5/5 — YAP *2026-02-03, version 1.1.29* I literally found so many BTS fans to go to the concert with - I know it’s an updating app so features might change ### 5/5 — Wanderful App 🙈♥️ *2026-01-25, version 1.1.25* I’ve only had Wander for a few days so far, but I’ve already met some amazing people. I really love having the opportunity to chat throughout the day and connect in such a safe, comfortable way. It’s honestly refreshing to have a space made for genuine friendships. I’m really excited to see this app flourish and grow into something even bigger and better. It has so much potential ♥️ ### 5/5 — Early but has insane potential *2026-01-23, version 1.1.25* Great way to find a community in a city! ### 5/5 — So excited to see this app in full force *2025-10-19, version 1.1.0* I am so excited to see this app used on a wide scale as such a powerful platform and tool to meet new ppl nearby in such a fun functional and fresh way !! ### 5/5 — Cool concept *2025-10-13, version 1.1.0* This app is an innovative concept to connect people and I am looking forward to seeing the progress. ### 5/5 — Make friends *2025-10-11, version 1.0.9* Looking forward to making new friends in this app!! ### 5/5 — Top tier concept *2025-10-10, version 1.0.9* I think that Wander's got a good idea and execution as an app to connect people together, it just needs to be expanded for a larger audience (I get errors relatively often saying the servers are busy) ### 5/5 — Interesting *2025-07-22* Cool use of AI. ### 5/5 — Actually addicting *2025-07-17, version 1.0.3* The app is kinda interesting. It’s like an AI that I talk to you to get to know you and then introduced you to the right people. It’s surprisingly addicting because I don’t know what to expect every time I express myself sometimes I run into very interesting people ### 5/5 — Fun concept *2025-06-25, version 0.9.99* Neeefs polishing though ### 5/5 — Interesting concept *2024-11-10, version 0.7.3* It seems to be a refreshing concept to let you directly connect to people with similar passions and viewpoints. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Good Intentions, Poor Execution *2026-08-03, version 1.1.74* We definitely need more resources to bring people together. However, the app seems to have released earlier than it was supposed to. There are a lot of bugs, but my biggest issue is with the AI chatbot. Specifically, every time it asks for my niche interests (painting, pottery, etc.), it keeps referring me to the big groupchat managed by Tia. I even asked it to help me find other people who like stargazing, and it once again referred me to Tia’s chat. It’s like every time I ask it something, it points me to the exact same spot. Once again, the intentions behind the app are great, but there should’ve been more behind-the-scenes testing before it was released. ### 1/5 — Kinda dead *2026-06-12, version 1.1.63* Bunch of groups yes but barely anyone talking. Basically just subreddits in group chat form ### 1/5 — I think this app is broken. *2026-03-29, version 1.1.40* I can't get past the "upload your photos" part. Every time I hit next after putting all 6 photos, it restarts. Idk what I'm doing wrong. ### 1/5 — Bug fix required *2026-03-27, version 1.1.40* I just downloaded this app and deleted it as well. This app keeps asking me to upload 6 pictures and even after uploading the pics. It’s keeps asking again and again almost multiple times to do the same. Keeps glitching so disappointing 😏 ### 1/5 — Cant go in after verification code *2025-10-21, version 1.1.11* Once i put my phone number/ email is not working please fix this ### 1/5 — Confused at this bad experience *2024-10-21, version 0.4.0* I must be missing something, but all I have been able to do with this app is talk endlessly with a chat bot that keeps asking the same questions over and over again. I tried the first time for 10 minutes and the app kept asking the exact same question to which I did not have a precise answer. I quit the app and try it again a few hours later and the app kept asking persistent questions for which I did not know an answer again or were just too vague. Totally pointless imho. Waste of time. Ship something that works or don’t ship anything at all ### 1/5 — Misleading advertisements, unfinished app *2024-09-27, version 0.2.6* Advertised at Berkeley for a soulmate event but it doesn’t seem targeted at Berkeley students — there are people from other universities which are far away listed and any UC gets cut off on an iPhone (tip: use “UC” instead of typing it out) so it’s hard to see. AI agent you talk to should first prompt what you’re looking for then filter results from that. Would have left a more positive review if the delete account feature worked… but seems kinda scummy as it is now ### 1/5 — Bot only *2024-05-07, version 0.0.17* Not real people on this platform ### 3/5 — Why can't I look at the messages ppl send me? I'll see it on my home screen and wont show up on app *2024-10-04, version 0.2.6* Confused by app ### 5/5 — Interesting use of AI *2026-08-09, version 1.1.74* So it feels to me kinda like a social hub type of person showing you a bunch of events communities and people while getting to know you. Pretty cool concept ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This app is amazing! *2026-06-15, version 1.1.63* This app is amazing if you find the right group chats the picnics and all the events i’ve been to so far have been amazing highly recommend downloading. ### 5/5 — It’s a great app *2026-05-19, version 1.1.57* I love this app! Great app for meeting people especially as someone who recently graduated university! It’s the first social media that feels actually social! ### 5/5 — Helped me curate a group chat *2026-05-17, version 1.1.56* I’ve hosted a pool party and even a Euphoria watch party through wander, and honestly met some really cool people. The concept is great because I get to vet who joins my group first, so it feels curated and safe instead of random. Over time the group chat starts feeling like its own little family. It’s one of the few apps that actually helps you organically discover people around you and build real connections. ### 5/5 — Cool app *2026-05-15, version 1.1.56* Downloaded this out of curiosity and now I open it way too often lol. The group chat vibe is actually really fun, and it’s cool meeting random people without all the usual social media pressure. ### 5/5 — Such a needed app *2026-05-11, version 1.1.55* Wander is honestly such a needed app. After high school, it gets way harder to make friends with people who share the same niche hobbies, music taste, or interests as you. I’ve been looking for something like this forever, especially as someone who enjoys putting myself out there and meeting new people in real life. The idea of finding the right crowd and making IRL connections feel more natural is super refreshing. You can tell the team is putting a lot of care into it, and I’m excited to see where it goes as they keep updating it. 5/5 recommend! ### 5/5 — A lot of people to chat *2026-05-03, version 1.1.54* I wasn’t expect much but there are so many people using this app! I wouldn’t have met them otherwise and it’s cool. ### 5/5 — 10/10 *2026-04-19, version 1.1.50* An amazing way to meet and connect with people in your city! There’s so many niche & fun groups, would definitely recommend! ### 5/5 — already made a few irl friends from this app *2026-04-16, version 1.1.50* and only started using it last week ### 5/5 — Great app! *2026-03-21, version 1.1.39* Easy to use and creative idea. Made some great friends on Wander. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
