### 2/5 — Poor photo review process

*2026-02-11*

It rejects any photo I upload in which I am fully clothed and just stood there, saying that it is nude content - which it isn’t. 

Meanwhile, loads of other profiles have pics in just their underpants and these are deemed ‘fine’. 

Make it make sense.

### 1/5 — Too many notifications

*2021-11-20*

No in app settings to control. They just keeping coming and notify me of nothing but asking me to use app more

### 2/5 — Still crashes

*2021-07-25*

They app always crashes when you try to open messages. Shame as has lots of potential

### 1/5 — App just crashes

*2021-03-04*

Doesn’t work and hasn’t for ages

### 1/5 — Wont connect to a network

*2020-11-26*

The app opens to an error message saying cannot connect to a network. The only thing you can do is quit. It hasn’t resolved. It’s been like this for at least a month. I’m on one of the latest iPhones. Prior to this I kept hoping more people would show up they were actually into what this app is about. But that never seems to really happen. That’s not the developers fault. It is the developers fault that I can’t use it.

**Developer response:** Hello - to resolve the can’t connect to network error please delete the app completely from your phone and redownlod. This is a known issue and the only way to fix it is by re-installing. You wont lose your profile, contacts or messages. If you continue to have issue please contact support@whappz.com

### 2/5 — Poorly done

*2020-10-15*

It’s a decent idea for an app, but it consistently crashes when you open messages making it unusable. The promised fix has not materialised after 10 months and a quick search shows that this is a widespread problem.

### 1/5 — It worked for a minute...

*2020-06-08*

Downloaded the app. Got my profile set up. Started to seek out profiles then... it quit. I tried to open it back up to no avail. Deleted and re-downloaded. Nothing. Frustrating...

**Developer response:** Hello thanks for your feedback! Could you please email support@whappz.com with your profile name, or the email you signed up with, so we can look into this problem

### 3/5 — Crashing

*2019-11-24*

The app crashes when ever I try message someone

**Developer response:** Sorry you’re having this problem. It is a known issue that affects a small number of devices, and we’re working to resolve it. If you are interested in becoming a beta tester of the new version (to confirm the fixes are working) please contact us!

### 1/5 — Completely unusable

*2019-07-24*

The idea intrigued me greatly, the functionality simply frustrated me. If the issues with the chat persist, i.e. crashing every time I open a message, then I will stand firmly that this is a dreadfully flawed app. Please update the app and fix these problems! I don’t want to be frustrated or critical of the app, i just want you to be aware of the poor functionality and resolve the issues to make an awesome app for the community of this kink! Thank you for accepting my feedback.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for your support of the concept and feedback. Work is underway to address stability issues you’ve raised.

### 1/5 — Basically Useless

*2025-06-16*

No one on this app ever seems to be available. 
I have a job. YOU have a job! Is everyone working 24/7?! 
I’ve never experienced an app like this before where literally EVERYONE seems to always be “working”. 
Bad community? Probably. 
Either way, steer clear. 🫠

### 1/5 — Basically worthless

*2025-05-25*

It is really unfortunate that this is apparently the best option for folks interested in spanking. Maybe transphobia has been part of the problem that has made my experience so lackluster, but it is not the entire reason.

Paying for premium promises that you will see 6x as many people. I tried it and saw about 3 more people than I had seen before. The messaging is glitchy, and the user volume is basically just not worth it, I guess. The search feature is likewise fairly useless, and the community/events page shows almost nothing, no matter how wide you set the distance parameters. I don’t know how others find this useable. It is functionally worthless, I guess unless you live in New York or LA, because those seem to be the only places that show frequent usage.

### 1/5 — Sick

*2025-03-22*

This app has some incredibly sick people on here. I mean sick. I’ve been off an on of this app and have quit for good bc the same sicko keeps asking me to be his “daughter slave” and have access to my behind to smell and inspect it. I’m sorry I’m a very accepting person, but if you want to smell another adult’s butt, wipe it, and keep track of the other’s BMs, you have issues only God Himself can cure. If you don’t think that’s weird, then you are just as sick… so maybe you’ll get along with them…

### 1/5 — Sick

*2025-01-03*

This app has some incredibly sick people on here. I mean sick. Take y’all’s meds.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t let you send more than 4 photos

*2024-11-13*

Unless you pay pay for an account they limit you to 4x pre saved photos to send people. Really annoying. Having pictures is THE most basic feature of a ‘dating’/connecting app and they of course had to be greedy like all these apps are instead of focusing on user experience. Also don’t like that read receipts are on by default.

### 1/5 — This app full of fakes

*2023-07-24*

Most of the people on Whappz are fakes. They leave me on read show me no interest in meeting. Some people shouldn’t be on here if they aren’t gonna bother responding to me.

### 1/5 — This app full of fakes

*2023-07-03*

Most of the people on Whappz are fakes. They leave me on read show me no interest in meeting. 
Show people shouldn’t be on here if they aren’t gonna bother responding to me.

### 1/5 — Not many people are on it

*2023-02-21*

Everytime I log on, the same profiles come up, no matter where I go. It’s meant to show you all the locals, but some of the profiles that come up on the people near me are in America… for the record, I’m from the UK! There are legit people messaging me, but you are very, very limited with your options of a meet. You would meet what’s available, rather than filtering what you like in people in other apps.

### 1/5 — Male profiles only?

*2022-11-25*

It appears to me that this site only hosts male profiles. The makers should make that clear in the description. I’ve already deleted the app.

### 1/5 — Connection error

*2021-11-22*

The app hasn’t worked on iPhone for over a year now. It won’t load, just says connection error and closes.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-04-27*

It’s a great app for meeting people in the community.  The verification feature helps keep the community safe.  I like how there are tips and guidance on safe and consensual play along with community events.  It also has a lot of customization options which I appreciate.

### 5/5 — Great for Meeting People and Staying Connected

*2026-04-26*

I’ve had a great experience with Whappz and have made some genuine connections through the app. One thing I really enjoy is seeing events posted and being able to share travel plans or see who’s traveling through my area—it makes it feel much more connected than a typical app. I’m a premium member and feel it’s worth it for the added features. There’s a real community aspect to Whappz that keeps me coming b

### 5/5 — Fine

*2024-05-29*

Good spanking meets app

### 5/5 — It’s still Evolving, not so far I love it!

*2022-11-12, version 7.0*

It’s great! I love the verification process!

### 5/5 — Fun and Functional App

*2019-07-30*

I’ve been impressed by this app since the first time I used it. It’s easy to navigate, and functions well for both quick chats or longer convos. I’ve met a number of great guys who share my interests. It’s also cool that Whappz shows you the various events and gatherings available around the country for those in the scene. Super happy with it so far!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review. We have a big update planned for early next year that will build on the event listings and community resources.

### 5/5 — Great For Meeting and Chats

*2019-07-27*

Great app with a growing user community. I’ve enjoyed meeting and chatting with people who share similar interests. The location-based feature sets it apart and allows you to meet up with guys where ever you’re at!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your support! Glad you’re enjoying the location-based features. Work is underway to boost user engagement so you can always find people near you.

### 5/5 — User Friendly and Ease of Use

*2019-07-26*

Whapppz platform is easy to maneuver and provides consistent and reliable service and results to its users. Set up like various similar mobile applications, users can expect to know the proximity (distance) of of others users and receive in-app and push notifications (if desired) when they receive communication or interactions from other users.  I am continually impressed by the growing (daily!) number of users!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review!

### 4/5 — A good application for a very narrow community

*2025-09-06*

I think it does a good job, at least in the city I live, there is a fair amount of people on the application. But of course, you have the issue of people actually following through to meet. That is the difficulty part. I will say the developer is very good about making the application accessible for blind people who use VoiceOver, the screen reader in Apple products.

### 4/5 — I

*2021-12-13, version 6.0*

How does this compare to spankthishookups?

### 3/5 — Needs more filtering options

*2025-02-05*

As a paying subscriber, I expect to be able to filter by attributes like weight, height, BMI, ethnicity, intensity etc.

Most other similar apps offer enhanced filtering for paying users.
