### 2/5 — I’m Not Sure About This App

*2025-04-21, version 5.0.1*

My friend encouraged me to create a profile, thinking it would be a good idea since I’m single. The concept behind the app is interesting, but it falls a bit short in execution. Most profiles I came across didn’t actually have a wingman, which kind of defeats the purpose—it ends up feeling like a regular dating app. I really think having at least one wingman should be required before you can swipe. Without that, what makes this different?

Another thing: I wasn’t able to add my own bio or adjust my location settings, including the distance range. I’m not sure if that’s a bug or just how the app is designed, but it was a little frustrating.

To be fair, I’ve only been signed up for less than 24 hours, so maybe things will improve with time. I’ll consider giving an update after I’ve used it for a week. Right now it’s not looking too promising.

### 3/5 — Location issues

*2024-01-30, version 4.1.0*

The app isn’t bad. Small amount of people on it tho and the locations they’ll say the person is a couple miles from my friend when they live across the country or they’ll give me people who are 200+ miles away when i have it set to like 40.

### 3/5 — Outdated

*2023-10-12, version 3.3.7*

I wish you could see when someone was last active on it. There seem to be a lot of dead profiles.

### 5/5 — Brother in need finds Lady Lead

*2023-09-18, version 3.3.7*

I found my brother a date, now they are engaged!

### 5/5 — Genius

*2023-09-15, version 3.3.7*

I do this all the time so look forward to doing it online now . Nice one

### 5/5 — Thankyou Wingman

*2023-09-15, version 3.3.7*

This is so much fun and my sister is enjoying being my wingman.

### 5/5 — Fun idea on a good app

*2023-09-11, version 3.3.7*

Definitely a great way to meet people and if your friends have opinions they can add them too. Definitely fun to give it a try

### 5/5 — This has been the best thing that’s happened to my dating life 😎

*2023-09-11, version 3.3.7*

I’ve been on and off mainstream apps for a short time- but letting go, and allowing my friends do all the work has led to some interesting and fun encounters! It definitely has not been boring! 😅 Cheers to ‘you know who’ for urging me to give this a try!

### 5/5 — Just do it!

*2023-09-11, version 3.3.7*

I absolutely love this app! It's so fun and different than anything else out there. I love that I now have my friends picking dates for me and i'm picking out dates for them. Truly has been such a fun experience.

### 5/5 — Love helping my friends

*2023-09-11, version 3.3.7*

I’ve always been that friend who sets up my friends I feel like in my friend groups I have set up so many that they all went from multiple groups to this one huge one we now have, so I love this idea of getting to help friends by setting them up through this app! And…so far my matches from wingman are going great so I’m just saying I might have a gift! I love the app and so do my friends

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2023-09-11, version 3.3.7*

It’s so nice to put my dating life in my friends hands - they have way better taste haha 
They would steal away my phone and swipe through my apps before. Now we just use Wingman :)

### 5/5 — Just brilliant

*2023-09-04, version 3.3.7*

My mates and I have had proper fun on this app. We made connections all over the country. I was so bored of apps where it wasn’t possible to make genuine connections. Only one comment - consider selling merch!!

### 5/5 — Great dating site

*2023-09-04, version 3.3.7*

Love how this app works and had a lot of great experiences with the people I met on it. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Great app!!

*2023-09-04, version 3.3.7*

Such a great application

### 4/5 — Finally an app for matchmakers

*2023-09-04, version 3.3.7*

I was looking for an app that can help me find a way to help my single friends and came across this one. Easy to use, great on a girls night out and actually fun to see what everyone is saying about their friends.

### 2/5 — Not Interactive

*2023-08-21, version 3.3.6*

The premise of the app is amazing, but there are way too many bots on the app and not enough interaction with real people. I’ve been wingman for my friend for two months and we have had zero responses. There are not enough active users, maybe it would benefit from an updated look/marketing.

### 3/5 — One thing right off the bat…

*2023-07-20, version 3.3.5*

My friend just made me a profile and I started swiping and right away I wish there was an option to ask your wingman about the person before liking them. There’s an option to ask THEIR wingman about them before you like them but I wish I could get my wingman’s opinion before doing anything.

I would also like to be able to see who I liked after I send them.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — As bad as people say

*2025-10-12, version 5.2.0*

No one is using it so you just have to swipe like on Tinder, but low quality

### 1/5 — Great idea but location doesn’t work

*2023-09-11, version 3.3.7*

Even when I set location preferences, it always shows ppl really far away from my friend. I just falls flat if you can’t find someone nearby.

### 1/5 — Broken App- Avoid

*2023-08-02, version 3.3.5*

I tried to be a wingman and created a profile for my friend.  That worked, but then I opened the app a few hours later and couldnt get to her profile. I could only create a new one. In the time I could access her profile, the filter didnt work. I got profiles for people thousands of miles away and completely out of her age range. I tried to invite other wingmen, but when they got the invite it said I was the one seeking a partner instead of her.  Don't use this app doods. Its broken.

### 1/5 — A great idea but ….

*2023-02-11, version 3.3.1*

The concept of this dating app is fantastic.  I thought it was a newer app until I saw the reviews from 5 years ago. If it hasn’t taken off yet, it never will at this point.  The app is full of fake profiles. There’s no one within a 100 mile radius of me and I’m in a major city!! The app itself is cumbersome and glitchy.  It’s literally the saddest dating app I’ve ever seen. It’s time to just scrap it all together. Don’t waste your time on this one.

### 1/5 — Good idea but …

*2022-06-11, version 3.1.9*

I thought this dating app was a great idea… but it’s either full of fake profiles or I absolutely failed at understanding how to use it.  I sent inquiries to over ten wingman about their single friend and only one responded.   Not all of the singles have wingman.   I like the matchmaking concept but I don’t think it works very well.

### 1/5 — Wingman

*2022-05-10, version 3.1.7*

Don’t download it completely crap who wants wingman on dating site Jesus Christ take it off here waste of every one’s time stick to tinder or plenty of fish

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2022-02-12, version 3.1.3*

It wouldn't even let me sign up with my number keeps having me to select if its Mine or Friends # 
then sends back to beginning.

### 1/5 — Do not use cancer as marketing

*2022-02-05, version 3.1.3*

Read an inspirational article about a mom battling cancer using this app for her daughter. Checked out the website and low and behold found out what I saw wasn’t some success story but a marketing gimmick for the company. Not cool

### 1/5 — Worse App

*2022-01-11, version 3.1.1*

I have used the app and it was terrible. I recommend using other apps that are more interactive. You can’t even message users.

### 1/5 — Great idea…HORRIBLE execution

*2022-01-09, version 3.1.1*

The app is NOT user friendly. It keeps crashing and has a million bugs to it. The idea is great and could go far but the way the app is designed is worthless. NO WORTH THE DOWNLOAD

### 5/5 — Match making is my thing

*2025-11-20, version 5.3.0*

Love being able to legit make matches for my friends and ask questions of the singles and their wingman first! Brilliant

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2025-05-23, version 5.0.2*

The best dating app! I found my bf of ten years here. Thank you and thank you to my bestie for picking him 🥰

### 5/5 — 100%

*2023-12-16, version 4.0.1*

Very well set up, no fakes and found a lot of people to talk to quite quickly, highly recommend

### 5/5 — Quality over quantity

*2023-12-05, version 3.4.0*

Wingman lets your friends and family prioritize quality interactions over an overwhelming number of matches, allowing you to focus on building meaningful connections.

A bit scary having my family pick matches but so far so good I can’t complain! xx

### 5/5 — Great up with a great premise

*2023-11-17, version 3.4.0*

it’s a fantastic app that super easy to set up and understand it’s definitely one of the better dating apps out there

### 5/5 — Great for actually trying to find someone long term!

*2023-11-10, version 3.3.9*

With my mates involved they already had a good handle on my type. So from there for them I guess it was just sifting personality. It’s actually quite a smart concept seeing as your family and friends see you go through multiple relationships so they see what works and what doesn’t for you. So far I’ve met a few pretty cool people but I’ve actually now found sum1 I think is pretty special. Not what I thought but my brother went for personality over looks and I’m in a really good space with this one so fingers crossed for the future 🙏🏿

### 5/5 — Found my daughter’s perfect match!

*2023-09-26, version 3.3.7*

My daughter was always settling for less than she deserved. She reluctantly let me sign her up for this app… what can I say… your wingmom always knows best ;) Super easy to use!!!

### 5/5 — I love it!!!

*2023-09-20, version 3.3.7*

Personally, other than the concept of your friends who have probably supported you through some questionable choices having more of a say in the vetting process, I love the reassurance and safety element of someone vouching for their single friend.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2023-09-18*

This app is perfect for me- instead of asking my friends to find a single person in their network (impossible???) they can set me up with someone on the app who is already vetted by their friends. It’s a win-wing ;)

### 5/5 — Omg love this app

*2023-09-18, version 3.3.7*

I swear my sister needed this. I was finally able to help her find a date that’s actually suitable for her. This is such a neat idea and it works!
