Version 7.4.1
BugsFeature RequestsInappropriateUpdatesA noun and an adjective? A stimulating montage of beards, hairy chests, scrappy fellows, muscle dads, tattooed pigs, pups and varied interests run through my head and I’m here for it. This app is my go-to for not only sex but comradery (no joke!). I’ve met so many men with similar interests without hang ups and insecure jealousy who have become good friends. I mean, with Scruff there’s plenty to go around, right? And it’s much safer than any dark alley (as much fun as they are). If you just want to chat, let’s chat. If you want to hang out, let’s hang out. If you want to indulge in some WS with three different friends on a hiking trail, so be it (dibs on the middle)! In a Post-pandemic, PrEP-era, Queer-embracing, Shame-dismantling world I’m no longer apprehensive to say to anyone, gay or straight, “I’m getting Scruffy on Scruff.” (Side note reason for 4 stars: Sometimes unread messages get marked as read. It’ll be weeks before I go back to chat and see an old response that I missed. And I wish there was a sort of bulletin board for day to day updates without having to change my profile.)

Version 7.43.0
AudioCameraConfusingFeature RequestsHate itSpendingIf Scruff prevented screenshots and video screen recording for publicly posted photos, I’d upload a face picture today. I’d also like it if there was some kind of alternative verification option (like verifying a photo in a private album) besides having to verify a publicly posted photo under the existing conditions. In the meantime, a cartoonish minority of the Scruff userbase will moralize on that subject and pretend that it’s a matter of being comfortable in your own skin. Profiles need a character limit: I recommend 1,000 characters vs. effectively unlimited space. TOS enforcement is spotty at best: I’ve asked questions on this subject and gotten underwhelming answers. There are limited blocks available to both free and paid users, a confusing outcome considering the number of users on Scruff that feel entitled to special attention. I deleted the app as a result. To the developer’s response to my review: I have already provided most of this feedback using the quiet, direct method that you recommended. This method, the public feedback method, seems to be more effective than quiet, earnest feedback. I was not provided with any acknowledgement on these subjects until right just now when your team responded on the App Store. Take good care.

Version 5.6002
InappropriateLove itI recommend this app for scruff guys and all guys of every kind. I don’t view it as a “hook up” site, and believe although the option is there, it’s also a great place to make new friends. The “venture” feature is amazing and unique for these types of apps. It allows you to search guys in any area around the entire world. If you plan on traveling, I definitely suggest utilizing this feature to meet guys online before you arrive. This enables you to meet potential date, no matter what intent, and allows you to learn about the good spots friendly to our sexuality! I did this when traveling several times, and all I can say is I was very happy and fortunate to have this app. I believe you can get a free trial before upgrading to “Pro”, which will allow you to familiarize yourself with Scruff, and realize why upgrading is not only the best route, but is fair in features and price. Try it out! It’s undoubtedly the best tool out there for meeting new guys. I’d just like to add (because it’s happened to all of us), men on here are way more friendly and courteous. They try to constantly out-do themselves, and will even ask for your opinion or suggestions on any potential changes, but it’s unlikely as this app provides just about everything! Xoxo
