Version 7.35.0
Hate itInappropriateSpending
Pretty much identical to grindr. Users don't read profiles, the app is used entirely for hookups and not at all for dating. Unless you pay, your profile is shown in the global section, which also means a lot of overseas scammers and creeps wanting to swap pics. People getting aggressive and insulting you (including plenty of transphobia) when you tell them you aren't interested in casual sex, pics, or long distance. The app setup is a little nicer but the experience is almost exactly the same.

The app seems to perform ok but not having a paid subscription is very limiting. If I'm interested in someone I can't view their profile to see if I'm wasting my time. I've been contacted twice today but there is no photo for the individuals. I'm not going to bother if I can't see them. Perhaps it varies by market but I'm in a major metropolitan area and the local guys using the app seem to be predominantly 45 and up. Not useful when I'm searching for 35 and younger. Probably uninstalling.

Once again the updated the functionality and made the app worse. Now sometimes when you click in someone's photo it might go full screen or not. When you want to scroll through pictures you wind up grabbing the profile info and scrolling that instead. The look got all chunky juvenile. Stop changing how things work...they worked better before. I sent in a ticket about this week's ago and they never responded.
