★★★★ Nada Tangwongcharoen 6/29/2026 v8.7.1
I didn't recommend to pay subscription they have a lot of bug. I had experience paid for service but it doesn't work anymore. Matched quality it chaos algorithm random quite different from my settings. And I had emailed to them until now 2 -3 weeks there don't fix not any solution for solve problems. So disappointed. Regarding this application, there has been significant disappointment since 2026. It appears that updates are released daily to address bugs,
★★★★ ganesrraj arjunan 6/25/2026 v10.2.1
unlike you have a subscription, its quite pointless. feels like dead end. but your app is not accepting any type of payment as well for subscription. getting declined. updated. still the same. the help option via the app isn't helpful either.
★★★★ M.Sheriff 6/24/2026 v10.2.1
instantly blocked, haven't even set up my account yet. just got my personal details...
★★★★ Finn Gray - Higgins 6/24/2026 v10.2.1
app is garbage, pay to win, just use Hinge. Edit, make your app better, than people like me won't rate it garbage.
★★★★ r 6/21/2026 v10.2.1
such a predatory and opportunistic app
★★★★ Keisha Amponsa Banson 6/20/2026 v10.2.1
I cannot wait for my subscription to be over. Glitching whilst texting meaning I have to close & reopen the app or delete & re-download it or when I check for updates, it always shows me I don't need to install one. When I went on a break & paused the app, going to settings to stop ALL notifications from coming through, the app continued to send them TWICE a day. When I deleted the app for my mental health, they circumvented that & started emailing me instead. AI being overzealous perhaps?😏😒
★★★★ Black Black 6/19/2026 v10.2.1

★★★★ Fatima zahra Belaassir 6/18/2026
Not good
★★★★ Sean OBrien 6/18/2026
So far, I think the app has been terrible. Once again, it feels like men have to pay just to talk to women. I’ve only had one like and haven’t been able to match or connect with anyone. I can’t chat or interact properly, and it feels no different from Tinder or other dating apps where everything is limited unless you pay yet funnily enough women dont have to pay.
★★★★ pajero89 6/16/2026 v10.1.0
You can't even like someone without paying if they have received a couple of likes that day. This app is purely a money grab and is not designed for real connections
★★★★ abu ali 6/15/2026 v10.2.1
not worthy at all. even i paid subcription, there is still limit with how many people i can see everyday🤬🤬
★★★★ Su Han 6/14/2026 v10.2.1
Useless app. Not even one proper match. everything is behind a subscription paywall to even see a person's like. what's the point of downloading a dating app when you don't even show any candidates? to clarify: your suggestion of updating filters is part of the problem. your app has limited free filters and the majority are required subscription/payment. so no thank you. if you have a suggestion that does not involve payments, then please advise. tq
★★★★ Thea Dowling 6/13/2026
Was liked by one person, couldn't view them without paying. Went to swipe through people and there was literally no one in my entire city.
★★★★ Michael Tuang 6/12/2026 v10.2.1
Are you kidding me ? I have to Pay $$ to see who like me ? Mate, just get out.
★★★★ Ming Hao Goh 6/10/2026 v10.1.0
This company is unethical, keeps showing notification of a random girl liking me, but in reality did not appear in my likes section after I resubscribe the app. They only want to entice users to resubscribe the app to make money for themselves.
★★★★ bababelica 6/9/2026
user interface is really awful. a lot of matches expire accidentally because i dont get notified about new messages. i give up on this app
★★★★ Not Sure 6/8/2026
App will freeze randomly and take a while to load. Stephen swiping the maximum number of times will not get you a match unless you're willing to pay. tried this app for a few weeks and literally got the zero matches and it kept advertising premium service.
★★★★ Nikita Hugo 6/8/2026
Not a zero dollar dating app at all and when you accidentally subscribe because you are just trying to work out how you are supposed to do literally anything on the app they won't refund you. Deleted within 24 hours.
★★★★ B Bro 6/7/2026 v10.1.0
The app crops all the pictures wrong. You can get around this. It does it on its own. Now very difficult to use
★★★★ Michelle Talarico 6/7/2026 v10.1.0
matching with people outside of my deal-breakers. wasting users money on sending flowers when they are outside the parameters I've set. dating is already hard enough as it is, but you're ripping users off. BE BETTER.
★★★★ Eric Ho 6/6/2026 v6.2.0
i know why i uninstall from the first time, for women is free to use, for men it newd to pay to only can use other function Gender discrimination apps
★★★★ Iceland 6/3/2026 v10.1.0
just made account 1 hour ago and account get frozen. weird app
★★★★ Shali SK 6/1/2026 v10.1.0
I don't really like that the app is only usable with subscription. I can't even like in the app. Nope.
★★★★ D DLV 5/31/2026 v10.1.0
the worst app, it only shows you like 10 profiles before the paywall.
★★★★ Rebecca Mackinnon 5/31/2026 v10.1.0
think they just want to take your money. can't see matches until you pay and then when you become a subscriber there is suddenly no-one that replies or matches with you. had no one for my first subscription then when I let it expire I suddenly had someone like me. subscribed again and been a week with no one again. waste of money for sure.
★★★★ Dhawal Mehta 5/28/2026 v10.1.0
Update:The received likes are bugged and they disappear the next day after being received! Reported this bug but no solution so far! Such a glaring bug and they don't even fix it! App is currently unuseable and they don't bother fixing it! It caused me a lot of grief and stress due to it and they don't care! Don't use! Original:Please don't include photos of users in daily bagel notification and make them logical not catchy! Barely has users in Delhi, India.
★★★★ Indah Indie 5/28/2026 v10.1.0
Frustrating app. Every time you send a like to someone, they make you wait 24 hours before showing the next dudes… and heaven knows how long it takes for the dude I actually like to even see my like for a match. 🤣 At this point, finding love feels less like waiting for a government document to be processed. I will uninstall this app.. really frustrating.
★★★★ Kylie 5/27/2026
downloaded..can't upload photos..uninstalled
★★★★ Michael Panggabean 5/25/2026
Super buggy app. New bagels won't load up until I force closed the app and opened it. I have to do it after every single bagel. This is also not a new issue. it's been like this occasionally ever since the old layout.
★★★★ Christopher Go 5/24/2026 v10.0.0
Why is the price in the app not same as the price in google play store. discounted price doesnt reflect when you are about to pay.
★★★★ Aciel Alaa 5/24/2026
can't login to my account
★★★★ Francios Sebastian 5/22/2026
complete scammers which are the developers using unverified business whatsapp numbers ect stay away
★★★★ Ruben Godinho 5/19/2026 v10.0.0
poor doesn't work
★★★★ Eccles Tan 5/18/2026 v10.0.0
paid for premium which included priority likes. new update happened and this is suddenly removed halfway through the subscription?
★★★★ Wally Jenkins 5/18/2026
ads don't speak for themselves, this is by far the worst of all dating apps, limited by swipes no matter if it's left or right, probably 10 per day? filters don't work either, deleted account, never again
★★★★ J D 5/18/2026 v10.0.0
its all about money this dating app. even matched with someone the chat only lasted 18 hrs. need to pay to extend. do not recommend 👎
★★★★ Dan R 5/17/2026 v9.23.1
shite
★★★★ Rorhian Skall 5/13/2026 v9.23.1
can't even get verification code via sms in UK...
★★★★ Gibbon 5/12/2026
I thought the other dating apps were bad. you cant adjust your photos on here so your face gets cropped out. and there's hardly anyone on it when the search works and no one when it doesnt work. 50/50 either way. pointless app.
★★★★ The Elite Trader 5/12/2026 v9.23.1
App is laughable. Don't even bother paying for it.
★★★★ asimo estherlucy 5/10/2026 v9.23.1
The free version is useless
★★★★ jay ryan 5/9/2026 v9.23.1
Trash
★★★★ Lim Juin Han 5/9/2026
horrible user experience. subscription is not worth it. sums is 2026 dating app or just dating
★★★★ Joseph Chua 5/9/2026 v9.23.1
The messaging function doesn't work. You get to see matches but there's no point as every message you send returns as "Message failed" in red font.
★★★★ Alifia Zumar 5/7/2026 v9.23.1
its confusing
★★★★ beate friling 5/7/2026 v9.23.1
as a woman looking for women explicitly I get also presented with women looking for men plus between 15 to 30 % men, what kind of dating app is this?? with the standard pay-level you cannot see who liked you or get in contact and the number of matches is super low. Definitely not worth the money, just annoying.
★★★★★ Slowhand 6/16/2026 v10.2.1
it's a good dating app overall, I just dont like the fact that I cant see who is interested in me unless I pay for it, then what's the point for me.
★★★★★ Samuel Widjaja 6/16/2026 v10.2.1
There's something wrong with the app, I cannot edit pictures and everything freezes or glitches.
★★★★★ Kevin Chilwin 6/6/2026 v10.1.0
after update, UI improved. It looks visually better now. But it's even slower to update details. the Degrees' selection is sometimes buggy. Viewing & uploading photos became tremendously slow and it's buggy. Sometimes the update wasn't reflected.
★★★★★ B Wal 6/4/2026 v10.1.0
Full of fatties with children. If you want to find a average looking asian girl, this might be the site for you. This is not a site for overly beautiful people. Most are Asian and average looking at best. Also like other dating sites, anyone half decent has unrealistic dating expectations. Long story short, it's like every other dating app but with less choice.
