don't waste your time just another fake hookup site that tries to bleed you of every dime they can get. Bunch of fake girl profiles just wanting you to open endless nudes and never meet up in person 😒. Basically the same scripted responses with a little variation. they are just a paid content provider or a AI chat bot that are only on the site to get real people to open endless locked content. it blocks your from sending your address and phone number so you can't actually meet in person!
★★★★ David 6/3/2026 v1.0.13

★★★★ Jake Bosch 5/13/2026
totally a scam site talked with one "user" for about three weeks then all of a sudden she has a friend and she can see her friends account and you talking to them which if I remember reading correctly violates the rule it was reported and absolutely nothing done all active accounts that want to meet are all run by the development team total scam shouldn't even be in the app store
★★★★ David Wine 5/7/2026

★★★★ Christian Pedroza 4/1/2026
scam
★★★★ Alexander Nelson 3/27/2026 v1.0.13
A scam. A HUGE SCAM. They hire women in Africa and Philippines to pretend to be American, Canadian and United Kingdom, just like Linky. They take pictures and videos from social media like Instagram, Facebook, X(Twitter), and use the pictures and videos from women on those apps and use their images to project that they are those women. This is a fraudulent cash grab to get men to think they are talking to real women from those pictures and videos.
★★★★ Jerry Smith 3/27/2026 v1.0.13
Before I finished profile, I got matches. How, I had not swiped anything yet. No tags to match with. Hmm. I ignored the standard try to get you to pay messages. Then the screen got hijacked with pay for premium. I said no. It made me tap like 4 times and try to do a survey to close it out. After all that, I finally swiped. You cannot filter anything without paying. All suggestions were very skinny, young ladies in suggestive poses, covered in tattoos. You get 10 swipes before a cool down start
★★★★ fable Leon 3/23/2026
can't chat for free for very long
★★★★ Hannah Noni 3/21/2026 v1.0.13
This app has helped me expand my social circle so much. I’ve made real friends, not just online matches, and that’s something I never expected from a dating app. It’s perfect for anyone who wants to be more social.
★★★★ Austin 3/20/2026 v1.0.13
I hunt down fake dating apps and this is one of them don't trust it. don't spend your money on it save it for something else that's More important stay tuned.

★★★★ Roku 2/21/2026
One of the worst scam dating sites online. Nothing but fake profiles fake pictures of girls and nothing but computer 🖥️💻 generator Bots for you to chat with that's not even human..Avoid this site. The United States government needs to weed out shut down these websites like this one for sure.

★★★★ Craig Griffin 12/28/2025

★★★★ Andrew 12/21/2025
scam app. do not install
★★★★ Jeremie K 12/19/2025 v1.0.10
if you are a guy its not worth your time. Chat is not unlimited have to pay after awhile. Just filled with chicks or bots looks to send pic/vids and ask you to pay to unlock them. it's a cash sink, some play the long game and still ask the same and other bots chat and show the pic/vid and ask you to unlock it. They use manplitative tricks to pay want to pay so be aware!
★★★★ Xander 12/8/2025
I have discovered many issues the app. Regarding the purchases and accounts that go against the terms and services. Coming from the previous app that had notification to get this new one it follows the same issues. Do not get this app.
