Sucks
This app freaking sucks. They censor what you say and if you ask someone to talk outside of this app, it won’t let you send the message and the people I have talked to seem fake. They want you to stay on here so you have to keep paying. Stay away from the horrible app.
Can’t login
Bad customer services and when I tried enter into the app nothing was popping up and couldn’t text the people I was talking to
AI app
Lots of AI. Girls just getting to there vibe they all live north park
Bots
Very bad not teal people
Caution
This site is a money grabbing site. And after less than one week I was chatting with and AI bot I feel when I one afternoon was not able to get back in which confirmed my thoughts. Every message cost coins. I had well over 235 coins and was denied access and told my internet connection was the reason and I guarantee it was not. It blocks message if you ask others in the chat certain things it believes your trying to learn about whom your chatting with and they try to keep you chatting nonstop to cost more coins. This is not real be cautious
Garbage
I matched with someone made plans for a date, and than within 2 days the app crashed and won’t let me log back in I tried to reach out to support but because the app won’t let me login I can’t reach out to support at all
Honest opinion
Not my favorite site because you have to have coins to be able to talk to someone I think that’s a little bit of a BS but it’s your site
A weird experience
Well my app stopped working the other day and hasn’t worked since. Mostly found every person who would message me was an obvious bot.
I’ll accept the app crashing on me being the death of this Dora app.

poor app
when the app works its alright, you gets matched every now and then without having to pay for the extra stuff but then all of your messages with people and the credits that you buy just vanish out of no where and dont even bother trying to fix it by deleting and reinstalling because now you just lost everything. You app wont even let you make a new account or log into your old one to try and get back into all of your convos or even return your money for stealing all of your credits. I’ll update this review if I end up getting something back but so far their customer support is basically nonexistent and the in app help email that it gives you doesnt even exist.
Can’t even access
The app changed me three times and froze up on me directly after stating the internet connection is bad. When it is not at all
Dora
It was working but ended at a bad time
Nothing but bots
Almost all of the profiles are fake
Boooooo!
The app stopped working after 3 days now just says weak connection everywhere.. this was of course after getting every bit message they could manage trying to get me to run through credits
I want a refund
A scam
Scam
You have to pay to chat because of the coin system. They kicked me out my account, too coins, delete parts of profile. I do not recommend
Customer service sucks
No notification of the site being down. They blame it on a weak internet signal. You buy time to talk to people and you can’t because the site is down
No Pay, No Play
I started my profile a few weeks ago. This past week I finally started getting matches. When I finally go to add coins and purchase a subscription, I can’t access any of my previous messages from people I’ve matched with already. The app Made me start my profile all over, so I had to do my bio height and preferences all over again.. I don’t know if someone reported my account for being a possible fake or if I got shadow banned. I was so happy to buy coins until I saw I couldn’t access previous matches. At that moment, it literally made me have second thoughts about dating again. Damn
Can't see
Seems that i can't send messages or see messages or anything with no way to contact anyone even those i upgraded to premium very frustrating
Will kick you out and take your money
Been using Dora for almost a week till two days ago kicked me out and gives me login failed try again and can’t get back into account, can’t even create a new one.
Broken
Login broken, cant even get in to use
Seems like a bait trap
The people that you get matched with never really wanna exchange information the app does not allow you to actually exchange information unless you buy coins to talk to people for more and more money. The app I assume has officially crashed or has been turned off because it is not working.
it wont connect anymore
it wont connect and now i cant log in this app suck
Dora has been a painful experience way too mich control over dating
The system sends messages without permission granted. Messages get canceled even if your not ask for contact information, and however is anyone going to date without info? It was a terrible
Needs fixed
Won’t let me log back in and it’s not working at all I’ve tried different things to make it work and it still doesn’t
App is bug an having technical issues
App is not working, and won’t let me sing in at all , all the messages are gone and is not showing anything else.
Fake
This app is garbage. Do not use it. They use bots or paid people to keep getting you to buy credits. They also took what credits I had left that I paid for and deleted my account after I gave a poor review on Facebook.
All AI Bots
All AI Bots don’t waste your time or money. This app is a Scam.
Pecker
This site sucks how come men have to pay and woman don’t pay for coins and can’t firgure out to level up
The app keeps crashing. Don’t download until
They need to fix the app. Download it yet .
Waste of money!
You pay for premium account and you still have to buy more coins to chat with another member. That’s BS! What’s the purpose of paying for premium account and still have to buy coins to get to another person! Find another dating app, this has to be the worst rip offs.
Not good
Does not allow you to change password when forgot original one
Unstable app
I was online for a few months, and then all of a sudden, I’m unable to interact on the app.
Broken app
Screening words used and multiple glitches along with has anyone actually met anyone on this?
Junk
The ap is full of bots , double charges you on content purchases , rapes you with high costs and can’t move outside of ap. Then you can’t even log back in if you logout
Worst app in America
Do not use this app. It is all AI. It’s FAKE!!!! Stay away from it!!!
WTH
It was working just fine, and then less than 24 hours later it says it can’t connect. Yes I’ve tried rebooting my phone, uninstalling the app, and connecting to different WiFi signals. It doesn’t work anymore.
App is a con
This app is populated by AI chat bots and paid workers trying to get you in a pay to chat loop. You’ll know it when you get a match and they message immediately and just butter you right up. Stay away from this sham.
More scams and then bans
I matched with people I should have never matched with. Things were smooth, bought more stars, then all of a sudden I’ve been banned. Sad. They play with your emotions and your money, a deadly combo. Avoid this one!
Service Sucks
This app sucks and a scam
Rip off
Over priced for each text message and video call it’s cheaper to give out an app contact than use this app unfortunately they prevent you from doing that and if you criticize them like I have done they’ll glitch your app so you won’t have full access to their system and good luck on reaching support
Rip off
You have to pay to chat with coins, I am sorry, I am not spending money on a dating app for nothing.
Scam
Scam
Paid and still can't text
Paid for a whole year. After a couple of days, I can't send texts. Tech support is not working.
Experience

Had credits left and now I got none can’t see any messages the app won’t load properly
Fake app
This app is full of fake women/accounts. They all use the same terms and words. They get upset at the same things you say. I’ve left comments on the pages of people that promote this site. Now the site has blocked me and I have lots of coins left. They literally stole money from me. This site is fake. Women apparently don’t know the guys have to pay to talk to them. Do NOT spend money here it’s a waste.
Absolute joke
This is gotta be the absolute worst app for meeting someone in fact, I’m not even sure why I connected with it now that I’m looking up at what it says it says create and connect. Create share find people. but you can’t connect. In fact, you guys put on the brakes to any conversation that talks about meeting each other. I’ve paid for this premium and I’m still having to buy coins. I don’t understand this. It’s absolutely frustrating and I’ve tried to go on four dates with four different people and all of them at the last minute cancel it’s ridiculous.
These application sucks
The worst
Lost connection
I was texting friends after having to spend $20 to buy coins and the girl said she doesn’t have to pay to text but I do as a male and then on day three today I have great service and when I went on the app it say poor connection please check my connection a to try again later doesn’t even let me buy no more coins or text no one there is no customer support I’m gonna call my bank and get my money back
Super
Terrible app... It's kicking me out whenever plan for a date
