Believe the 1 stars
App almost feels abandoned minus all the bots and fake accounts.
So forgotten about that it’s even a chore to update and edit your own profile.
I have been on TourBar for nearly 3 years. Have made 0 contacts or real interactions.
TravelGirls is a much better service and experiences.
★★★★ FailX 3/9/2024 v4.5.8
Not “free to download and use”
I don’t understand why ITunes allows this app to say “free to download and use” when you can’t do anything without first paying. No trial period, no basic function at all unless you pay. Which, I’m reluctant to do without trying it first. Deleting.
★★★★ JMR--- 1/1/2024 v4.5.8
Horrible
Repeatedly Says “you can only change your name once” if you try to add anything to your profile, including a picture or any information. Your programmers absolutely messed up. What a disaster.
★★★★ okpk23412 11/28/2023 v4.5.8
Sent 4 messages the have to pay
I sent like four messages and then it was saying I can’t text until I pay for the premium. Not worth my time or money.

Account blocked - no one to contact
Download it and set up the app… Within a day I tried to login and was given the message that my account is blocked… No reason… And there is absolutely no contact information on their website or anywhere else to find out what's going on…
★★★★ beachbumming82 3/11/2023 v4.5.7
Don’t download
My account was blocked with 2 mins. I uploaded my pics, started searching and I was blocked. No way to unblock
★★★★ dykaau2 3/8/2023 v4.5.7
Probably a scam
I wish I would have read the reviews, I uploaded my pictures and then it loved me out and I tried to log back in and it said my account was blocked. I wish I could go back in and delete my account and picture
I feel this is a scam to get peoples names and pictures and money
★★★★ Thepreacher326 2/3/2023 v4.5.6
Blocked in 15 minutes. No reason. No customer service. No refund
This is terrible. I paid and got blocked immediately. No explanation. Nothing. Such garbage.
★★★★ mtam7119 10/16/2022 v4.5.3
Account immediately blocked?
I signed up for Tourbar and within 5 minutes my account was blocked and I can’t log in. I only answered the initial setup (gender, birthday, location) and when I got past that screen, I went to notifications and my account logged out and became blocked. There’s no way to submit a customer service request unless you’re signed up which I can’t do because I can’t log in. Im not sure what the issue is but the fact that customer service is only accessible to people with accounts makes no sense to me.
★★★★ 🤪gracehunty🤪 10/7/2022 v4.5.3
Horrible five minutes experience
Literally downloaded the app just to see what it was about and if it was worth my time and it most definitely wasn’t. I uploaded one photo of myself and filled out my bio a little and literally five minutes later tried to upload another photo and it send me to the login/sign up screen and when I tried to sign back in it said my account had been blocked and I have no idea why. Worst app experience ever honestly among the other I’ve downloaded. Really wish I could log back in at least and delete my account so it isn’t still in their system but whatever, really hope this isn’t just a scheme to get peoples personal info. And whoever reads this, DO NOT DOWNLOAD.
★★★★ Fiwldiskj 9/25/2022 v4.5.3
Weird app
I am trying to figure out how they have a 4.5 star when the reviews are so bad. Made a profile lastnight and locked out for no reason today. No support, no explanation. Weird
★★★★ DaiBrown 9/1/2022 v4.5.1
Blocked
This app is beyond weird. I made a account and now I can’t log back into it and it’s telling me I’m blocked. It’s a scam.
★★★★ BjörnSkuggi 8/31/2022 v4.5.1
Terrible app that smells like a scam
I downloaded this app, updated my information, and included my photos of myself… and in less than 24 hours, without messaging a soul, or even talking to anyone, I tried to log back in to find that my account had been blocked/deleted. Initially the app was confusing and was basically just trying to get me to buy things, but now I’m wondering if this app was just a phishing scam to get personal photos and info from people. DO NOT USE THIS APP!
★★★★ Tofi.Niz 8/27/2022 v4.5.1
Poor execution - Great idea
For whatever reason the account gets blocked. I have made 3 accounts with id verification.. but account seems to get blocked on its own. Tried contacting customer support - they don’t reply to emails at all. Really disappointed
★★★★ DownLo830 8/5/2022 v4.5.0
A joke
This app is a joke. For every real person that actually responds or gets ahold of you, there’s 20 other that are not real and banned by Tourbar.. This app is supposed to have a process to join to show a picture of your identity, but I feel like this is a joke too because how would this many people get past that.
★★★★ Doug 1008 7/30/2022 v4.5.0
Doesn’t seem worth it
I was planning an international trip and looking for someone to meet who I could do things with in the city. Most of the woman in the app seem to be from Russia and looking for someone to pay for them. One woman expressed she was so happy to talk to me when all I did was say hi. Seems a little weird. What I am finding on the app does not seem to justify $30 a month
★★★★ MattGx 5/28/2022 v4.3.7
This is the worst app I have ever used.
Signed up. Tried to upload photos and set up my profile. I couldn’t upload my photos as other users have reported too, I contacted support via app. Tried to sign back in 45 minutes later. It says my account is blocked. No email or reason provided. This was a waste of time. This is also the first review I’ve ever written. Had to get my frustration out somewhere…
★★★★ Timboslice12345 4/26/2022 v4.3.7
Will not remove my profile
I have been trying to remove a fake profile someone made of me with my as it is the first thing that comes up on Google searches and is causing me to lose job opportunities. Please help.
★★★★ driver1847474 3/30/2022 v4.3.6
Terrible app
It wouldn’t allow me to upload several of my photos which were professionally taken and It kept putting my location as somewhere else. Looks like a cheap bumble rip off.
★★★★ Vassy1999 11/11/2021 v4.3.3
Awful application
Installed app today, met two individuals and tried talking to them but it wanted me to subscribe so I could continue talking to them, instead I gave them my instagram and my account got deleted / blocked, I didn’t receive any warnings prior this.
Not recommended, don’t waste your time on this application, it’s a waste of money and time.
★★★★ JWSmith1488 10/25/2021 v4.3.3
Account blocked after paying subscription
Pretty weak.i paid the $30 for subscription, next morning I went to sign in and it says "account blocked". Looked around for a way to contact them and nothing is listed.
★★★★ byvutivyn 10/19/2021 v4.3.3
This app is horrible!
This app is horrible! I went through the setup process, set up my profile and went to run an errand. Tried to sign in when I returned and received a message saying I was blocked, with no explanation. Tried to contact customer service, but you can only do so after logging in, which I’m not able to do. Looked online for other options for customer support and there are none.
★★★★ Dre565 10/18/2021 v4.3.3
Garbage
App is extremely glitchy. One minute you’re logged in and next you’re logged out and have been locked out of your account for no reason. Can’t reply to messages even when others message you first unless you pay. Seems it was developed by a C-rated developer who still needs practice creating software.
★★★★ sammiraq 7/19/2021 v4.2.0
Too many fake users
Many fake users I didn’t like it
★★★★ Vitchezz 7/6/2021 v4.2.0
Terrible
I paid for the month and I got blocked and I haven’t done anything yet. Want my money back
★★★★ Gotmoosefur 6/6/2021 v4.2.0
Money money (banned for leaving bad review)
What is the deal with every app like this requiring payment? Why can’t I message someone without having to pay for it…
I was also banned after I posted this review, so that’s what honest criticism gets you.
★★★★ oczstar 10/10/2020 v4.2.0
The worst
I signed up through Google not to long ago and now it says my account is blocked. what type of scam is this?!?
★★★★ Adams T peter 10/4/2020 v4.2.0
Can’t register
Do not download this App.can’t receive Activation code and it’s telling me that my Email is already Exit
★★★★ itzKay81 2/29/2020 v4.1.1
Not for me
Too many fakes and weird men
★★★★ 1214eye 12/1/2019 v4.1.1
This app doesn’t work
It’s a bad app nothing works here you can’t even sign in
★★★★ GoBlue in NC 11/22/2019 v4.1.1
No good
Former user. Didn’t use the app long. Lots of frauds/scammers on the app/website - far more than real genuine people. Plus the app costs a monthly fee AND was difficult to cancel. There are several free apps out there that provide the same services, some with even better services and more options.
★★★★ Reinafiip 10/11/2019 v4.1.1
Banned my account before I could even upload.
I’ve heard so many good reviews and before i could even finish uploading all of my pics and finish my profile. Banned my admin, no way to contact them as you have to be registered yet my email is blocked.
Trash. Skip this.
★★★★ Jackyblack0 2/6/2019 v3.9.1
Don’t bother - scam
A dating site with a bunch of women looking for someone to buy them an airline ticket, plus very high subscription fees, no phone support, and making it as difficult as possible to try and cancel the subscription. Stay away and avoid the headaches it will give you.
★★★★ Abomish3al 2/3/2019 v3.9.1
Don’t ever try to pay for this App
Fake profiles.
Searching inside the App. not working.
Before you subscribe you will receive messages from fake profiles just to to pull you and to pay and subscribe, then you will realize that you are alone with some people who already were cheated by this App.
★★★★ alnet1 1/21/2019 v3.9.1
Lying
The app mentions that the chat is free but after registration requests the subscription to be able to chat
★★★★ KelseyLivia 1/17/2019 v3.9.1
Can’t find my account for twice
I set up everything and the next time I logged in it said “account is restricted “,”account not exists”
★★★★ dracobb1 9/17/2018 v3.7.1
7 Day Trial
Was on a 7 day trial starting September 15 2018, cancelled my subscription on September 16 2018, after 12 hours and deleted the app was still billed for the first month. I hope I will not be billed again
★★★★ DR9191 6/10/2018 v3.6.0
Fake app....
I am trying to activate this app by text message because the app won’t allow you to text any one unless you activate your phone number or pay money as premium number. But the text message never reach my phone. The other thing is you can’t text anyone unless they like your photos??! Or you pay money as premium number! ... I don’t recommend this App for anyone ..
★★★★ Nathendaniel03 5/20/2018 v3.5.2
Not LGBTQ Friendly
Set up an account as a gay man. The only people who come up are women. Very disappointing.
Update... almost every other review asked the people to contact customer service to help with their issues. Yet mine was just given a “Thank you for your feedback”. Proof that the developers truly do not have any intention of the app working for LGBT people dislike having the option. I wish I could give less stars. I’m not usually one to write negative reviews, or push lgbt issues”, but this is flat out “disrespect to a whole segment of people.
★★★★ USA-DK 2/6/2018 v3.5.2
Bad Tinder idea
Basically, this app just like tinder just in old-scool format,- you don't get swipes, but, they charge you 30$ for 30 days.
Bottom line: this app is another version of Tinder where they want you to pay a lots of money, and take hungry, Russian woman to vacation.
★★★★ Shoniko82 1/13/2018 v3.5.1
paid for this app but can’t use it....
this application doesn’t work,can’t see pictures and to many other bugs
Nobody ever replies to my complaint
Give me my money back,please
★★★★ Hossamoos 1/7/2018 v3.5.1
LIERS
You are saying that the chat is for free!!! You’re LIERS
★★★★ Crazy Cabbage 21 12/24/2017 v3.5.1
Useless and paid service
Cannot understand for what this app... Tried to add my trip four times, but failure. Then I tried to send a message to support, but unsuccessful.
I still don’t understand for what I should pay and how this one could help me with trips?
What the service except numerous bags it provides?
Just wasted time.
★★★★ Rjbsajf4ever 12/19/2017 v3.4.1
Awful
It says you can message others if you ‘like’ each other’s photos but it doesn’t actually allow that. You must pay to chat with anyone. Plus it declined my photos just because my dog was in one with me and my nephew was in another with me.
★★★★ MustafaGoldsmith 12/2/2017 v3.4.0
Bad
The app is just really bad and slow
★★★★ Supbat 10/27/2017 v3.3.1
Don’t even bother.
Waste of time. Garbage. Way to expensive
★★★★ Jakex301 10/17/2017 v3.3.1
Fake
Garbage
★★★★ Sexy Skittle 10/8/2017 v3.3.1
5 star reviews are fake
I tried this app, because I would have prefered a female aquaintance over a male who would be expecting arm candy or a hook up
Full of bugs, my location was never correct. My account was blocked, and the only thing I did was add two trips with city names.
FYI ladies if you are using this to find a date, I can warn you that all the people who popped up when I signed in were unattractive men, many twice my age. Nothing like the advertisements
I’m also reading that you have to pay. Dont waste money here. You are better off using an app with a better platform
★★★★ Tek Savy 8/22/2017 v3.3.1
USELESS - Can't sign up
I downloaded the app, tried to signup for a new account using my email. It keeps telling me that a verification code was sent to my email address, except that nothing is received; neither in my inbox nor in my junk box!
So practically, the app is useless. I am removing it.
