Try the modern version of sending a message in a Bottle - a new way to meet people, have fun, and have meaningful conversations!

This is how it works:

1) You write a nice message, put it in a bottle, and throw it to the sea. Your bottle will be randomly received by someone, somewhere in the world.
2) If that person decides to keep the bottle, you have a new friend and you can start chatting with each other!
3) And if your message gets released, your bottle will float back into the sea to be received by another random stranger!

On Bottled you can:
- Send a photo, voice, or text message to someone somewhere in the world.
- Follow the journey of your Bottles in real time
- Play "Spin the Bottle" for fun questions and challenges and chat with your new friends from all over the world!

Ratings and reviews

This app is lot of fun and I met some great people but it malfunctions a lot. I have to reload multiple times to get it to work. I'm supposed to receive a treasure chest every hour but I am convinced that doesn't happen. Previously contacted them about it but they just told me I definitely get them, so I just gave up on it. Update: A few years later, there are a lot of extra features but it seems like bottled was better without all of the extra stuff. People throw out bottles but don't talk.

the app is good in heart, and I understand that. There are a lot of people who just want nudes, but it's hard to crack down without being nitpicky and violating privacy, also understandable, but there is a glitch on the otherwise great app. When I send a message, and then a follow-up, the last word of the first message tends to pop up, and I have to backspace it (This only happens if I sent two or more messages in a row to the same person). (Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime)

Pretty good. It connects with a lot of people, though it would be nice if there was a level of fluency in a language setting to get matched with others who speak the language. I seem to continually get people who speak very little english, and its not a problem but it would be helpful to have a setting. Also, the system is great, and super easy to figure out. Though group chats would be cool if there was a setting where you could send multiple bottles for the same chat. Great app other than that
