How Bottled works:

- Write a message and put it in a bottle.
- Throw it into the sea and let it drift to a random person anywhere in the world.
- If they keep your bottle, you match and can start chatting.
- If they release it, your bottle sails away to someone else.

Ratings and reviews

i just started using it three days ago, and i can already say as an autist that this app really is a godsend. i had more good convos is the past 3 days than on the past 6 months. sure there are a few creeps (~20% of you're a woman), bit most people so far have been super nice. the app is a bit confusing at first, and there's lot of options you have to pay for, but the basic functionality is free and easy and even quite fun to use. i really do love it as it helps me connecting to the world :)

Unfortunately, it seems most people on this app don't actually want to interact (what the hell is the point then???). Lots of very low effort messages, bugs that don't get a response from support when reported... I think the devs are generally supportive of feedback, but in the end, it's a mostly useless app since the userbase is so disengaged. Maybe they need to market it a bit differently.

Slowly converting into a money centered app. All the developers now care about is how they can extract more money from the users. They claim that none of the existing features have been removed, but now we can't exchange bottles for Gold. I've thousands of bottles in my inventory. I would have sent them out, but guess what, the bottles reach the same users over and over. It means I can send out more bottles than the user database. No more diamonds in the daily treasure hunt. Just frustrating.
