For every 4-5 profiles that I swipe left or right, I get an advert. It wasn't like this last year. This app was actually decent because I eventually got a date with someone, but now it's just unusable. 90% of the people on the app lie about their location, which was already an issue on the app when I first downloaded it, and there are so many fake profiles. And when in a rare occurance I get a match, they don't talk or start talking in a different language despite "living 5 miles away."

I used to use this app before traveling to meet some locals from the destination. But now there are really annoying ads which you have to click away from numerous times. I'd be fine if it was a 10 second ad which I only click out of once but no, you need to do it three times. You should've just kept the credits for ads function. Next time, I'm just going to pay for tinder plus to get the passport function and I'm done with this adware. Not giving these greedy scammers my money.

app works, so far minimal fake accounts. so really good job. only minus... if you're gay or trans. you're in the same group with straight girls. feels a bit weird to send a like and after that getting a random guy looking for something. hard to separate these. but just awkward, two stars off. getting guys in there
