I enjoy using the app. However, there are several opportunities for improvement. The chats do not keep a correct history. For example if I want to look and reread a previous chat the responses are out of order and it does not allow you to view from the very beginning -- it should be in chronological order. Also, to stay relevant, adding the ability to send voice notes, additional pictures, memes, GIFs; should be added features. Using a Samsung Galaxy Note 9.

I'm being generous and giving 3 stars because the app has been good for meeting a few quality people. But I wish the app would respect filter options. As others have said, the filters are basically useless, which makes the app nothing but busy-work, so I end up not using it at all. I would rather be shown fewer people and have the option to broaden my selections. But whenever I select a certain distance or a certain denomination, it shows me everything BUT what I selected. Very frustrating.

Haven't had many issues with the app all around pretty good actually seems like legit people compared to some other apps. All that aside my current issue which is actually why I'm writing this is over the last week I get a notification saying some variation of you have missed messages and whatnot. Problem is every time I open the app to see what it's talking about there's no messages. So I don't know the issue is with that or if there's any solution to be done but itd be cool to see it change.
