Ratings and reviews

When it's working like it's supposed to, it works really well--my only reason for 2 stars is it keeps signing you out, crashing, and sometimes deletes conversations temporarily (then they reappear) and occasionally will erase a message I send. Sometimes it also errors when you go back into a conversation, and it just shows a blank screen. It's just really frustrating how glitchy it is. I've tried reinstalling it multiple times. I'd change this to 5 stars if they'd fix these glitches.

So far: The only good thing here is seeing Christian singles. Upward is not good at matching your filters. Ads are force-fed to you at such a high frequency that you feel obligated to either delete the app or purchase a subscription. There is a charge for EVERYTHING. Too many fake / incomplete / unverified profiles. Other profiles mention not being able to see your likes, so you have to either "super-like" them (there's a charge for that). Might post an update if I continue using the app.

This app has a lot of room for improvement. It is aggravating when you're talking to a "match" for a few minutes, and the conversation will be going great, then the next minute. The chat and the match you're chatting with will disappear(this has happened at least four times). Then you get notifications about messages, and then there aren't any messages. Also, you can't send pictures in the chats.
