there's so much functionality locked behind 2 different paywalls and the furthest distance that you can set it to before Max is only 60 miles. there was something that seemed to happen with the results for me starting today to where absolutely nothing is showing that's less than 150 miles, even going as far as 750 miles away. I've connected with a few women on here, but I'm not sure if they just haven't been on or what after we were communicating for a bit.

Small issue. Ever since the ads for other dating apps have been popping up, shortly after I see one, I'll have to swipe past 1 account twice in a row. This hasn't had any negative consequences until today. Shortly after an ad, I liked an account, then the account repeated-- & naturally I liked it again since I thought it was a glitch. However, it turns out that they were 2 separate accounts, & I matched with someone I didn't like. Awkward. Now I have to ghost a poor guy.

Updated review from me- The app has been glitchy for me lately. I emailed the support team a few days ago about messages disappearing after a glitch that I'm prettty very sure was not because the man actually unmatched with me. No response from them yet. I've lost contact with a potentially great guy who had just said he wanted to hang out in person soon. I've tried restarting my phone, tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling. Those messages are still gone. And now today I can't even log in
