Pretty good UX & feature set. Sadly, the scene is loaded with deceptive profiles == if you're looking to "invest in BTC", you're in the right place. I'm sure there are some great, sincere ladies here—but the signal-to-noise ratio is just tipped too strongly the wrong way. Tldr: unless you have lots of time to waste to filter all the pig butchers, it's not recommended. Too bad.

I used this app about a year or so ago and it was bad, but I wanted to give it a shot once again. I got a discount for 50% off and decided to give it another chance. Since I paid for it, I matched with at least one person a day. The only problem is that each one of them are FAKE. And they're super easy to spot, but Happn doesn't do ANYTHING to prevent them. They do not have a "verified profile" feature and let anyone register with any fake photo. Tragic! Don't waste your money like I did!

I paid for the premium service and my account got suspended suddenly. I did not even receive an email or any other form of intimation. If an account is being suspended, a reason should be provided or an investigation needs to be done at the very least. Also, the fee for premium has not been refunded even though I paid for 6 months and used less than 2 weeks. This is frustrating experience. Also, I've come across lot of fake profiles in the app.
