Ratings and reviews

Based on the other reviews, the app seems really good when it works. Sadly in my case, it did not work. When I created the account, it let me. But when I tried to get the code to log in it said "Error. Exception: Failed to request code." Any fixes for this? Edit: I figured it out. I checked my email and apparently you need to verify your account before you can get the code to log in.

Fix yo notifications, nobody gets any. Other than that single major flaw (and several smaller flaws,) it's actually a great way to find people nearby. Definitely designed with cons in mind too, can see people by distance, and their hometowns (if shared.) Feels a way less like tindr than I thought, great for just finding cool people to hang out with, both nearby and online

Making actual connections is almost impossible on this app, mostly because I don't have the ability to message anyone who hasn't already liked me back. There is a setting to accept messages from non-mutual-likes but most users don't seem to know it exists. What am I left with? Anxiety-inducing pressure to make my profile eye-catching, scrolling down the list of people nearby, "like" a few of them, and wait... And wait... Nothing happens here. A social app should encourage people to socialize.

What’s new

Update 2.14.1 adds many improvements to the reputation system, registration and account approval. This update is also packed with speed improvements so hopefully BARQ runs much faster now!
