About this app

We’ll spare you a long text, let’s explain in human words who we are.

To start we are a dating app like so many others. If you’re looking for hot hookups we can help. Everything you need is here for free without annoying ads.

What makes us special is our community! Most of our users are looking for quality connections, from friendships to real dates. We began as a typical garage start-up with no investors. Today we are based in liberal Amsterdam & Berlin, and we lead ROMEO with the same spirit for more than 20 years.

Thanks for reading

Every year Romeo takes more and more and more things that used to be free and started charging for everything & blocking most valuable parts of the app. It's better to look at other apps as this one is slowly becoming a joke. Very little value, it's very buggy & crashes often. Many times the site is down all while raising the price and cutting the free areas to the bone . Find any other app , they just keep raising the price & cutting it's free areas . I used to really like it, it's a joke now.

This app is going the same way as a certain other gay dating app now: You can only see people within a very limited vicinity around your position in the free version. Different from said other app, there is basically no one there in your immediate vicinity - even less many now that they are actively being driven away. Romeo does not yet have the rapid price hikes and the aggressive nsfw advertisements, but that may be just around the corner, if they want to monetize it aggressively.

Hey there, it is a company decision to ditch advertisement entirely in our App to protect our user. Just saying, privacy is a serious matter. There wont be annoying videos you have to watch to use the app. Free User have a variety of features available and others are for PLUS user exclusive. Loves, ROMEO 💙

A few years back I installed this app and had a good experience with it. Recently, I tried to install the app on my Huawei Y9 and I am unavle to get passed the screen that requires me to add a profile photo. No matter what I do I simple cannot add a photo and move forward to create a profile. I have checked the permissions several times and all are garnted. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the app multiple times, still the same issue. I will keep trying but any suggestions would be helpful
