Yubo : Make new friends for Negative User Reviews

App has no understanding of moderatiknPlease tell me why as a 26 year old I’m being told “Im too young or too old” to join a live with over 20 people in it? It’s even happened in a 60+ person live!! YUBO NEEDS TO FIX THEIR AGE GAP FILTER - YOU CANT FRIEND REQUEST PEOPLE UNDER 18 IF YOURE OVER 18 SO WHY IS THERE LIVE RESTRICTIONS BASED ON AGE? FIX YOUR FILTER! Also, the nudity detector is GARBAGE too.. if a woman with a flat chest comes on camera in a crop top or bra nothing will happen but if she has boobs she’ll receive tonnes of warnings about nudity because the filter only knows to pick up cleavage/boob shape, not actual nudity. Also, people with light coloured nipples regularly get away with being topless because the detector cant see their nipples😂😂 Its hard to believe, after reading Yubo’s Wiki, that theyve had millions of dollars invested in them.. this app is pathetic when it comes to its configurations and the only good thing about it is meeting people the same age as you without having to swipe dating apps like Tinder..Version: 4.23.0

Good app, but...I think you guys should include a option for the swipe, that allows you to see people from your specific province or city, rather than just country.Version: 3.22.1

It keeps asking for verificationSo I had this app for about 6 months- and to be honest I could find no fault. I understood the cool-downs it has and the paid items- it needs money to survive and I will gladly pay to get extra boosts and all. However this last two months it has not let me into my account and keeps asking me to use another app called Yoti to verify my account. This app asks for your driving license or passport details and is not at all a safe application. I tried deleting my account and creating a new one but lo and behold- I need to verify my account before I have even used it?! My friends do not have this problem and I have tried multiple times to create and delete accounts just to get back on. I even tried sending multiple emails to the Yubo website to tell them Yoti doesn’t work- because it actually doesn’t- and that I am not a robot. It is one of the stupidest things I have come across and I cannot access the app now. Yubo, could you just stop doing this Yoti thing because many people are stuck out if their accounts and forced into an unsafe website that steals details. Please fix this ASAP. Thank you.Version: 3.51.8

Yubo makes stupid changeNow I can’t find people near me since it cost me money to swipe in my own country now so stupid deleting app and it’s getting 1 star stupid change you guys are idiots!!!.Version: 4.11.10

LOCATIONOverall I like the app, I think it’s way better than the alternate options, very interactive. I have 2 main problems though. The first one being not seeing people who add you. I understand paying to see who’s viewing you or having to pay to see maybe half of who adds you, but since I’ve had the app around 80 people have added me and I’ve only been able to see probsbly around 10 of them. And if you want to see them, you have to use 70 coins, which is frustrating because if you don’t want to pay it takes a while to get even that much. My other main problem is not having a good filtering system. If I’m making friends or finding someone I might want to get in a relationship with, I would much prefer to find people in my state. That being said, the filter provides you with being able to see people from your country or seeing people from your country first and gives you a mile amount, and neither of these options help. I put a maximum of 60 miles and the only people that show up are people from the west coast and the uk. Doesn’t make sense to not have a better location filter, I want to make close friends near me. Other than that, I like the app.Version: 4.22.1

Bugs needs a fix & App gone down hillYou need to fix the bugs in this app. I cannot view nobody profile or anything loading properly. The swipe stacks ain’t loading either please do fix. It would be nice if we could change the colour of yubo like themes for free of charge and get rid of the ads we don’t need them and why do we have to pay for yubo premium to get the good stuff totally bullsh**** just get rid of that feature and for the swipe stacks get more features for that so it would be helpful to find what we are interested in. Then you got weirdo adding me asking for nudes like hell to the no. Then keep getting random adds in the add section 100+ how do they find my profile just like that tf ? This app has gone down hill big time & can we make a new logo and brand name. As the name yubo sounds stupid as hell. Change the colour of the app icon to... and PLEASE GET RID OF THEM STUPID ANNOYING ADS!!! they are pointless it ruins the whole app its self..Version: 3.36

ShitFull of racism..Version: 3.47.4

SwipingPlz bring back swipe right yes swipe left no.Version: 2.46

Wow. Y’all really got desperate.I’ve been using this app for years now, and I loved the fact that you can pick which gender, age, and location. It was nice to find the exact type of people you want to meet, NOW THEY MADE IT FOR MONEY?!?!?!? Geez money hungry. I will be uninstalling the app right now..Version: 4.11.10

Great to make friends but we careful(This app does make you pay for premium things which is ridiculous as it’s used for making friends, why should you pay to make friends??) So I downloaded this as an attempt to make friends and sure enough I made friends, but there are for sure weird people on this app who treat it like a dating app. It’s fine if ur talking to someone as friends and slowly catch feelings but straight out using it as an intent to start dating is not so okay. There are dangerous people on this app who just want inappropriate things but it’s good if you’re smart and careful about who you make friends with.Version: 3.46.0

Blocks account for invalid reasonsThough I had a good experience on yubo and have met many nice people and been on friendly lives, yubo at many points decided to remove my photos. I changed them many times knowing nothing is wrong and now my account has been disabled/locked. I don’t understand why it has happened and know that my photos were suitable to be put up. Following this, I think yubo has strategies in place so if this happens you can verify to have your account back by using other apps such as yoti. I think one improvement is that yubo should allow accounts to be unblocked if the user has a strong claim that nothing is false instead of verifying which many people may not want and has lead them to create new accounts on the app..Version: 3.47.5

New Live Page LayoutI’ve had yubo for almost 7 years and have enjoyed most of the updates, but this new layout of the live few page is by far the worst idea that has been thought of by your app designers. Not only do you have to scroll forever because the pictures of the lives take up the whole screen, but you can’t even filter out the countries anymore and now there’s no way of just being able to watch lives from your country or change. It’s really frustrating for everyone who is used to the app and it needs to be changed back as it’s going to cause lots of people confusion and to stop using the app. Please fix this 🙏🏼😩😩😩😩.Version: 4.11.32

It’s fine but infuriatingThe app is good in the way that you get to swipe through profiles and meet new people and it’s very diverse however every time you first open the app and go to swipe through profiles it comes up with the demonstration of what way to swipe if you like them vs if you don’t. This demonstration keeps going and going so for that first person you can’t tap through the pictures or see their bio which is infuriating. Also needing to pay to see who swiped on you is dumb, and for the people who really want to see there should be an option where you exclusively can purchase that “power up” instead of all five that fewer people want. Maybe if there was three free unlocks each day like a sort of rewards system for logging on people would like the app better because many bios express how people should just add them on Snapchat and talk there because they don’t have the money to spend.Version: 3.47.3

Paying to see who swiped?Gotta say the old version was better. Seems like a new low to have to pay in order to see who swiped🤷🏽‍♀️.Version: 3.33.2

Keeps locking out. Requires ID to unlockI had yubo for about a month, then out of nowhere my account got locked. It said to unlock with another app called yoti. I got yoti and scanned my face. I then clicked the button to verify so I could unlock and it said I had to take a picture of either my passport, driving licence or citizencard. I only have a passport but I feel incredibly uncomfortable with the idea of them having my passport information. Even if yubo is trustworthy (which at this point I doubt due to them seeming to want a lot of ur info) then it isn’t rlly that safe to just put ur personal information on an app like this incase of data breaches. I deleted my account and made a new one, but then a day later the same happened. I repeated this again and again with each time getting less time on the app. I tried deleting the app and redownloading , no change. I tried using a different phone number, no change. Yubo is a decent app if you just look at its content. But it’s practice of forcing people to give personal information (and forcing people to have their face) totally ruins the app. I would not recommend. In fact I intend to warn against the app until their practices change. Also as a result of this dumb id rule I am not able to contact people I considered friends, and am limited to joining lives by my friend calling me on discord on a separate device. Would no recommend, do not download..Version: 4.0.0

VerifyI now have to verify my identity and i am now worried I can’t to live with my friends. Yubo had no reason to change as some of the people who keep getting yoti go on camera all the time. People shouldn’t report anybody until the yubo team has 100% checked out that profile who’s been reported and make sure they have/haven’t done what they got reported for. You also say you don’t tolerate bullying and hateful speech but you bank the people who get bullied instead of the Billy’s getting banned. I would like the yubo team members to really sit down as a team and discuss this properly as this is a world known popular app. Instead of bots watching the lives Aubrey a yubo team member should come in and be noticed by all of us instead of ghosting about the situation because then maybe people will actually stop what they are doing and think about it next time. The app needs to tell us who’s banned who, and when we put nudity on our profiles that’s by the correct age it should be okay..Version: 4.0.7

Got my heart broken on hereI got my heart broken by a 14 year old 😀 was not very cash money hurted a lot.Version: 4.0.10

Getting worse instead of better :/So i’ve had this app since around 2017 now and it’s generally been quite a good app, only deleted it once or twice but obviously gotten it back both times. but i can see money and payments becoming a big thing now and it’s completely ruining the experience. at the end of the day i get that the whole point of having to pay for a better experience is for the app to gain more money but this app has always been targeted mainly towards teenagers so it just doesn’t make sense. i get having payment things on an mainly adult targeted app because they have jobs etc so it makes sense but this is an app targeted to people that are around high school/college age so it just ruins it having to pay for even swiping now if you want to not have to wait because i don’t know many teenagers who a willing to spent £10 p/m just to get something that rarely gets you any actual friends etc anyway. i’m considering even deleting the app for this reason because it’s starting to become more and more useless to me because of all the things you have to pay for. can’t we just have the old yubo/yellow back?.Version: 3.42.5

Not fun anymoreWhat’s with the limited number of swipes now? It’s really dumb, probably gonna delete the app unless it’s changed.Version: 3.19.1

VERIFICATION TEXTI downloaded this app 4 times and it’s because I didn’t get text verification to even test the app out. In order to enter the app you have to have a text verification sent to your phone. In this case I didn’t have that I didn’t get a text verification. Instead, I got nothing and I was left with nothing and I wasn’t able to even test the waters with the app the first two times I downloaded it. I thought it was something wrong with my phone until I had it sent it to other devices after having it sent to two other devices I deleted the app since it didn’t work I didn’t try to download the app on my computer which I didn’t work on there either. I looked it up on Google. They said it may be something wrong with the version of the app or my phone. There’s nothing wrong with my phone by the way. So I downloaded the last two times and I thought it was a bug so after downloading it the last time it was an updated version history. I checked it and it was updated a week ago I’m downloading it again to test the atleast so I thought. There’s still a bug in the app..Version: 4.11.83

Racism - Zero MonitoringDownloaded the app and created an account today. I was only on it for about 5 hours total. The app has a lot of pay walls and isn’t the most fun to navigate. I was exploring around the app, trying the features I had access to, and came across the “live” page where people were on lives/streams chatting. There were 2 “boosted” lives with like 20 people in each. I joined one quietly. The moment I joined one person said “Serena Williams, we got a Serena Williams” which I didn’t think much of. I then noticed that the live only had Caucasian people on video, and the people just in the live watching were all Caucasian as well, I was the only POC there. Then right after the Serena Williams comments, the same person said “I’m not a cotton picker, you’re a cotton picker!” And that’s when I realized he was calling ME Serena Williams and a cotton picker. I left immediately, deleted my account and deleted the app. The app claims to have a “safe community” and there were many notifications that it’s a kind place to hang out at. And yet one of the TWO BOOSTED lives on the app, had people be openly racist without any shame the instant a black person joins. I didn’t even have a chance to say or do anythig. This isn’t the type of place that is welcoming and must not being holding users accountable if they feel comfortable being openly racist on this app. Do better. If you’re a BIPOC, beware and spend your time in spaces that won’t treat you like less than human..Version: 4.14.4

BannedI broke my phone so I couldn’t use it for awhile. After I got a new one I went into Yubo and then i was banned. I don’t know why but now I can’t make another account..Version: 3.38.4

Frustrating afThe app it self was great, fun even until all of a sudden it decided to report me for such an invalid reason. It said my profile and/or account was inappropriate and showed signs of other people in my photos that were not myself, which i had neither showed or said in my account and profile. I deleted the app and redownloaded it numerous of times, hoping it would fix the problem. I then deleted my account in hopes of being able to make a new one. But with no such luck it was the same thing. It also has a problem wth uploaded pictures to your profile and after waiting 14 minutes i gave up..Version: 2.67

This app can be a drug in a really bad way for some peopleSometimes people can get confused of making friends and making girlfriends. This app is designed for friends. However horny scums on here just ruin the app. This community can also be extremely toxic and people can easily offend u. If ur soft or insecure please don’t use this app. This app is becoming like some sort of beauty competition where if ur good looking u get more adds rather than if ur not. However, I can’t even think of good sides. There’s only one. You can find good people. But it’s rare. That’s what makes the app bad. Also, u must have no life paying money of an app to make friends. Ur literally spending money to make friends tf. Thank u have a good day. Do something better with ur life rather than being in this hell.Version: 4.3.3

Really??I enjoy talking to people bc i have bad social anxiety, i randomly got this notification that i had been locked out of my account for security reasons and i had to send in my ID and wait at least 24 hours to be verified (ps i don’t look underaged at all) i’m not sure if this is bc people are reporting me saying i’m fake or something but even apps like tinder and bumble’s verification which u HAVE to be 18+ don’t make u show ur ID and video urself to make sure that ur a real person??? i also have my instagram in my bio in everything i have that’s similar to this app since a lot of people think i’m not a real person which is fair but again as i said, even dating apps don’t lock ur account before verification of ur appearance. i can however change my profile but cannot talk or see other people until this dumb app tells me that i’m in fact a real human being. if they really think ur not human why don’t they put one of those simple puzzles that u have to confirm ur human... it’s really disappointing. also the payment is god awful, this isn’t a dating app even tho some might think that so why is there a WEEKLY fee for seeing who liked ur profile?? i’m pretty sure tinder (which is the number 1 dating app is less money that that and u have more freedom) anyways hopefully they unlock my account since i was talking to quite a few people before completely ghosting them unintentionally do better thanks.Version: 4.0.8

Umm...I can’t swipe like the button go swiping doesn’t even show up.Version: 2.46

DisappointedI’m very sad that u took away swiping it made the app so much better now all u have is lives pretty disappointed about this.Version: 2.46

Developers $$ hungryUsed to love this app cos you could easily just make some friends and get new people to talk to and new people to snap. It’s very slow if you swipe so I used to use the add 500 people witch was 1,300 token witch is about $10 not bad. Now it’s almost 3000 tokens with is over $30 to do the same thing and half of the apps features are unusable without buying a weekly subscription. As someone who is verified and been using the app for almost 5 years I’m very sad that it’s come to such a scam..Version: 4.11.7

Told me I wasn’t my age and asked for drivers licenseI get that it’s trying to keep the demographic young. I’m 29. The photo thing told me I wasn’t my age. What is that even based off? Do I look to old for 29? Too young? Then blocking me and asked for government issued ID. I barely trust this app and it’s asking for very personal documents. Honestly, terrible experience..Version: 4.12.18

Made it awfulHey I’ve used this app for 2 years and when they made you have to spend coins meaning every request requires a ad to even talk to someone or spend real money for the slight chance they respond this app is awful now I suggest you don’t download it even spending money doesn’t get you the value it should.Version: 4.11.49

New Update.I hope the yubo team knows how badly they messed up with the new update. Hiding things behind a pay wall is never good, certainly when it comes to putting an age range. Having a pay wall infront of setting a gender, age and country is extremely bad, people on this app are more likely looking for people in their own country to talk to rather than people from across the world, and putting an age behind a pay wall is horrible. It allows 13 year olds to talk to 18 year olds, I understand it’s not illegal for them to talk but it’s still something that shouldn’t be allowed, no 13 year old should be talking to an 18 year old that they don’t know in person 1. it’s extremely dangerous and 2. it’s just wrong. The app was good and ive actually meet some cool people on here but the new update ruins it all, i’m not longer able to see people from my country and it really messes that the whole app up because that was a main reason to actually getting it. I hope you somehow remove this feature because it quite certainly could be putting younger kids in danger and takes a lot of enjoyment out of the app..Version: 4.11.10

Pay for friendship!I've been using this app for a few days and it's a pretty decent and solid concept. It would honestly be such a fun and cool app if the in-app purchases weren't so stupid. The app has a swiping function where you can swipe around multiple accounts, see their interests and you can add then, or choose to pass, kinda like tinder. The funny thing is, you can't see who added you as their friend! Spotlight could be another useful way to make new friends, randomly appear on other people's feed, if they share similar interests, you can add them. These are great concepts for starting friendships, but it costs 6.99 a week. No i did not stutter. Most of this app's users are teenagers and it's pretty absurd you'd want them to dish out 7 dollars a week just for an app that isn't even guaranteed to life long friendships. 7 dollars a month would be more reasonable than a week. Swiping and spotlights should be included for free in the app anyways! I understand that they need to make money, but joining lives and video calling isn't for everyone, including myself. Good app, but executed poorly. Has a lot of potential, but the free version of this app is practically useless. I'm probably going to hop on another app :(.Version: 3.51.8

Turning into a cash grabUsed to be a really good app cause you could swipe a few hundred people a day plus add an extra 200 people a day with the tags option but now you have to either login everyday to collect a reward which ultimately makes them more money + you have to use the tokens you collect to add the extra people from the tags section, or you can buy the tokens which is what they’re going for. They wanna profit off of desperate lonley people. The change honestly needs to be reverted cause I’ve met a lot of awesome people on here and it’s annoying what the app is turning into.Version: 4.11.48

BannedLmk if u know an app like what Yubo used to b like it’s not letting me make an account got banned and won’t let me use it unless I send in my legal documents.Version: 3.54.2

What’s not being talked about.The verification on the app is an absolute joke. I would say statistically speaking, about 80-90% of the people I “friended” on this maps are either fake profiles, promoting their other social media platforms or outright their only fans. Why? Because the app is an absolute joke as a whole. The whole idea of making friends quickly sounds like the best idea for lonely impressionable teens to young adults. But when you cannot simply implement a better verification of identity, you end up with an app full of fake “noise”. So don’t get your hopes up if you think you’re going to make heaps of friends on this app. And yes I was a victim of this atrocious app. Talked to a seemingly nice individual for 3 days. Soon got my hopes up (thought my awkward self finally made a friend) and planned to meet that individual. That’s when they decided to break their facade and send me an actual picture of themselves. Let’s just say my hopes for this app, completely shattered..Version: 4.5.1

CityThey’re should be a button where it’s your city only but other wise good app!.Version: 3.33.2

Yubo 2020Well where can I start from when you make an account it’s normal putting pictures up writing your bio and stuff then when you swipe some people come to make friends others date don’t really think it’s a dating app but the most annoying thing about it that when someone adds you can’t see as it’s blocked you have to post your yubo on your personal Snapchat or buy a membership and I think that’s wrong/scummy spotlights are okay but there are a lot of fake accounts on yubo even if you report the account no action is taken you also get a lot of people who message you saying hey on spotlight or message and don’t reply after you reply back feel like there should be something put in place to stop that (update) I deleted the app and redownloaded it to see if anything’s changed saying people added you so the app try’s to get money out of you or post on your own Snapchat absolutely shameful and putting prices up on spotlights shameful.Version: 4.0.2

Needs a lot of work.One of the main problems I’ve noticed is the swiping algorithm once you turn 18+. They do Not want your profile to pop up at all, or rarely. When I was under 18 I’d get a lot of matches, then the day I turn 18 I little to no matches. The only way for your profile to pop is is literally if you buy boost, which in itself is pretty expensive for 5. I’d get 30-40 matches in 30 minutes. But the problem itself isn’t this only. So let’s say you buy the boost package for 5, you want to start swiping as much as possible, right? Wrong. 10 minutes in and it’ll say you now need to put another 10 bucks for the “power package” in order to be able to keep swiping. The app is trying to drag every penny out of you. Why not just run ads instead? Sure you can have premium features to buy, but please invest more time in these features. The limited amount of swipes is pretty ridiculous because if you just choose to buy the boost itself it’s worthless. And this app clearly wants to segregate you based on age and your forced to by the boost of you want to make friends and get matches..Version: 3.42.5

Glitchy and weirdIt’s usually been fine in the past but like now I can’t see long messages and it’s actually annoying so like yeah try fix that one please.Version: 3.5.1

Verification BluesI know everyone is going through the same issue. The verification process. The makers of this app are starting to prompt all its users to verify themselves on a sketchy third party app that not only takes your ID, but also tracks your movement, your phone movement, how you unlock your phone with fingerprint and etc. (Learned this reading on the Yoti website.) I absolutely resent any type of thing like this on my phone!!! Why would anyone ever want to download something that has that much control?!! Why is it that necessary for folks to verify their identity? Instagram doesn’t do this, Twitter & Facebook doesn’t. Why does this??? Also I’ve seen verified catfishes!! All you have to do is have your profile set up properly and with your face and all and submit proper documentation and once you’re verified you changed the pics to something random. I’ve seen verified barack obama’s on this app. You guys are going to lose a lot of members because of this. You should take this verification feature away because it’s very flawed and it’s totally unnecessary and unsafe and i’m going to contact the App Store about this because there’s a lot of children that uses this app, No one should be prompted and obligated to provide detrimental personal information. All in all, Great app & concept, Terrible Dev Team..Version: 3.40.2

Don’t download yuboOnly had the account for 20 minutes and oh quess what I got locked out my account and needed to show photo ID. This app is bloody ridiculous now. I’m reporting this app to playstore and applestore. Why can’t yubo verify people differently like what some apps do for god sake. We verify when we want to not when were told too and if the app I go on you verify when you want to like take a couple of selfies wait 10 mins bang your verified but yubo don’t do that don’t they. They like to bully people by kicking people out and locking us out. I will use another app. Yubo you are getting pathetic now with this locking people out. I will be coming back until this locking People out stops. My mum set this account up for me as well and then got locked out and my mum as hit the roof she said it’s discusting the way yubo treat People. 2 emails will be sent to report yubo because this app is unfair and the way they mistreat us so grow up yubo..Version: 4.5.0

Age problems !So I’ve been a part of the yubo community back when it was considered yellow and I’ve always liked being able to go on the app and pass time but suddenly I’m now getting an error about my age? I’m a paying user for yubo so it’s really such an inconvenience not being able to use my account with the intended membership I’ve paid for (which I’ll tell you aren’t cheap either). I’ve tried contacting yubo for their help and it’s genuinely frustrating as the responses have been so slow, I have yet to get a response back. The app itself directs me to download Yoti and I have to which I find out that I still can’t even verify my age on there. The app sorta contradicts itself as you need to verify that you’re not over 18 trying to use the app for a younger community but doesn’t take into consideration that 1) if I’m truly underaged, why would I have a drivers license ? That immediately crosses off 1 of the 3 options. 2) if I’ve never traveled beforehand, I really wouldn’t have a passport at ALL to use to verify my age so that crosses off my 2nd option. 3) lastly my only hopeful option is the state ID to which I still don’t have. I’ve yet to get one for myself and more than likely most of the community on yubo under 18 wouldn’t have theirs yet either considering it’s not in their control whether they could get one or not due to parents. There’s a lot of flaws to this system and it’d be appreciated if this could be fixed ASAP.Version: 3.31.1

Swiping functionI understand that apps and such need money in order to stay afloat, but this is ridiculous. You expect teenagers to pay 7 dollars a week just to try and make friends that are not even guaranteed to be life-long or even last longer than a month. If you want your app to be popular and actually user friendly, then take away the payment portion of the app so we can actually see who added us as a friend. For the people who might read this comment, yeah, you have to pay in order to see who added you as a friend. Sure, you can send the link to friends and you can reveal who added you based on the number of people who opened the link, but that’s not only embarrassing but also frustrating. Again, if you want your app to actually be functional and well liked, then take away that payment option. If you’re so desperate for money, use advertisements in between swipes or when you’re scrolling through the recommended friends list..Version: 3.51.12

Locked out of my account foreverI attempted to verify my account via a school ID card since it was the only form of verification that I had. When I did so, it said that my “grade didn’t match my age”, which never made sense because it most certainly did. I tried it again, didn’t work. A third time, it didn’t work but then came a surprise…I WAS LOCKED OUT OF MY ACCOUNT! So, naturally I try and contact support and all I could find were forums, but I really wanted to talk with some support agent directly. A few months later, I try and log in again and I’m STILL locked, so of course I try and make a new account. Now, when you make a new account you’re required to verify the account with a phone number, which I tried to do but it won’t let me since it’s connected to the LOCKED account. Then an option popped up that said “would you like to log in with your phone number?” So I did. Then I log in and I was able to use the app for a few minutes when I got locked out AGAIN! I can’t create a new account, this app is unusable to me now. Horrible service and horrible technology used on this..Version: 4.6.3

Good but you can’t see who’s added you without payingThe concept of Yubo is very good, you can make new friends and you have the opportunity to choose who you request. You can message people on the app and you can watch live videos like on Instagram. However, there is a major problem which really sets Yubo back. This problem is that you have to pay or promote the app in order to see who’s added you. In all the other apps I’ve downloaded with the same concept you can see this for free and I believe that it’s a fundamental right for someone to have using the app for the app to be a good app. An additional problem is that for people who don’t have money to spend on this app, you can only get to see one person who’s added you if one of your friends on Snapchat opens the promotional link you send them. Who is going to open the link? Nobody will open the link. Most people you send the link to will skip it and move on, nobody’s going to open the link. There are so many swiping apps out there and amongst all of them, one that doesn’t let you see who wants to be your friend for free just doesn’t do it for me..Version: 3.47.4

Locked me out of my accountApp was great until I was locked out saying it was time to get verified, I had no way to get out of the window and the only options of verifying were through showing a picture of a passport, citizencard or national identification card, of which I own none. I emailed yubo and received a dismissive response simply telling me that although it can be a tedious process everyone has to verify, completely ignoring the point of my email being I had no way to verify my account. Even if I did own one of the identifications needed, I would not feel comfortable putting it into an app such as this, as it seems completely unsafe and unsecured. I am appalled by the standard of customer service and do not recommend anyone download this app..Version: 4.11.86

Plz no payI do not like how you have to basically pay to make friends like... and also the link sending thing doesn’t even work and now i have all these people that added me and i can’t even add them back and be friends with them.Version: 3.47.1

Shocking!My account was reported but someone when I never broke the rules shocking how other people get away with topless pics and I cant have a pic of my dog. Cant count the amount of accounts that ask for (lets just say) pictures of ... underage people on here aswell, when asked are you looking for male or felmale friends I went for both and yet 99% of my options are men my boyfriend also went for both and 99% of his options are female. Feel like because of your gender they are purposely sending you options of the opposite gender this is not a dating app and its being treated like one that being said the whole gender thing does widen options for bisexuals ect. If your account is reported it take weeks for them to reveiw it and dont tell you what rule is broke to fix it.Version: 3.29

CoinsCan they remove that stupid feature where u need coins to see who adds u.. it makes no sense, might as well delete the app.Version: 4.11.47

App goes from Great to terribleBack then the app used to be free and FUN now all of a sudden they’re charging you for everything if you want to swipe on a specific gender age range and distance so if you a girl and you want to swipe on only guys girls are going to show up on the swipe and guys if you want to swipe on girls only guys are going to show upIf you want to choose your swipe option you will need to pay for it back then this used to be for free also when you’re live if you title the live something they don’t like they’re going to make you rename the live again and you can’t do certain things on live anymore like how are used to be back then it used to have more freedom and now I feel like a parent is watching me The app needs to go back to its old ways how are used to be fun to use for hours nowadays you can’t even be on the app for an hour without it getting boring I feel like this app only cares about trying to make money that’s why this app is going to go out of business if they keep caring about money money money yes you can charge for some things but not everything make the swipe option free and make the lives more for adults.Version: 4.11.10

Account lockedAfter being active for a week on yubo (meaning joining lives/going live) I've had my account locked and was told to verify and after almost 24hrs of waiting for my account to be unlocked i had finally been verified. That was 5 days ago , tonight Friday 12th of February i went to join a friends live and had gotten a notification informing me i need to be verified!!!! i checked my profile and had seen that my profile had the verify tick removed and was again locked 😴 at this point im gonna delete the app because theres no point in me having an account and always verifying when I've already been verified 😡🤬.Version: 3.55.4

Unfortunate flawsThis app isn’t bad. In no way is it a bad app. But the fact that every time I tried to make a bio it was removed for being “inappropriate” is bizarre. Nothing I ever put in my bio was inappropriate. I tried to express the fact that I only wanted FRIENDS. (Which mind you is literally what this app is MADE FOR??) I wanted to express the fact I am indeed married and that i would prefer if people didn’t hit on me. I don’t use the app very much and I’m a little more active on Snapchat so I put that there as well to allow people to ACTUALLY be able to talk to me. It’s very sad that I’ve seen people with practically nude and pornographic pictures as their pfps but my bio wasn’t appropriate. I tried to even reword it multiple times! I also tried to express that I am 20 years old due to the fact that even after changing my age preferences I still came across people that were like 16 and 17 :/ Regardless, it’s a good app but when it comes to making FRIENDS. It’s not it. People treat this app like they would Tinder or Bumble and that’s just not really what this app was meant for?? I ended up just deleting my account so I can find something else..Version: 4.12.0

It’s alright, but..They need to include the persons age BEFORE we swipe, and let us actually narrow down our preferred ages more. As a 17 year old, I do NOT want 15 year olds on my account, but they’ll hide their age with a long name and pretend they’re older than they are. They also need more ID checks, or some proof of age, as I’ve had 20-30 year olds pretending to be my age or younger to try get nudes, and a lot of my friends have experienced similar problems. Yubo needs to change how they suggest people, or make people go through checks, as if I set my preferences to “Girls only”, I’ll get so many guys who are just trying to “get with a lesbian”. And suggest people closer to where we live, its cool getting people from across the country, but they’re basically the only people anyone gets. Yubo is an amazing app for pedos and predators, as well as people who like to harass others for nudes..Version: 3.51.8

Fix subscriptionYou guys seriously need to fix the subscriptions. I have purchased the yubo subscriptions so many times and it has taken money out of my account without giving the the desired subscription, i have then had to contact apple on separate occasions to get my refund. You charged me $60 for a $26 subscription a couple months ago and now i pay $26 then it doesn’t work, then i try again and it works but the new subscription decides to show up and i try and purchase that and then the $26 subscription comes out of my account. This needs to be fixed. cheers Hayden.Version: 4.11.28

Terrible AppThis is a terrible app. The people are mean, you have to pay to use the full extent of the swiping feature, and I don’t know if this app is for teenagers or adults. I’m 16 and expected there to be people 14-17 on there, but that’s only a small minority. There’s a lottt of people 17+ on the app, which makes no sense because on the swiping feature it has an age adjuster that says 13-17. Also the only way you can make friends if you don’t pay is joining live video calls. This wouldn’t be that bad if everyone on the calls were rude or mean or banning people for no reason. I also find it hard to join calls because whenever people see me they think I’m 12, so then I explain to them I’m 16 and even that’s too young for them and I get banned from the call. This has happened to me many of times which makes me wonder if this is an app for teenagers or young adults. I do find a small amount of girls and guys my age, but they usually look older for their age so they probably don’t get questioned. It also really saddening when people on a call roast you or ban you because of what you look like or your age or race or simply from what country you’re from. It would be better if you could adjust the age preference for live streams that you can join, but you can only adjust the region. Overall this app is toxic, highly addictive, and I regret ever downloading it. And I only experienced all of this stuff in ONE day..Version: 3.54.4

This app is really badAnd i know that i’m already off to a bad start, but you have to pay for virtually everything and you can’t even see who added you unless you either send the link to someone and they download the app (which no one did) or you pay about £5 to be able to have friends!? it’s frankly quite annoying that you can’t even add people who have the same tags as you, and most of the time it will suggest people who have entirely different tastes in everything to you which is a total and absolute joke. i personally like artists like clairo and still woozy, yet it was recommending me people who liked nicki minaj and my chemical romance. get any more distant from my music taste. this app is overall an absolutely great concept, but just executed in the poorest of manners. the reason why i installed this app was to find people who have similar tastes in lots of things to me, and it just is the complete opposite unless i pay or send a link to someone? the only reason why i’m even giving it two stars is because i thought the concept was absolutely great..Version: 3.49.2

Good but…This app is good overall. It meets the description, yet..I find it weird how my pictures I have uploaded have become blurry even though the authentic picture isn’t. I add the same media 10 times to just make it look clear but it never ends up being clear. Please return pictures to the way use to be before! Or better yet, come out with an update that fixes pictures that make it doesn’t look blurry..Version: 4.8.10

PremiumAfter years of having the option to choose how old you want to see people to swipe on and choose if you want world wide they made it premium now, so if you want to find people in your country have fun swiping for hours now and seeing old people. Not happy deleting the app now.Version: 4.11.10

Fix Age SectionSo I’ve recently turned 18 which now automatically puts me on the adult section. But I keep getting requests from older guys, which is starting to make me feel uncomfortable. These older guys look like they’re in their mid-20s and are faking their age. I don’t feel safe that these older men are swiping left on me. I wish I could make the settings 18-19 instead of it automatically staying at 18-20. Also, 18 year olds should still be allowed to see other 17 year olds as these 17 year olds could be turning 18 later on. I want to see ppl that are actually MY age, even if that means they’re a few months younger. I just don’t feel comfortable and safe seeing men who are older than 19 years old. You should change this about the app and give us users the option to specifically see the ages we want to see, for our own safety..Version: 3.51.10

Needs to be fixedI think the face scan to certify age feature is a good concept, however i have made multiple attempts to use it and every time it says “error” and does not let me forward. At first i gave the app the benefit of the doubt and assumed it was my internet, but it then did not work again when i knew my service was good. This is not the first time something like this has happened, i hope this issue can be resolved soon as i usually enjoy using the app and meeting new people on it. And just to clarify, i have already tried things such as standing in better lighting, different angles, tucking my hair behind my ears, etc., just in case that was the problem but it has made no difference..Version: 4.10.1

A time waster! And too many thirsty hipstersThis app is basically tinder for thirsty narcissistic trendy teenagers ..Don’t waste your time on this app ..Version: 3.19

The app is dooky flakesI was on live with my grandma and we were having a fun time until a toddler joined and started cussing at us in Arabic. He call my grandma a convincing garbage can that raccoons live out off. My grandma cried till one of her eyeballs fell out. Then we got banned from the live due to the gore and stuff. This app needs to be deleted cause cyber bullying is real it’s not a joke. 😤😤😤 PERIOD PURRRRR.Version: 4.0.10

Stupid MonitizationI thought the point of the app was to find new friends. so why the hell do you make ppl pay $8 a week just to do that. yall must be money hungry as hell god damn smh.Version: 3.47.2

New updateI have been on yubo for the best part of 4 years now and have had zero issues with it until what I assume to be the latest update in which I now have to pay to access my swipe filters, how am I possibly supposed to meet people locally to me if I can’t set my location to my local area, and no I will not be paying to access these features as this app was intended to be a free way for people to meet other similar people. One more issue I have is the system that tags use, if someone has a lot of tags I want to be able to scroll through them or have a way to see all of the tags whereas now they cut some off. Other than these issues I loved yubo and it was a great app unfortunately however having to pay to access my swipe filters has ruined it for me..Version: 4.11.10

ToxicI put in the wrong age and was annoyed by that fact me a 17 year old was getting objectified by 24 year olds. once i realised my mistake i went to change my birthday so that it was people my own age and that wanted me to “verify” i tried to but realised they wanted my id and i don’t want to give that to a random app. they deactivated my account until i verified who i was so i decided to delete my account and make a new one with the right birthday and for some reason it’s still deactivated. not happy with this at all. honestly the whole platform just makes women feel more insecure and especially young girls. boys on there only want nudes and get angry when they don’t get what they want. honestly do not support this app at all!.Version: 4.0.2

HmmThis App has great potential to be one of the top social media sites for sure! It features several different ways in which you can communicate with people across the country allowing you to create some positive relations with people! However, I have been on this app for no more than a week and a solid 70% of the profiles that have swiped right on me, have been duds. Matching with someone creates this excitement which is quickly shut down after receiving a message to add them on SC or to message them on WhatsApp. It’s now easy to see something is wrong when this request comes before a normal ‘hello’. The first time this happened, I was vulnerable to it and proceeded to add this dud on SC. This followed immediately with explicit images and a request for my bank details in order for more! I was in genuine shock as it was the 2nd or 3rd person I’d come into contact with on the app. Since discovering these dud accounts, they haven’t stopped pouring in! I continuously see the same ones over and over with a similar name and picture. Regardless of how many reports I submit, it seems they just keep coming back to the top of my swipe pile. Besides this major issue with the app, the structure and concept of it is perfect and would certainly recommend it to people..Version: 4.8.14

Fix your serversRight now it is being crappy, people join and it’s making things where people cannot be able to go live with friends due to connective errors. Update and fix the bugs please.Version: 4.11.53

Needs Ironing OutFor an app that allows you to meet new people, this one is fantastic! I have little to criticise this app for in terms of negative qualities - but that doesn’t necessarily mean there aren’t issues there. For example, the tag feature is a way of showing your interests in order to have a better chance of meeting more like-minded individuals. But other than that, it’s just a display option. I still have to swipe for hours to find someone remotely interesting. Maybe some development on the Yubo algorithm could be used? I’d definitely find this app more enjoyable if the algorithm showed me people that actually share the same tags as me. Another small gripe I have is the Livestream naming system. I can name my live something completely mundane like “Night Vibes” and it gets removed? I have to keep typing it again and again or change the name completely to get my live to keep the name i’ve set for it. It’s not a major issue but it can be a little irritating. Other than that! This app is fantastic! I have made lots of long-term friends on here local and long-distance and we’re all planning to go away this summer! The UI is friendly and I love the different categories for livestreams that Yubo has to offer! Please keep up the good work! <3.Version: 4.1.1

PaymentsYou’re about to loose all your users by not letting people swipe right for free. This app is horrible now..Version: 3.12

It’s cool but ..It’s a cool app , i love meeting new people , but the more they change up rules and add features the less and less people get on, making viewers harder to find and making everyone hate the app. there’s two different communities, so you can’t hang out with your older friends which is the dumbest thing i have ever heard of. all my friends are 20+ but i’m 17 so i don’t get to join their lives, i mean who wants to join a 17 and under live ? the swipe app doesn’t work on multiple accounts, and the app changes what year you’re born in to a year that you weren’t born in. you don’t get notifications for lives or texts anymore and for a lot of people, the dms don’t work, they can receive dms but not send them. this app needs serious work and needs to listen to the people ON the app instead of the workers because making two communities is the worst thing they could’ve done for the app. ruined the app completely. as for having an iphone XS max , the screen recording option doesn’t work . they took off the option to lock rooms which makes it very difficult if you want to talk about a topic no one else needs to hear..Version: 3.33.2

OutrageousThis is completely ridiculous. This app just opens up further emotional insecurity’s in very young girls because it is full of young boys who as for nudes, and it doesn’t matter, you can report them but it takes forever for there to be any action from Yubo and even then the damage is already done. Who on earth thought it was okay to subject 13-17 year olds to this. You have created a platform to turn 13 year olds into sexualised young girls and all the way up to 17 year olds to question their beauty and worth based upon the approval of young boys. Plus you’re creating boys who have no respect for woman and allowing them to believe they are entitled to asking to seek nude women, how long before they decide they don’t need to ask anymore and resort to taking in their schools or their community. This is absolutely disgusting and there are no parental controls on the app so that we can try and protect our children..Version: 3.3.1

ProblèmeJe n’ai plus l’option swiper.Version: 2.46

YuboI made really good friends until they all turned on me because I didn’t like that they were toxic and I told them that. They all hate me and I want to kill myself. Everyone on this app is toxic. Please if you’re sensitive don’t get it. It will tear you apart.Version: 3.55.3

Wish i could give 0 starsI had this app about 3 years ago, loved it and made tons of new friends.. recently redownloaded the app to find that there is nothing but racism, homophobia, bullying, and harassment rampant in there. not once, but 3 times just today within a 4 hour period have i fallen victim to all 4 of the things mentioned above, with no repercussion from any moderator this app claims to have. i have reported countless profiles and lives with little success in getting any attention from moderators or help in any way. i see no reason for anyone to join this app unless they are looking to get harassed and bullied simply for existing. i hope to see an improvement on moderator involvement with the things people say within lives and DM’s, along with more severe consequences for those choosing to partake in such vile behavior which has to be a part of some kind of guidelines this app should have. people who do get banned simply make new accounts, and i feel like it should be harder for those to make accounts if they have been banned/reported before, especially with reports of harassment, racism, hate speech, and inappropriate behavior. do not recommend this app unless you’re looking to be harassed in more ways than one..Version: 4.25.2

TrashI downloaded this app to make new friends, but people just use it to hook up. You also have to pay for features that used to be free (preference such as age, gender and country). Not worth your time or money. Use another app instead if you’re looking for friends..Version: 4.11.10

Money grabber, not worth itThis app looked really promising from the description and the reviews, but after setting up my profile, I realized it’s just a money grabber. The whole point of the app is to make friends, but you can’t even see the people who swiped right on you unless you pay! That means you’ll never know if you’re interested in the same people who are interested in you. It won’t even let you add back people who added you unless you pay. The whole thing is frustrating and seems to make the app pointless. Plus, when I was going through the swiping function of the app, there were a lot of pot heads and ppl looking for hookups. Things that Yubo claims they don’t allow, and take down. It’s not worth paying $12 for ONE week of premium service where I may or may not make some friends. I get that app developers need to make money, but there has to be some other way besides what they’re currently doing. Maybe instead of not allowing you to see anyone who added you, you could allow you to see and add at least 20 ppl a day or something. Until you can use this app for its actual purpose, I’m out..Version: 4.9.3

Verification is a hassleI understand the point of verifying your account but users should get a choice if they want to or not. it shouldn’t be forced on them. i’ve been locked out of my account and forced to verify to get access to my account. i have had my photos stolen from this app and used to harass me and i can imagine so many people have been in the same situation so verification should be a choice and not forced. the app is an amazing app to meet people i love the fact you can filter by tags so you can be friends with people who like the same things as you. the people on the app are lovely and it’s a really good app with some paid features. if only they’d make verification a choice and not forced the app would be so much better. it actually puts peoples safety more at risk by forcing users to verify..Version: 4.11.13

Swipe limitIt's such a waste now. Get rid of the swipe, 5 per 15 mins? At least up the limit if you need to have one..Version: 3.42.5

ExpensiveIt was annoying that you had to pay to see who added you but you could deal with it. With the new update you have to pay to get people that live near you, now I’m just getting people from other continents, there’s no point in having the app anymore so I’m deleting.Version: 4.11.10

Lock and feeling forcedSo like many others, I was minding my own business when suddenly out of the blue I was locked out of my account for security reasons, I thought nothing of it deleted my account and made a new one, only to find that In order to access the app again I MUST BREACH MY PRIVICY, by sending my personal Id with my very personal information, ie a passport or drivers license, to use the app, but the app is somehow still riddled with bots yet the real people have to suffer with no other way around, I have lost contact with people who I felt a connection with because of this, if this issue is fixed where people can reactivate their accounts without sending personal information then I’ll re rate, possible fixes could be as simple as a video of the person sending a video of them saying their name and date of birth and email, then it getting processed by a human so it is sorted by someone and it doesn’t happen again, this way catfish accounts can be sifted out quickly and less bots will control the app.Version: 4.6.5

Yubo ain’t the same how it use to beI first joined years ago was a brilliant app then I deleted it because I was taken and now I’m single so I thought I’d go back on to see what as changed and I can honestly say it’s boring… all you get is negative comments when you join the lives and bad manners.. they ignore you when you message and they expect you to join live it’s boring why should I talk to the whole world no thanks. Rated 1 star as I’m not happy so I’m moving on to wink as that app you can talk and message without live being said and they never bully like this app.. until I see a change with the lives I want be going back on at all there should be a limit on the lives that’s a fact as it ain’t fair on other people that like to message only but get ignored ridiculous..Version: 4.8.20

Used to love itI used to love this app and made a lot of friends on it, but now the new rule Yubo implemented preventing people younger than 18 to join the lives of people 18 or older has ruined it. I had a group of friends who I’d go live with and now 3 of are friends we can’t go live with. I also had another group who were between the ages of 18-21 and it wasn’t a safety issue, but now I can’t join their live. I’m 17 I can’t join half my friends lives because half or so of my friends are 18 or older and when I turn 18 next month I won’t be able to join the other half’s lives because they’re younger than 18. I really loved this app and I have tons of friends who do too, but we’re all extremely upset over this new rule. It doesn’t make the app better like updates are supposed to, it makes it worse. The live setting that allowed you to restrict viewing age worked just fine. I understand y’all just wanna ensure people’s safety but it’s frustrating to people who have already made friends with people and can’t talk to them now. Please consider changing this rule, hopefully before I turn 18, so I can still talk to my friends who are 17 and 16. Thank you!.Version: 3.25

Pay for peopleI used to like this app, but why has it brought in this system where we now have to pay for the app? I understand that the creators may think it could be a much more profitable app but like seriously? It’s meant for teens that’s it, which is parent or teen is gonna wanna pay just too see if they found a match or a new friend, unless this idea was to stop the constant flow of boys asking for nudes it isn’t going to work, people will simply stop using the app because of it and the business will loose any revenue, this has been a total failure of misguidance, the app needs to go back to the way it used to be just good old swipe left swipe right no cost.Version: 3.8

Used to like it.Alright so when I first got this app it was great, I had no problem with anything until now. It seems like since yubo is now getting more popular more updates are happening which makes the app crappy, like the fact that you have to pay to keep swiping on profiles and to see who swiped on you is ridiculous. But that’s not the only thing that’s messed up, so I recently uploaded a photo to my profile which was just me in a skirt with a shirt on but apparently that’s inappropriate to show off your thighs, which got my account blocked. I then updated the profile as it told me too and I did this like 100 times but it kept telling me I needed to change it, and that I needed to show my face , which I had 4 pictures of my face clearly on there. I then sent an email to yubo and they received my email and so to them fixing the problem was to completely lock me out of my account ( can’t even delete it) and force me to download some app called “yoti” which makes you give your identity to them. I don’t know why you need my identity? The pictures on the profile were me I have no idea why yubo suspected something wrong I’ve never had this problem. It’s so weird , I really used to love this app but it’s trash now. I’m not giving up my identity just to unlock my profile, yoti has a 2 star review with a bunch of people saying it’s a scam. Don’t download this app it’s costly and crappy and you’ll probably get banned for no reason..Version: 3.29

MehThis app is okay for meeting people. but what i dont like is how theres lots of weirdos on the app whos ask for pictures and things. also i would like if you could add like a story kinda thing where u can like post things and say stuff so you can tell people when your going lives and thing. also please add a way of sending a video to someone on the messages. also my old account nathanparker145 got deleted for no reason because apparently i broke yubo guide lines. i would like to know what i did wrong. {edit} my new account just got temporarilly banned because i was on a live with someone who was breaking the rules i did nothing wrong and i think i shouldnt be given a 6 hour ban for something i didnt do..Version: 3.25

Crashes constantlyLove the app but it crashes all the time. And right now I can't even start a live! For some reason it wont let me and I can only see three lives around the world.Version: 2.45

This app…So there’s a plethora of bad things about it, 1- the verification, I ain’t shipping off my ID to some dodgy people online just to use it. 2-the amount of times people use the f slur to berate me is unbelievable, this app literally kindles trauma. 3- most of the people on it are either bots or bullies, you’ll either be asked to add them on snap or told you’re a fat sl*g so good luck. 4- the amount of micro transactions and pay walls for the most basic of things is just disgusting and poor quality this literally screams “we are a desperate company that needs money to avoid taxes.” 5- the distance is a joke, it’s not difficult to fix, it’s awful to use. You all ought to fix this app before some kid gets called a racial slur or a homophobic/transphobic slur, using it is like breaking each one of your toes individually with a mallet. Might wanna fix it before it’s to late, I’m surprised no one has sued yet..Version: 4.9.20

NOT for college women. This is for 16 yr old boysI found this app through an advertisement. I downloaded it and within minutes I was just absolutely appalled. As a 22 year old woman, even after populating my page with tags of genuine interest, and photos that represented me and my passions, it was just an ocean AN OCEAN of uncomfortable boys. Not even men , BOYS. there are so many young kids. I was thinking it would be more of a college age, or that it would be an option to customize, but the population, despite all my customizations for age and location, was dreadful. I know the app developers can’t change the community using their app, but women beware, it’s very strange on there. Very weird people and uncomfortable profiles. Like a fight for attention and mass selecting adding people. Did NOT see myself represented in this. Even the pricing was weird because if you want to search through tags and find people you can single out to click with, you have to use coins or money to send them and it’s just all so weird. I get that an entire generation of kids are doing the best they can on apps like this but woah. Do not use this app if you’re over the age of 16. This is 16 and under, and main population is boys.Version: 4.12.14

DisappointedThis app was a great way to meet people in your country. But now you gotta pay to customize your swipe? I get you’re trying to make money, but you’re gonna lose people over this foolishness. Very disappointed tbh.Version: 4.11.10

Needs improvement.This app is way too sensitive, my friend and I decided to practice doing some special fx makeup on a live together and we got banned for a week...there are literally 12-15 year olds faking their age and speaking to adults but special fx makeup is more of a concern???? Maybe ban the children instead. You literally can’t do anything on this app, It’s like the app is for toddlers and children even though it claims to be “17+” we cannot do or say anything that normal 17 year olds would do, blocking any little bad thing.. like certain words or even a knife when someone is cooking on live. My friend and I will not be spreading the word about this app, what’s the point of an app were you can’t do anything but speak and act like a 5 year old..Version: 4.5.4

BuggyI sent through stuff saying how it’s so buggy. It’s annoying, I receive messages but can’t view them, and I receive 100 notifications after only receiving one message sometimes?.Version: 2.91

Can be okI used to use the app earlier in the year and i met a few people I still stay in contact with today so yeah the app does what it’s meant to do. But I was bored today and I thought I’d go back on yubo so I downloaded the app, made myself a new account and instantly my account was locked, this obviously annoyed me but I persevered and made a Yoti account and if I thought it couldn’t have got worse the two accounts wouldn’t link no button on the app related to Yoti on yubo would work and I was leftInfuriated by the state the app was now in. With a constant spam of notifications telling me to post a picture of my face, then blocking me from using the app unless I verified myself, then not letting me verify myself this made the app pretty useless and wasted my night.Version: 3.51.7

WrongMy profil was blocked and i keep going send email for recuperating my profil back ,but nothing change..Version: 3.38.1

Poor customer service/ updated reviewI’ve had this app for about maybe a year. But recently I’ve decided to get back on it since I never really used it like that only once a week to see if anyone i knew was on. All of a sudden my account got blocked I couldn’t swipe on anyone and all of the lives just disappeared and it would say choose another country, no other country had lives. I couldn’t message anyone at all and when I contacted the customer support they said “ sorry for the inconvenience we’ve identified the issue and will fix it in the next update”. 7 updates later and almost a month or two later nothing has been fixed and no update from customer service on what happened or why it was happening to me. After several emails I recently got the same message again and honestly just done with the app. Nothing has been done. Update: February 14,2021 Remembered this app and decided to give it a 6th chance lol on my new phone, to no surprise I was immediately blocked so I would highly advise not even wasting your time on this app. Encountered plenty of racism while on this and support really didn’t do nothing about it. you call these guys out or even try to get some type of help and you get blocked and ignored..Version: 3.55.4

I got locked for no reason ya no f this appSo this app is good. I like it a lot and it’s super easy to make friends. But if your super young like me I’m 13 and you get locked out your account you can’t really do anything. Like we’re old enough we just look super young and then we get locked out our accounts and it’s pretty annoying. Cause I made a lot of new friends and now I got locked and I can’t get unlocked. so that’s the only thing and now I can’t even use the app. So if there’s anyway I could unlock it Imk but other than that the app isn’t that bad actually pretty dope just didn’t like how I got locked and some other account glitches Ya pretty terrible about that glitch Yubo please fix your app Ya no terrible because I have no way to unlock my account and I’m old enough to use it idk why I got locked. And Yubo doesn’t respond to any reviews no f this app Yubo you guidelines and way too strict and don’t use your brains and lock random accounts cause they LOOK “young” ya f out of here bro and I’ve made a decent amount of friends boom just gone like Yubo doesn’t respond, trash app, too strict guidelines, and doesn’t even bother to change it I can’t with this app. 🤦‍♂️.Version: 4.0.10

TerribleWhen i first signed up I made my account as a joke but actually ended up liking it. I put a random age with a random year just to complete the sign up process quick. Now I know i quite like the app. However I go to change my age because i realized the app is actually safe and now i feel comfortable and it is asking for my ID?! I paid for a week $9.99 for the membership or whatever now I try to change my age and my account gets locked. Absolutely baffles me. I wanted to make sure the app is safe before i put my real information in. Now for the last 2 days my account has been under review after i submitted my ID- birth certificate because i don’t have an ID. My membership should be paused or something. I’m missing out on the conversations i was having and making new friends all because i wanted to change my age. I checked today and It says my information was rejected?! It’s my state birth certificate how are you going to tell me my information is wrong. I got frustrated and made a new account and deleted the old. I’m already upset because i was talked to a bunch of people making friends now I have to start all over. After making my account it says my NEW account is locked and needs to be verified. This is beyond outrageous. I understand the need to check ID’s but it’s an app targeted towards minors. Most minors don’t have ID’s. Very stupid in my opinion. Waste of time..Version: 4.0.5

Needs Better Distance FiltersSo, Yubo is a pretty good app but it really needs a better distance filter. Currently, there is worldwide, worldwide but prioritising your country or your country only. As someone who’s trying to make irl friends, I use my country only. The problem is, this means I’m shown profiles from anywhere in the UK, from Glasgow to Kent, Inverness to Devon. It’s rare that I actually find people near where I live and even then the paywall on the swipe means they probably won’t see it. Now, with a more refined location filter that allows you to search by a specific distance (for example a certain amount of miles, hell even just a my city first option) the paywall wouldn’t be too much of an issue as the other person could find my profile on the swipe pretty easily but because it only searches on a nationwide level it means they’ll have to go through hundreds of accounts before they find mine. I can only imagine how big of a problem that would be in a large country like the US. It’s inefficient and somewhat defeats the purpose of the app. Also, the ability to see who we’ve swiped right on would be nice..Version: 3.47.4

Nearly peopleThe only thing I don’t like is that the app doesn’t have an option for choosing people that live close to you so sometime I just find people so far away 🤷🏻‍♀️.Version: 3.50.2

YuboI like this app but overall …too much money I don’t like the new update at all what so ever … u have to pay ? to be able to swipe on a certain gender now ? …I don’t like it at all anymore kinda ridiculous to have to set what age u want it at like I seriously don’t want no 13yr olds adding me the hell ? just a way to get more money ? there’s people out there who don’t earn enough money for such things like me it’s litterly a app that mainly teenagers use and yous are trying to bribe us away with money ? instead of most kids needing to save there money there gonna spend it on stupid things like this ! Don’t like the new update what so ever ..Version: 4.11.10

Thank you! Would recommend But...Big thank you to yubo got to meet my boyfriend on here as well as heaps of others. Although Yubo hasn’t always been the best experience with having other girls be extremely disrespectful and some guys constantly asking for nudes. Once I matched with my boyfriend and he joined my live we clicked now going on 3 months later haven’t looked back since. Would never recommend your app HOWEVER you must be a really strong person and not be a kinda person who is easily manipulated because you do have some extremely sketchy people on here it isn’t the apps fault but watch your back. Thanks again Yubo wish all apps had as good monitoring as the Yubo team does. Xx.Version: 3.3.1

AccountI deleted my account over a month ago and people are still finding me on there. I’ve tried logging in and it says my account is non existent. I would like my account taken off permanently if that’s what the delete account is for.Version: 3.24.3

It’s OK.Yubo app is fine like the app itself. It works great, at times can be a little tricky/confusing to use, but overall well designed. The only thing is the people on the app. This is going to happen with pretty much any social media app or app that market s itself as a way to make friends, but so many people are CREEPS. I mean downright WEIRDOS. I have had multiple 17 year old men in my dm’s calling me “pretty girl”. I have a S/O so I don’t respond unless they say “hey” and not some weird compliments or cheesy pick up line. I could go on and on about that, but the one other thing I want to mention is that you have to buy a bunch of things on the app. There is an option (kind of like Tinder weirdly enough…) where you can swipe left or right on someone based on their profile tags/description/appearance. Swiping on people is 100% free, BUT if you want to see who swiped on YOU then you have to pay. In my opinion that stuff if reallyyyy annoying because it feels like every other thing I tap on is asking me to pay for a me membership. So yeah I give Yubo a 3/5. Only go on here if you are looking for a bf or gf because this of definitely more of a dating app than an app to make friends..Version: 4.10.2

Toxicity and Bullying GaloreIt’s ironic with the community the app has built. It’s filled with the typical outsider that has no friends, and they love to be toxic. They live to bully others on the app cause they’re bullied in person but they are power hungry and have it for once in their life. I used to be on the app consistently back in 2018 and prior whenever it was called Yellow. I redownload it every so often (every 6-9 months) and see how it’s doing and what all has changed. I’ve never even needed the app, I just would use it out of boredom. If you want to be randomly harassed as a woman, blocked and banned for no reason, or made fun of without any provocation then this app is for you! :) If you want to make friends, start your own live and rarely join others. Most of the time the people will already have a group of online friends and they will treat you terribly if you try to join in. On the rare occasion they are polite, there is a 50/50 chance they will ban you from the live without a warning and no particular reason. It happens all the time. Anyways, take this into consideration as you read this. Most people with social lives won’t even be bothered to download this app so go ahead of you lack one. If you download cause of an ad and you’re just bored, this isn’t for you. It isn’t for me. It’s like all the band kids decided to make an app and meet there. Also lonely stoners. Overall just avoid it if you’re even somewhat normal..Version: 4.9.9

Over priced for absolutely no reason. updatedI’ve had this app since it was called yellow and honestly they’re charging people for no reason. the developers just want your money. when it was yellow, literally all of the “elite” features you have to pay for now were FREE or you’d just have to watch an add to see a few people at a time. but now it’s more annoying because they don’t re-show people like they used to do now there’s a point of “running out of profiles” to swipe on just to make you pay to see who’s swiped on you already. how is this app “great for making friends” but they try to force you into paying to see who does want to be your friend or whatever. i have about 200 people i’ll probably never meet because this app wants to charge you an arm and a leg TO MAKE FRIENDS don’t waste your time people, you might make some neat friends but they’ll try to push you into buying their passes and whatever else because the DEVELOPERS ARE MONEY HUNGRY. furthering my point now they’ve forced an update which doesn’t allow you to choose your swipe settings. and you have to pay for it in order to be more selective of who your looking for. mind you this feature was COMPLETELY FREE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK. the people running this app are just running it into the ground because who in their right mind would pay 13$ for ONE week of their “power packs” or 18$ for ONE MONTH. it’s genuinely pathetic on their end..Version: 4.11.10

It’s a good app - minus a few peopleI’ve got this type of love/hate relationship with this app. whenever i get bored, i always create a new account and then delete it once i seem to be unable to get more adds, and the cycle repeats. i don’t really watch the lives but when i do, there always seems to be drama going on. i clicked a group of boys that were live today thinking it would be funny but instead i was watching 1 guy full on screaming and swearing at the 2 other guys. half of the boys i’ve spoken to on yubo all mainly want one thing: indecent pictures. it’s sad that i can’t have one conversation with a boy without him asking “do u send?” or “u freaky?” and then when i tell him ‘no’, they decide to not reply again. don’t get me wrong, there are some good boys on yubo, i met this one boy on there and we’ve been friends ever since, pretty much speaking almost everyday. another thing about some boys is that if you’ve not got the prettiest face, then you’ve probably got a “banging” body which then leads to them yet again asking for inappropriate pics. a good number of them don’t seem to have a filter when it comes to saying things; if they think you’re ugly, they’ll probably straight up tell you/ reject you. when it comes to making friends, yubo isn’t that bad but be careful because a handful of boys can be really rude. back onto the positive side, yubo has helped me in becoming more confident in both myself and talking to other people, boys especially :).Version: 3.47.4

Cool app but..Yubo is a good app and it helps with being more social and making friends and more but there are many problems that people go thru using this app like for example the strict moderation alerts..people keep getting banned for the smallest things like boys being shirtless which is not something that is rare to see now a days there’s many times my friends have been banned for no reason..another problem is getting yotied. Many people have problems with this because some get yotied for no apparent reason which is very annoying to deal with and it apparently needs many of our personal information which is ofc very shady and there is no need for us to share all of our info to a random app we all downloaded. Also I was forced to be verified and got yotied for no reason so ik what it’s like.. Another problem is that we can’t add ppl who are older or younger. Like for example, let’s say I’m 14 and I have friends who r either 15 or 16 and I can’t add them because of yubos strict guidelines. Another thing is that we have to pay to see the people who swiped on us. Especially since it’s 7 dollars a week is too much. Most of us are only teenagers and we have to pay weekly just to see who has interest in us which is so dumb and basically makes having Yubo useless. This app is mostly to make new friends but at the same time..because the rules are too strict we can’t even do that . So I suggest that you change up the rules a bit and be less strict..Version: 3.54.4

Needs to be betterWhat is the point of having a swiping app when you can’t even see who’s swiped on you? The price to make friends is way too much and if I, the consumer is watching ads then why should I have to pay to basically use the whole point of the app?! It used to be good when I could see who wanted to be friends with me but now there’s just no point. People would love to use this app but y’all gotta do better..Version: 3.34

Decent idea but people ruin itI think we should leave apps like this to tinder and others that are made for an older audience. The age says 17+ but is only under 18’s on there. I’m 17 and got this app from boredom and loneliness really, but unless you’re a supermodel guy or girl, you won’t be getting very many friendly people on here. The lives are awful, everyone is horrible to each other and offends people’s looks. There are quite a few fake profiles or people of much older ages on there looking for children too. Also the location option doesn’t even work. You pick a preferred distance to find people in but I think out of 600 or so friends I had, I found about a total of 4 from my area or within an hours drive. Most people you find are from across the country, even with these settings on. This app is a good idea to connect people, but ironically does the opposite as the unfriendliness of teenagers only makes the experience a bad one. I do not suggest this app unless you look like a supermodel or Olympic athlete. It’s not worth your time..Version: 3.28

AnnoyingI shouldn’t have to use real money to buy fake money to see who added me from ‘suggestion’.Version: 4.11.48

I’m justI’m just going on a ride home and I’m going on the road to pick it out lol I just got off your car now I have a big truck I need you guys here at my place and I’ll just be in a bit later I just want you guys in my room and I’m so excited for the day I just got off the bus I’m going on a big trip and I love it I just want you guys too big and I’m so proud of you guys so I don’t have a good day too so sorry to bother but I’m sorry I’m just not feeling good.Version: 4.11.5

This isn’t the bestIt won’t let me get back into my account unless I go through this yoti thing and the yoti asks for your personal information like pass port ID and drivers license. Please fix this..Version: 3.52.0

Really good app, unnecessary and dumb verification requirementsI love this app and have been using it since it came out as yellow, but they are now requiring me to verify with the dumb Yoti app. To verify you must provide any sort of Id like a drivers license. This app was made for 13-17 year olds, most of the people that are 16 and under don’t even have any sort of identification so how are you supposed to identify yourself?? I know a lot of other people this is happening to. Emailed the yubo team but they just send automated messsges back everytime that are no help at all, I need a actual person to help not a bot. I even pay for the subscription for yubo monthly. It’s impossible for me to verify because I’m 16 and have no id or access to any, and you can also use a school id but my school has never given us access to a school id or a physical school id so it is virtually impossible for me to use yubo now unless they unlock my account. It is ridiculous and unnecessary and no one from yubo is helping. I suggest they take away the requirements of a Yoti verification like it was before or they will lose a lot of their active users..Version: 3.54.0

Findings on the appI wanted to test and see whether the app was meant to create new friends. I created many accounts to test my theory. First I created an account for over 18 and made my bio friendly. Sure enough about 1 in every 10 messaged me about becoming friends. Secondly, I tested whether or not being a little explicit would change the results. It did. For starters 1 in every 5 would message and about 10% of them, would be explicit conversations. I was going to finish here, but to test the age (since there were people that were lowering their age) I made an account that was 17 and all it asked for was a picture of my face. this made it too easy for older people to disguise themselves as younger people. I would suggest using some form of ID, like a school ID and take picture for a higher level of security. Overall, I making friends is the number one priority with the app, but there are a pretty large number of people that are going beyond what it’s meant to be used for. (For users: if you are going to use this app for anything beyond making friends, please don’t use this app).Version: 4.10.3

Good app, but...I enjoy the purpose of the app and it works well, however, could you please allow a filter by distance, it’s much easier to meet a friend you might make if they don’t live 100km away..Version: 3.40.2

SmhI really enjoyed this app, until I got banned for no reason saying i was a catfish, and The confirming process asks for way too many private personal information that does not make people comfortable, sending a picture of me holding a sign to confirm it’s me is enough,I’m not gonna send a picture of my passport or drivers license for a company that doesn’t need to know much that kind of information,.Version: 3.49.4

Please updatePlease developers can you update the app to where we can get at least a trial of the power pack. It’s supposed to be a fun game and we cannot see who added us on the swipe I have over 120 swipes and can’t see not one of them it’s very disappointing how I have to pay to see who swiped (MONEY HUNGRY )🤬.Version: 3.47.2

Great app but major issuesThis is a great app and I’ve met a few people on here that I’ve been friends with for awhile. Although, this app has some major problems, if there was P2W in an app like there is on games, this would be the headliner. You have to pay to make friends, you can’t swipe right more than 5 times within a certain time period or it gives a 15 minute timer, to do infinite you have to pay ELEVEN DOLLARS, PER MONTH, which is an insanely high price. Not only that but you can’t even see who’s swiped on you, you have to just go through and eventually hope you see all of them in your swipes, if you don’t, the only way to see it is with that same monthly cost as before. I get paying to boost yourself, maybe get yourself out there more or even to see who’s swiped you but limiting your swipes is absurd and it’s hugely overpriced. Not to mention the fact that everyone on there is between 13-18 so probably won’t even have a job and I doubt you’re gonna be on that app if you’re some rich superstar so idk who tf has enough money to pay for that.Version: 3.50.2

PAYING for the most BASIC functionality? ❌Ummmmm I’ve had Yubo for almost 4 years now and I’m turning 18 this year. Why all of a sudden is this app trying to make me pay 16$ per WEEK (??????) to customise my swipe settings so that I can interact with people my age? You’re lying if you haven’t downloaded this app to at least *try* and find a quick hookup and if the devs were good at their job they would know that. I am not comfortable with being forced to swipe on 13 y/os just because I’m not a legal adult yet, so I’m deleting the app. Can’t wait to get Tinder in a few months..Version: 4.11.10

Great app+recent updateHonestly this is a great app. I’ve made 3 great friends and met one of my ex’s there. I think it’s a great idea for making friends or finding a s/o. Ppl complain about kids sending nudes, yet that’s what they do. This app doesn’t make it easier, it just widens options. Although this app is great, I do have one concern, I just recently updated the app, just now in fact (20th of March 2018) and it no longer shows the ages of people on their profile, was this deliberate or is it a bug? Because I’d like to know the ages of those I swipe past, in case they are older than they look.Version: 2.84

BanningI like this app so much but there’s a downfall on it 😶 my acc recently got banned for nothing I met so many people on there and recommended this app to people I still say you should download this app but stop the random banning from the app for no reason I deleted the app and reinstalled it so I could get unbanned and make a new acc please stop!.Version: 3.25

Confirming my identityI was blocked from my yubo account until i confirm my identity on a second app (yori). I dont have a passport or any government ID because i never needed one but i have to use one to confirm my identity on yoti. I’m just going to delete yubo because I can’t do anything about this. You’re going to lose many people if u keep this up..Version: 3.44

I KEPT GETTING LOCKED OUT OF MY ACCOUNTWhen i first got yubo everything was working fine. Then on my second day of use, as soon as i opened the app i get a page pop up saying “You have been logged out of your account for security reasons and need to verify your account”. It asked me to download an app called Yoti. In this app they ask you to put your face on camera - almost like a face I.D where they scan your face. I didn’t want to do this as i didn’t want my face saved on an app i didn’t understand so i proceeded to delete my yubo account and make a new one. THE SAME THING HAPPENED but i didn’t even get to use the app for one day it did it as soon as i created the account. All i wanted from the app was to enjoy it the same way my friends did joining lives and making friends but it became almost scary when i was being forced to have my face scanned so i could continue to use the app. I don’t understand why this happened to me and I deleted and downloaded Yubo multiple times to see if it would change and it didn’t. Please could they male an update where this doesn’t happen at all and we can just enjoy the app without having to have our faces scanned. Please let me know if this has happened to anyone else thank you. The app has been a disappointment for me..Version: 3.47.4

Change it back. Now.You can’t even create an account without an Apple ID anymore. Nothing but a stupid decision that is cutting people off from making accounts.. the Apple ID that my phone is under isn’t even mine, so I feel uncomfortable having an account bound to that email, and having updates and passwords resets go through that email. It would be fine if you could still make an account with an email you choose, making it optional, but for some reason they felt the need to screw people over and take it away, absolutely disgusting...Version: 4.11.86

App is ruined due to greedy developersSure, the company makes money, but having to pay $$$ just to swipe on more than 10 people is stupid. DO NOT DOWNLOAD -WASTE OF TIME. App is ruined and there’s no point if you wanna actually make friends. You ain’t gonna make friends, just a crapton of payments. Stupid. Just make friends another way..Version: 3.44

Swiping limit?Swiping limit is awful. remove it please.Version: 3.12

Please stop....I loved this app as it was a way to meet new friends and cool people, I had so much fun on lives listening to people tell funny stories and embarrassing times, now everytime the app updates I have to be afraid of worried about what else is it going to try to make me pay for? First it was to see who added me so I can talk to more people and now they took away the right to swipe right on as many people as you wanted and are charging you $6 dollars a week, $10 a month and like $20 for 3 months. That’s absurd, it shouldn’t have to be monthly to meet new people, the purpose of the app says it’s to connect people around the world and make friends who would be interesting, however all I’m starting to see are money hungry developers who are driving away the diversity and people who roam this app. I have many high hopes for this app and I hope they do a 180 and decide to calm down a bit but they also separated the community in two. 18 and below and 18 and up. You cannot add or contact anyone in the other community and I think it’s absurd..Version: 3.42.5

AI FACE SCAMS??I’m a younger looking male and Yubo requires me to use a ID just because of the way I look! This app should b illegal!! I feel like it discrimination I feel it’s illegal and I’ll be contacting my lawyers because I want to know why was banned because of the way I look....and made to present ID when my other friends use the app there the same age as me, do all the same things I do all the time with no Id required why does yubo get to pick and choose who it discriminates against !This app calls itself keeping people safe but what it’s really doing is body shaming teenagers who don’t “look there age” like that’s our faults how we look!! Major age issues on this app , IMO it need to be investigated because they are also storing a lot of people sensitive private info on there servers such as ID’s of minors which if a data leak happens can be very dangerous I do not like this app it needs to be taken down and replaced with something better less strict and hurtful to people’s feelings because we are not ALL THE SAME we should not b treated like this by a app ! The rules have become so strict the app has become un usable to anyone but a 7 yr old.Version: 4.6.3

Absolutely TERRIBLE, shut it downThis app is supposed to be for MAKING FRIENDS not a dating site for UNDER 18s. This app is more like a b-tec tinder and that’s saying something. I hope you guys end up getting sued and shut down entirely. Not only does it support dating for UNDER 18s, it does not do anything about CYBER BULLYING on the livestreams, I have joined MULTIPLE livestreams, and this girl who’s autistic gets made fun of. me and my friends have witnessed SEVERAL racist remarks. it is literally awful. put an end to it. There are so many creepy over aged people who lie and try to talk to younger members of the app. It is not okay. This is the most IRRITATING app I’ve ever come across, I still don’t understand how yubo is still an app. This app deserves to be shut down. If you don’t see the problem then you are apart of the problem..Version: 4.4.1

Few things need to be sorted outI’ve been on this app for a few months now and I’ve all around enjoyed it however there is 1 issue I have with it and that’s the distance meter in settings. I feel like it should be a little more detailed since I get people from all over the uk who don’t even live near me but are within the smallest distance u can set it to. I understand that you want to keep peoples privacy in terms of location but at least can there be a search option where you can look up your town name and see people who are in your area otherwise I just find it so hard to use the app when I cannot find anyone near me please please please take these options into consideration as I feel like it would make the app a lot more enjoyable and easy to use.Version: 4.11.3

Can't even sign up.I keep trying differents usernames and it always tells me they are unavailable. Even if I try to put valaiehenwlsishkaoq at the end. Can't create an account..Version: 3.23.1

Don’t get it you’ll get banned for no reason!!I was recently on a live with someone just chatting and out of nowhere my account gets banned. Not just my account I’m banned from the whole app. and for what? I honestly want you guys to tell me why I’ve been banned. I’ve recommended this app to so many people dude. I made people friends. Got people to talk to other people. If you are reading this do not download this app the admins will ban you for no reason. I don’t recommend getting this at all and I will tell everyone else not to get this app either. The customer service is horrible they don’t respond back so don’t waste your time!.Version: 3.5.1

Swipe filters are now locked behind power pack??I’ve been using yubo for a while and it’s really great to make friends and meet people your age especially for teens that have a hard time making friends at school, it’s great for connecting with others. recently however i noticed that swipe filters are now locked behind the power pack which is baffling to me. i’m now getting adults showing up in swipe which makes me very uncomfortable and if swipe filters remain locked behind a paywall i will likely stop using the app. really unfortunate to see.Version: 4.11.10

DiscriminatoryI reached out to customer service recently about my disability. I can’t verify myself, because I can’t see the oval and positioned my face in it. If it was just to take a photo, it would work absolutely fine. However, this verification process is really hard to use, and I wouldn’t be able to do it without help. I still haven’t managed to do it, so please respond to this review, if nothing else. You need to improve your customer service as Well. for context, I am completely blind..Version: 4.11.74

Pay to swipe,In the last update, yubo made it so you had to pay over 30 Canadian dollars/month just so you can set who shows on your swipe, not even a age limit anymore, you can’t choose gender, your country, age. Absolutely horrible, loved the app before, absolutely terrible now..Version: 4.11.10

Nothing against the appWhy is this basically tinder for kids💀😂🤷🏽‍♀️.Version: 3.3.1

New featuresThe coin feature to accept, receive view or send friend requests has ruined this app.Version: 4.11.47

Great app but fix the not being able to add people not near your own ageGreat app love it 👌👌 just we don’t need you to stop us from being able to friend people, say I’m 16 and someone I’m trying to add is 17/18 I can’t add them why? There is no reason for it the app isn’t meant to be for hooking up with people smh it’s for making friends and why should we be limited to who we can send friend requests to it’s just stupid honestly 😂 if you plan on keeping this I’d suggest making it an option in the settings which you can toggle say your 18 and don’t want people younger adding you, you would turn this on but if you didn’t mind them adding, you could turn it off. 3star would’ve been 5star before this stupid update 🤷🏻‍♂️.Version: 3.38.7

STOP TELLING People TO DOWLOAD YOTI I DI REcOMMED THI APPI used to like Yubo it was fun app where you Gould go live and meet people around the world and make new friends and all of suddden they tell you to download weird app called yoti then says your account is blocked until you download I do not recommend this app for my friends or anyone this app will constantly sponsee over and over repeatedly for you to download yoti for no reason then never fixes any report you have against users I don’t know why this app doesn’t do anything right they don’t even watch people who add people who are rude on there they allow people who are disrespectful on there and they don’t do anything then they try to make you pay to see other people who like your profile instead of putting were you can accept like the rest and DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIs APP ITS Scam !!!!!!!and including making people to see who liked them and ‘temporary’ blocking people account until they show who they are this app is not good at all neither is the people who created this app when you report someone they don’t do anything about it the person is still on there this horrible app to download it was good app until they started trying to forced people to download yoti DO NOT DOWNLOAD YUBO ITS TRYING TO HACK PEOPLES ACCOUNTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY ARE FORCING YOU TO DOWNLOAD YOTI DO NOT TRUST YUBO OR YOTI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.Version: 3.55.5

Upsetting.So i mum on the app to make friends due to the fact i have none because they were toxic. so i came on the app hoping there would be decent people and instead of that i get harassed! and they always used the famous line "this is only a dating app".... quite upsetting cause i thought it was an app you can use for making friends as well... i even had threats from guys saying they were gonna come to place and hurt me than go after my partner, although we don't take the threats seriously i find it quite horrible that the yubo team lets them get away with after i reported the chat and the account😔i also add in my bio things like "i am only looking for friends" and it gets removed all the time and it's a breach of their "policy".... so im confused is yubo a dating site or a mixture of making friends and dating ? 😬💀 any how with the threats and harassment i get i will never ever recommend this app whether it's for dating purposes or for friends !.Version: 4.11.3

Really good, just if...I think this is an amazing way to find friends outside of your school and generally become more sociable. I’ve made a few close friends through this, but unfortunately had to face a lot of guys that didn’t have the same intentions as me, as well as a few people only using it to gain followers on Instagram and other social media platforms. Now this isn’t at all the apps fault, just making sure people are aware of that aspect of the app. Ever since I’ve gotten the app I’ve always had problems with notifications, and I’d really like to use this app more but it never sends me notifications, so it makes it quite easy for me to forget about it..Version: 2.97.2

I’d give it 0 stars if I could.I can’t talk to the customer support / it says I’m blocked. I just spent 1 hour setting up a profile and adding tags - which took ages cause of all their options, only to have 0 matches! Like does no one use this app? Or have I been banned randomly like the person who reviewed earlier? What’s going on!!! A waste of time :(.Version: 3.47.4

NOT WORTH ItGot banned, for no apparent reason, got hacked then got banned as soon as I got my account back. Not fair, the support team just keeps reading my messages and not answering me and helping me, what a support team..Version: 3.33.2

I CANT MESSAGE ANYONEI CANT MESSAGE ANYONE !! They cant see my message and i cant see theirs. I tried messaging my friend and he told me he didn’t see anything!! Please fix this im disappointed..Version: 3.33.1

Overall okayHad yubo for a while and overall been a pretty good app for meeting new people and making new friends but I’ve had a couples too. I’m transgender and like to go by a certain name but with yubo you have to use your legal name which I do not like to do. And if you do not you have to confirm your identity. I’ve already been locked from using the app because I used my preferred name as my name on the app and had to change my name periodically so I could be unlocked but I have a suspicion that they will ban me again as I’ve changed my name back. But other than that no problems.Version: 3.47.5

I keep getting locked out, VERY frustratingAfter using it for a few months i once went on the app like i regularly did but it said my account had been locked with no warning just suddenly locked and the only chance i had of getting it back was to download this Yoti app. i tried doing that but it asked for face ID and my birth certificate ect which i felt uncomfortable just giving to a random app so i just deleted my account. i tried making a new one with the same phone number but my new account has been locked out too. so i deleted that one and used my new phone number to sign up..however THAT was locked straight away too. i’ve tried on different devices so i don’t think it’s just my phone bugging but it’s EXTREMELY frustrating. i didn’t even get a reason why it was locked in the first place..Version: 3.51.13

Fake app!This app bring nothing but heart ache and misery. Everyday I go on there just to be myself and to make New friends. But all I get is fat shamed and bullied. With out yubo I think I’d probably be completely alone and talking to the wall like paints drying. You need to understand when you start to ban people from there account actually really think are you banning the right kind of people?🤔 I mean all I do is stick up for myself and I get my account banned. Not many people own I.D to verify there yubo account so I really don’t understand why you ban majority of the peoples un verified account when there always in camera for example.? It’s ridiculous if you ask me and a lot of people. Now you only show the good comments because you don’t want your app looking at its worse. This is the most toxic vile app ever made to talk to strangers. Thought that was illegal anyways? This apps messed up and I think so is the creators. I think you should focus more on the bullying and banning the right people instead of updating the app and making it “LOOK” fun. I think I’ve said enough don’t you? Now fix up!.Version: 3.54.4

BugsTeenage tinder yes, I’ve been on and off the app for years and it was pretty good the new discovery area is great but the price for subscriptions and Yubucks is a bit of a joke and not worth paying for. Also when you start a profile you can complete tasks like tags and bio and then collect Yubucks but everytime I click collect it says error and I don’t get the Yubucks same with when watching ads to earn them. It’s an alright app but the pricing to see profiles and what no is a bit wack (especially when it’s supposed to be teenagers on the app).Version: 4.12.19

IssuesThe current version has a few issues: 1) the matching with people within x distance rarely ever works. - this could be fixed by having an option “only match with people x km away from you” so then I guess a complete search would be completed 2) notifications and messages are a bit delayed and sometimes you get the notification and can’t see the message Suggestions: 1) post match searching, for people with 1000+ friends it is difficult finding people for example if I want to talk to people in a place I’m holidaying why can’t I search my current friends by age, gender and distance. 2) maybe a button which you can click which automatically opens up Snapchat with it being promoted to add that user 3) add distance away from you, not just their city as a lot of the time it is naming such small cities and you don’t really know where it is without googling. Thanks for reading this. I hope you can implement these :).Version: 3.12

I’m baffledI NEVER write reviews but this situation kinda deserves it. For some background I had this app before and got it back just to delete my account but then I got curious and made a new one. I decided to get verified because it would let people know I was real and because I had just got my school ID. I inputted the information CORRECTLY- I’m the right age, my ID photo was in good lighting, my pictures on the account CLEARLY look just like me but 10 minutes later a pop up tells me I need to get verified again and it LOCKS my account. I was in the MIDDLE of a conversation— I was completely lost and confused. I tried to text people but it said they’d been blocked and I couldn’t even use the app properly because of the pop up. I ended up sending in another verification but this time with my learners permit instead of the school ID because it was my ONLY choice. So now I have to wait however long it’s gonna take them to finally realize I’m a real person?🤨AND it could take up to 24 HOURS? It would’ve just been better if I didn’t try to get verified in the first place?? it’s shocking that other people who don’t submit any form of verification get to roam freely while I’m locked because I tried to verify myself… now I know why I deleted the app in the first place 🤷‍♀️ I’ll update if they even let me back on it.Version: 4.11.18

Really Yubo. Really?As if it wasn’t annoying enough having to pay to see who swiped right on you, now you can’t even swipe right on more than 5 girls without them saying you have to share a link on Snapchat, or buy it, or have to wait 15 minutes. This is frustrating. I came on here as a pass time to see/talk to new people and they are just slowly stripping that away. (Keep in mind I did share the link, it got opened and they still didn’t acknowledge the fact that it got open and it still says 0/5 people opened your link). What’s next, you gotta pay to download the app? Jesus Christ were teenagers not adults..Version: 3.42.5

Can’t do anything w/o payingI can barely do anything on the app because i’m not willing or able to pay to get the full experience. it’s ridiculous that you have to pay to see who added you. it makes it 100x more difficult to make friends. it’s especially frustrating that this app would be so awesome without all the rip-offs. there’s so many people my age that are just the right kind of crowd, yet it’s so hard meeting these people when you can’t even see who added you. PLEASE change this. let me see who added me so i can actually meet people, which is supposedly the purpose of this app!! the problem isn’t even that there’s extra things you can buy with real money, it’s the fact that you can ONLY have a satisfying experience by paying a lot of money. i mean, you can’t even earn yubo coins (that allow you to do a lot of things), you have to buy them. my suggestion is that -and this is the least you can do- make it so that you can earn yubo coins by doing certain things, being active, etc. yubo would be an amazing app if it didn’t have so many limits to the free experience..Version: 4.3.2

“Yellow”This app was great until people started using it just to gain nudes. The worst part about it is that most of the people on here are young (under 16) and are getting hassled for pornographic content on here... Plus when they say NO and don’t agree to send the situation ends with bullying, and not by the victim. Please fix this, it is not a great look. Bad rating..Version: 2.70

Pls readThe app was going great until it started blocking me for no reason. They blocked me for having an anonymous profile when the picture was a selfie with my face in clear view, then I tried to change it lots of times and nothing worked. I went to their help site and it was useless, making the app impossible to use anymore and for no valid reason. I logged out and intended to make a new account in the hopes of it not blocking me and because you can only sign in with a phone number and not email (which makes no sense whatsoever there should be an email option) I couldn’t make a new account. So I went back into my blocked account and deleted it so I could create a new one but for some absurd reason it wouldn’t let me use the same number as the DELETED account, meaning I can’t get back into the app and have lost connection with people I care about and I see no way around this issue. I am highly disappointed in the lack of communication with members as all I got was warnings in which you can’t reply to. There is no account to contact with issues making members wrongfully reported with no help. I liked this app a lot until it screwed me over..Version: 3.24.3
