✓ Great Concept Poot executionSo the app itself is great it has good features to connect with people and simple to use interface. The problem is that everything is locked behind a paywall and it’s an expensive one as well. The basic membership is 8 dollar PER WEEK, not month totaling 32 for the whole month. On top of that even when you pay some things still can’t be done often such as posting. It makes you wait about 2 hrs between post even after paying. Also you lose your ability to message people really quickly once you reach your limit if you aren’t paid up. Every update has locked a feature that is essential for talking behind a paywall making this an expensive app to use. Overall I’m going to stop using it which is sad because I highly enjoy this app. They need to do something about the way they set up their paywall..Version: 2.16.3
✓ ReviewEveryone is far far away.Version: 3.0.15
✓ Not able to log in - unfortunately no help providedI liked using friended, but when I tried to log in after log in, nothing worked. I have send so many emails but same template response and no help to log in..Version: 3.0.15
✓ Change to nearby not now!!!!!!!!!How do you change to nearby.Version: 3.0.15
✓ Message limit is horribleI started using this app at a time when I was clinically depressed, I spoke to a lot of people and it helped me gain more confidence and belief in myself. I didn’t realize the good in other people because I only see the worst of people on other apps, and this was my favorite because people felt genuine, and it felt like people actually cared. People were actually positive and nice on here, and whenever someone would open up and be vulnerable, people could be there to encourage and support them. I loved the environment it created. But now with the message limit, nobody messages each other. All you see is the worst of what other people are going through, and the app is much worse, because you couldn’t help people if you wanted to. I think that it took away the strongest point of the entire app, and makes it virtually pointless to ever go on here. I can see that if you could talk to anyone, it would be hard to talk to many people, but I think the limit should at least be raised. I think the best design might be to allow you to talk to a limit on the number of people a day. If you only allow by the number of messages, people will go somewhere else and the app is no better than those that are just friend recommenders for snapchat. It takes away all that I think makes this app unique and the very reason I loved it in the first place..Version: 2.16.8
✓ What a jokeThere’s is no longer any link to open with Facebook and the app won’t let you back on or create another account. You have lost me for good!.Version: 2.21.1
✓ The Tale of A Sinking ShipTldr: Community is and was always great. Toxic management practices have made the app unusable unless you pay them 8 dollars a month to use basic features that were previously free. (I’ve used this app pretty much since its original version and have been apart of the community a long time) They lock off your messages now after a few replies and put a deletion timer on it so that if you don’t pay them and you didn’t get another way to contact the person previously they are just gone. The site has no search feature so you can’t go find them again. They also increased the timer for posting, it use to be about 4 hours or so but now is about 8 hours between being able to post. Unless you pay for their premium version. They also are hard at work removing features and locking them behind a paywall. Such as being able to toggle the people near me switch that use to be a free feature, or the ability to swipe as much as you wanted which also was a free feature from the beginning. They are either about to go under financially and are scraping everything they can to stay afloat or they have nothing but contempt for their user base. The longer you stay the more they push. Like a bad relationship. Ironic, aye friended?.Version: 2.8.2
✓ Updates ehI was a part of the app the last couple years. They’ve moved on from being able to swipe like or no on conversation prompts to just swiping past (which I think is better because you can go back to conversation prompts you accidentally swiped no on). But the contacts and conversational part of the app have taken a hit. The profile section is usable but the notifications and the conversation section makes little sense and constantly prompts you to “guess” about the person you’re chatting with while you’re reading the conversation. Which gets incredibly annoying when you’re not very interested or just trying to read a message. And 1/20 people I’ve talked to has used the feature..Version: 2.12.0
✓ APP SUPPORT!!!! Can Someone Please Contact Me???I would give 5 stars but this new problem is huge!!!! So I’ve had the app for a few weeks now and made some really great connections and some people I now consider my friends. Only problem is now I can’t sign on to my account! I signed up using an email and now it is only prompting to sign in using Facebook. If I did that that would be creating a new account! I don’t want a new account, I want my same account so I can continue conversations with new friends! The developer makes it impossible to contact them! You go on the developer link and it simply takes you to an ad to download the app in the App Store! You click on report an issue and because the app was free I can’t report an issue with Apple! This is my only hope of help which I doubt will work either since they make it so hard to get help. So now not only have I lost contact with new friends I don’t want to continue using the app because I don’t want to have this happen again! Only thing I’m glad about is that I was still on the free version so thanks for helping me decide not to sign up! HEY!!!! APP SUPPORT TEAM::::::::::::::::::::::::::: if you ever actually read reviews can someone please help?.Version: 2.21.0
✓ Shadowbanning rifeI’ve been on this app for over a year. You can meet some interesting people on here and when it’s working it can be great. But the chat has been defective for that entire time, randomly scrolling up many pages, the star button is supposed to be on every post but rarely makes an appearance. And more importantly the conversations you build with someone will one day stop. You’ll wonder why those people aren’t responding any more and why nobody seems to respond to your posts. What will have happened is that the dev’s poorly written algorithm has shadowbanned you. Even though you are paying an expensive subscription and the makers of the app are collecting it, because the algorithm picked up some random word (and if you talk to people you’ll find many have had this issue for no clear reason), you’ve effectively been removed from the app. But you won’t be told that you’ve been removed, the devs will just keep collecting the money. I’ve talked to people that left the app wondering if something was wrong with them because nobody was responding. The devs care more about the money they are making and the than the impact they have on peoples mental health..Version: 2.21.1
✓ I just got on hereBut as I think this is a great site 7.99 a week I can not do sad to say I think ur site is a great idea most of the people thought the pandemic are not going to pay this so I’m I getting the guys that I could be or should be not so sure got on here in 5 seconds 5 friends all not one wa even my type and I’m Not sure even how to use it I was flooded with messages in less than 5 minutes it’s a big turn off especially eight dollars a week a week monthly weekly but thank you anyway it was cool to see the site but I just don’t think even the first five guys that came on within five seconds or even close to being my type.Version: 3.0.14
✓ Don’t see the point of payingCool app. Talked to some nice people. Don’t get why anybody would pay $8/WEEK to: see who views your profile, post whenever you want, send messages, swipe through posts... if the point is to make friends why exploit that in a $32/month commitment? The app has potential but charging people that ridiculous amount of money or even at all just seems to negate the whole purpose of the app. People want to make friends and maybe this is an app for people who are desperate enough for a social life and I don’t mean that so negatively but it just doesn’t seem right. Use your phone to connect with people from around the world but pay to talk to them! Isn’t that the typical layout for a dating site? Facebook doesn’t make you pay to talk to your friends or limit how many posts you can make. I’m sure they can do better..Version: 2.8.5
✓ Lots of people to talk to! (Unfortunately a lot are scammers and extortionists)I like the principle of this app, genuinely. However, I don’t feel you do enough to keep this app PG and it’s constantly infiltrated with nasty scammers. Also, I live in England and everyone on this app is from the states who I’m never likely to meet in my life!. I think you should also impose a filter or possible a strike rule to deter people from giving nasty replies to your personal Q+ A board. This isn’t general social media it’s personal, intimate media that is solely information about you or opinions you have. I hope you take my advice and others on board because this app has potential. But, it’ll go to waste if you don’t make the necessary changes..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Good way to meet new people but..This is a great way to meet new people but to have to pay quite a bit is unnecessary. I was really looking forward to this as I cannot drive due to a disability and therefore feel isolated...Version: 2.14.0
✓ Lots of things don’t work properlySo if I upload a picture from my phone it doesn’t show up at all in the profile. It’ll be listed when I try to edit my photos but doesn’t show at all for anyone who looks at my profile. It only puts up pictures imported from Facebook. I went to settings and clicked into the Help & Support menu to see if this was a known problem with a fix but I didn’t see anything. Try to back out but… there’s no back button programmed into the help section. You have to close the whole app and reenter. Right below the Help & Support option is a “Report an issue” link. This doesn’t function at all. It isn’t clickable. So there’s no actual way to report an issue apparently? I guess the developers aren’t actually interested in having the best version of the their product out there. Then when it comes to using the app, honestly feels kind of pointless. I’m a woman so my inbox is just thirsty men. This isn’t even a dating app but you best believe almost every man on there is using it like one. Yeah you can report people for unwelcome flirtiness, but yeah that’s most of them. And you can only post responses to a prompt, and you can’t remove any parts of or edit a prompt either, so it just feels really rigid..Version: 2.19.0
✓ Virtual Cycle and LimitsI went on the app. few months ago it seemed fun posting conversations starters and meeting people. At first you meet a lot, and then you see only the same faces over and over cycle through the feed…it’s like are there only 50 user on the app? My distance was set to the max. I take a break from the app come back and I don’t see any of the people on my friends list, which is sad. Meet a more random people a couple who seem real and genuine the others are fake as fruit tarts. Then again we have the cycle of the same 20 or 30 people… come on this is the world, so I question the real number of users to bots! I also wonder if some accounts are just staff accounts. I actually paid for the trail to see if this allowed me to interact with more people, seemed like it was less after. What was most disappointing is like what others are complaining about, you suddenly can’t message people and you posts stop appearing or receiving feedback… this is with the free trial that will cost after 7 days! I wrote support, who sent probably the standard response, but blah blah… it’s probably not going to change since I am not the only one who has this issue! So what seems good and could be good, ain’t so good…. Sadly!.Version: 3.0.2
✓ Stopped WorkingI was really enjoying the app. Had met some genuinely cool people & was having some good conversations. After a week of having the app it stopped working. I could send messages or posts but no one could see them. I went from getting 15 responses to 0. Could be that everyone lost interest at the exact same time but I obviously doubt it. I tried to start the free trial, maybe that was the issue. Nope. I deleted & redownload the app multiple times & used different account methods. I really wanted to get in touch with a few of the people I had met on there so it’s very frustrating that no matter how many times I download the app again it won’t allow me to receive responses or even views to my post anymore. I just don’t understand. Hey Timmy & Rhett if you’re out there I miss you man! 🥲😂 I would leave my snap but I personally don’t want random people adding me :( But seriously, I’m genuinely upset. Someone else had the same issue. Please fix this. I’ll definitely try the app again if this is addressed..Version: 2.21.1
✓ EdateNot really impressed with it so far….Version: 3.0.14
✓ Kinda back & forth on this appSo, been using this app a while. Mostly just for fun, because it’s been rather terrible for finding anyone local and they restricted prompts to every 8 hours (paid features to unlock). Now they’ve made good changes where you filter by Now or Nearby for free and post time has been reduced to a 3 hour cooldown. But then they also took away to ability to post prompts as either Friendly or Flirty. I feel that’s a mistake and they should have simply added the ability to make Neutral posts (you could actually do that before by not selecting either Friendly or Flirty, but now all posts are neutral). Having MORE prompt types is better than less. I think the changes will make the app more useful but less fun. Also, I’m kinda running out of useful prompts. One things I wish they would add is the ability to give stars (or a different social currency) for good prompt answers. I don’t always want to respond to a prompt, but want to note the uniqueness or cleverness of someone’s conversation opener. It’s been a novel app, but not sure how much longer I’ll use it..Version: 2.8.8
✓ Terrible age verification (Update)My age on snapchat is above 18 and they won’t even let me provide ID age verification this app is sugar honey iced tea with a capital S. IF YOURE BORN IN 2000 YOU’RE 19. yet they tell me, “you must be 18” yeah i’m sure as hell not gonna pay for your microtransactions if i can’t even get in through the front door. Update: After consulting their “costumer service” or lack there of. they said “Once you indicate that you’re under 18” when all I did was sign in with my snapchat. After they said something so condescending to me, I don’t even have an interest in jumping through hoops to use their app. I have to provide private information such as my ID in order to fix a mistake you chose to make with your arbitrary age verification which can’t even count? atleast Tinder knows 2000’s babies are all 18-19 would give 0/5 stars if it were in my power not only did they waste my time downloading this app but they wasted my time giving me an email trying to blame me for their decision to lock me out, will make sure to tell my friends to steer clear of this useless excuse of an app. the developer response to this will likely be some bs corporate speak, this is why apps like this don’t live long..Version: 2.8.0
✓ No friends until I’m 18I have to be 18 to friends.Version: 2.20.0
✓ It won’t let me loginI’ve had this app for a couple months and forgot about it so I decided to get back on it, I created an icebreaker and went to another app, when I got a couple notifications a minute later I went back on the app only to find that I need to login with my Facebook so I did and it said I do not meet the requirements for the criteria, but I am still getting new notifications from people, I used to love this app because it was the only one I could build my social skills on, I have a very hard time making simple conversation with people and this app helped me get out of my comfort zone and talk to people and it really helped but now I can’t use it so I guess I will stand in silence when people try to talk to me because I don’t know how to respond like a normal human being, If you could make it to where we don’t have to use Facebook to login I would definitely use it again and it would definitely get a five star review instead of one star.Version: 2.2.0
✓ My account stopped workingWould have definitely given this app a 5 star review! I loved it and used it for the past 5 months. Met some pretty awesome people and was enjoying my conversations with my friends. Then out of nowhere my account seems to be blocked. Nobody is getting my messages and no one can see my posts. Last post I made just disappear and says I have to wait and hour to make another one. Very disappointed because my friends probably think I ghosted them or are ignoring them. I have contacted support 3 times with no response, I’ve logged out and back in 15 times, I’ve uninstalled the app and reinstalled it, I’ve updated the app and nothing is fixing it. So frustrated but if I can’t get it to work I’ll just have to end up deleting it. I thought it was a great app while I was able to use it..Version: 2.21.0
✓ Not that goodSo I’m giving this app a 2 star rating. I love the concept of the app and how the prompts make it fun to meet new people, but unfortunately people on there have turned it into a dating / hook up app when this app is only intended to meet new friends. Being a woman , I would only get messages from creepy men who only message to flirt and want to have sex with me. And i barely chatted with any other women ; finding other lady friends is just non existent on there either because they don’t like chatting or just a lot fake / bot accounts. Plus just a lot of rude and negative people overall and not to mention the recent app update just made things worse ; from the app being very glitchy and messing with my profile. So overall , I personally wouldn’t recommend this app to anyone. Especially women , since all you’ll ever find on there are creepy and predatory men who are not up to no good. If you want to find actual good friends , just skip this app and look elsewhere..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Okay App But Beware Of Scammers/FakesCame across the app by chance as I was looking at meeting people due to me struggling every day from the loss of my Mum back in 2013. Thought I’d maybe meet a few people who have also lost their Mum. The app itself is okay, a bit basic, you create your profile and basically just put up posts for others to see, you can see other users posts and profile also, other than that there isn’t much more to do on the app, but I enjoy its simplicity, maybe it needs more though. Now the huge problem in which I didn’t realise until the last week or so, the app is rife with fake people and scammers, you know the pictures of people in uniform and who look like models, they are everywhere on here so if you do get the app then please tread with caution. These scammers spelling is wrong plus they want to go from the app straight onto another then ask for pics/money etc. And they always are looking for love. As far as I know the app isn’t a dating one, just a chance to speak with others etc. Also the scammers will say they love you although you only met seconds before. Okay app though..Version: 2.8.2
✓ GlitchyYou create an account without a password and yet you have to have a password to log in- can’t even change or create a new one smh.Version: 2.16.0
✓ Sometimes Glitchy But The Free Side Is FunI originally signed up about a year ago. I got away from using it for a bit. When I came back there were a few changes to the app. It works fine for the most part on the free side. Sometimes it give an error when trying to send or receive messages. Otherwise the free parts are fine and a good way to meet new people. There are fake profiles, just like a lot of these apps and it would be wonderful to have that put to an end. Now, on to the paid side. Why would anyone want to pay $7.99 a WEEK to use this app in all ways available? There’s not a lot to it to begin with. That’s a steep price! And you have to pay it to connect your other social media. Come on! Just make it free all around. There’s nothing worth paying for on this site so don’t bother..Version: 2.14.0
✓ Don’t download.Giving this two stars because I’m HOPING the friended team will finally SOLVE the issue. I’ve had this app for three weeks, in that three weeks I have been shadow banned three times, for no reason. I did not do anything wrong other than not reply to men because I’m married, and the men flag me in return, the friended app then will make it to where your posts don’t show, your messages won’t send, you also will not receive messages. All of this when you didn’t do anything wrong in the first place. Today I emailed the friended team for the THIRD time to fix this. After two emails they had it working again the last time, BUT within thirty minutes it happened again. I have been mid conversation with good potential friends, and all of the sudden can’t talk to them anymore. I’ve lost my patience with this app and I’m sick of having to email them every other day just so I can use it. I’m giving it the rest of the day to fix AGAIN before I delete and refuse to use this app..Version: 2.21.1
✓ Was hoping for betterI was looking for an app to talk to people and hopefully make a few friends. However, it’s not all that well-managed who replies to whatever innocent thing you put out there. The app gives you little cards where you can enter an opinion and then others who use the app are able to reply to you in private message. Unfortunately like most social media apps there are plenty of extremely unhinged and nasty people out there. I will say that mostly people were fairly kind, but I got a few replies that were utterly disturbing. One reply I received suggested I kill myself. Another commented on how stupid I sound. I did not personally reach out to these people, the app just has strangers reply to random thoughts you put out there on various topics. I wanted a fairly safe place to meet others and to make friends. it seems that it’s not well monitored or controlled who might respond to you. This kind of crap is why I really don’t like social media or use it that much. It’s too bad that in civilized Society people will act this way, but people are people. This is the type of thing that just makes me more cynical about the world and about attempting to make connections with people. Oh well..Version: 2.16.6
✓ UghI love this app! Its entertaining, simple, and people on here like to have actual conversations with you. HOWEVER it randomly just completely stopped working for me?!!?? I can post but I’m getting zero views, I have tried to message people who I have already been talking to and I get no response because they aren’t receiving my messages, I’ve tried posting to my story and it disappears right away.. ive restarted the app, ive restarted my phone, ive tried logging out and back in, ive tried deleting the app and redownloading it, ive tried changing my subscription, and NOTHING. Ive even deleted the app for a couple days hoping it will work again when i get it back.... My app is up to date, i can see everyone else’s posts and thats it. PLEASE FIX THIS! I want this app back!.Version: 2.16.0
✓ AlmostThis is different, this is fun. They dont seem to be greedy, you can message and you get stars for being kind lol Its an easy going atmosphere and your at ease. Heres what is being worked on. When you text or receive an answer the page will flip back to the center of the conversation and u have to scroll down and find your place again. Also, someone text you and the page goes white blank! Turn off your phone and back on. So far thats it. Ive only caught one scammer so far. My rule is, if you get angry when i dont text right back, you” ve got an edge from preasure about money. , you gone jack lol. This one is worth checking out as long as they dont start getting greedy. One site was like 30, then if they reply 15, then something else 30 on and on it was ridiculous.(2: i will respond soon, working ty!).Version: 3.0.13
✓ 12+ app no age filters or verification anyone can lie12+ app u have to be 18 so they’ll all lie and then I see grown ahh people with white hair no verification, no confirmation, this site needs to be monitored anyone grown can talk to someone in a weird way worse to cyber bullying whoever made this app needs to add some age restrictions or filters, let’s just say the app needs a lot of work cause the world already needs a lot of work and this app could add to the worlds problems for parents that don’t check their kids phones or be with them all the time… replied to one person to ask them to help me report this app and deleted it right after I downloaded it cause even they said this app u need to be careful however kids are so pure and are unaware of people who act in unusual ways or ask for unusual questions.Version: 3.0.15
✓ EditsDifficulties to ‘review edit my Profile.Version: 3.0.15
✓ Sign upI can’t sign up. I get to the birthday screen and the continue button does not work. Can you help me sign up please?.Version: 2.16.0
✓ Gets worse every update.Every update they take more features away from you on this app just to lock them behind a pay wall. The only premium feature used to be posting more often, however now any sort of filter setting has been locked behind a pay wall. You used to be able to filter guys and girls, and what kind of posts you wanted to see. You can no longer do that without paying. This app had potential but I can see now that the developers are just getting greedy. People already drop off this app like flies, and the devs are just making it worse. You didn’t “add” features in the new update, all you did was make them cost money. Disappointed in y’all as a whole, you were originally creating something great. Update 4/14: Dev response has turned into “the app just costs money now, deal with it” well I’ll tell you what, your users are dropping off exponentially faster than you can pull them in at this point. Word of mouth is everything, and at this point I’ll recommend tinder to anyone over this app with the direction you are going. Greeding your loyal users, taking features away from us. Used to have faith in you guys, but your recent update just goes to show you are not listening to feedback, and are only in this for a money grab..Version: 2.9.11
✓ 0 stars.This app is seriously the worst. For starters, I connected my Facebook & I was expecting it to bring me to a page where I could customize my profile on the app, but nope it immediately pulled 6 random photos off my Facebook (some that weren’t even of me) & put them on my profile followed by an “ice breaker” asking for “song recommendations”. After that my phone seriously began to shut down because of the millions of notifications coming through to the app because it made this post to literally every single user on the app. So I’m struggling to figure out how to set everything up, all the while my phone is being blown up by notifications. Apparently you can’t add a photo of yourself from your camera roll (only can use Facebook or instagram) & you literally HAVE to have 6 photos. I don’t use my Facebook or instagram so I don’t even have 6 photos on myself on those socials that I could use, therefore I can’t even complete my profile. Also, i can’t delete the post that I didn’t even post in the first place. I ended up just deleting the entire thing because it’s such garbage. Like I’ve never been so infuriated with an app!.Version: 1.4.20
✓ Good concept, bad excecutionI got an ad for this app about how you “talk before seeing pics” and I was really interested, however when I opened it that wasn’t the case at all. The ice breakers themselves are a cute and clever idea but it gives the option to add a background photo which a lot of people just post their usual selfie so you immediately see their face + personality summed in a question/answer. Most of the people on there just talk about sex even though this is listed as a “friend” app, but my true complaint I have the bigger problem overall with is that as a female user I have only gotten guys the last two hours of casual browsing. I am a lesbian, and my account is linked to my Facebook which also states I’m a woman interested in women. There’s no settings to even choose if you find men, women m, or both to talk to. So in the end I just get inboxes filled with guys trying to flirt or ask for sex. Doesn’t help without premium I can’t choose a 2nd icebreaker upon starting to better explain what I’m here for..Version: 1.4.11
✓ The app is not working properly STILLI really enjoy this app and have been on it for about a year. Recently I noticed that I haven’t been getting any views on my posts and people haven’t been able to see my messages/ can’t respond to me. Can someone please assist me because I really enjoy using the app. Thanks! Update: I decided to delete the profile I’ve had for a year because I assumed I was banned for some reason (I never got a notice or anything saying I was flagged or did anything wrong). I created a new login with new information and I’m still unable to talk to people on the app/ get views. This is very frustrating. I have tried going on the site for support but there is no option to contact anyone. I would greatly appreciate help bc I really liked this app. Thanks!.Version: 2.16.1
✓ Black Hole Sucking My Messages?I was having an awesome convo with someone. Suddenly, I stopped receiving messages. I thought “okay, maybe she somehow found out about something I did terrible in the past and she doesn’t want to talk to me”, which was quite optimistic. I didn’t think much of it, so I continued responding to posts and trying to make friends and avoiding guys that are down bad terribly (I’m a guy myself but seriously some of these guys are pathetic considering the name of the app). Anyway I thought the problem was a “me” thing, maybe I’m too ugly and they worry I’ll infect them or something. But, three days go by and I receive nothing??? At this point I’m questioning the app itself cuz ain’t no way on the first day I download this app I start having MULTIPLE convos with MULTIPLE ppl and then I’m suddenly getting ghosted? Like what kind of evil person would create an app called “Friended” when all that’s happening to me are tumbleweeds bouncing across my screen. I’ve tried uninstalling, permanently deleting my account, and using different emails just to hopefully get back into action, psyche. Now I’m here writing a review idk what to star, is this a 1 worthy? I’ll be generous a give a three cuz I did have fun and interesting conversations the first few days. But, if y’all know how to fix this help a bro out..Version: 2.16.3
✓ Free trial? Explain my bank statement.Got the app after Lou talked about it in a video of his and thought I check it out; it was good I suppose, nothing too noteworthy. The posts and landscape somewhat reminded me of Whisper with a huge dose of personality questions and quizzes. I did wander whether or not this was really all that was there. So, I thought maybe it’s just because I don’t have the premium and, like every other app, it advertised a “free trial”. Honestly, I don’t see why anyone would want to get the premium, doesn’t exactly grant you much (or anything really???) A couple of hours later and BAM! Charged $7.99 for a FREE trial on the SAME DAY the trial STARTED. Despite the arguably negligible amount, money is money and according to Google, free (in this sense) means WITHOUT COST OR PAYMENT. Mind you, they advertise this in the app. In addition, I also find that they have the exact week long subscription plan for less than $8! I might as well have actually bought it! Unless you actually want it or don’t care for the loss, do not - I repeat, DO NOT - get the free trial. Finally, I expect an explanation. ASAP..Version: 2.8.0
✓ Renovated TinderNot sure if this is a dating app or not. And it’s kinda funny how it has a 17+ maturity level and you can even report someone on the app for being underaged, but you can’t type cuss words or even some words that aren’t even cusses in the text box because that’s “inappropriate.” Pretty stupid if you ask me. Also, the location feature doesn’t work. If you’re trying to find people near you, it should only do that. Not go from nearest to furthest. There should be a message saying “there are no people in your area” rather than showing me people that are across the country. Other than that, this app is a better tinder in the sense that you don’t even need to match with anyone to talk to them, and you can actually send pictures from the camera to people..Version: 1.4.13
✓ You HAVE to use Facebook is that a joke??It’s 2019. Facebook is dead. Just ask the sheeple still using it, they’ll tell you it’s garbage. So why on earth would you want to force people to set up a profile based on Facebook? Is it because you’re trying to generate use of Facebook? Or is it because you need a convenient way to gather information? I downloaded this app, saw you had to log in with Facebook (I got off of FB over 5 years ago, best decision ever, you should try it) so I came back to read the reviews. Apparently when actual user traffic is high, and you’re female, it’s like thirsty guy city. If you’re a guy, you get attractive females that are paid actors in a sense, basically using marketing tricks to keep the conversation going. Gross. There are people out there that really just want to meet other people. So why do we need in app purchases? I get you need to make money, but isn’t that literally the point of filling your app with ads? I’m not trying to buy friendships. You guys are kinda sick.....Version: 2.6.0
✓ Acct suspended for some false reportThis app is pretty good, I actually met some good people. But my account got suspended over some false report, not sure who to contact to revive my account so… 1 star for that..Version: 2.21.1
✓ Won’t let me use my emailIt says it taken when it can’t be because I have never used this app before, and it won’t let me sign up because my email is connected to everything.Version: 2.14.0
✓ Dont uséCan’t cancel member ship.Version: 2.16.3
✓ Only USAIt’s great if your from America but other than that your stuck not talking to anyone from any other place which is massive down fall. I’m happy to talk to Americans but not literally from there alone.Version: 2.16.6
✓ There is no way to report issuesSince today’s update I have been unable to sign in. No code is being sent to my phone number. I have made attempts to report this but the developer site has no access to communication..Version: 3.0.0
✓ I don’t think I’ll be coming back.I do get that people will be keys, and that you’ll meet people who just sent worth even trying to talk to, and maybe I’ve just gotten super unlucky, but this isn’t a great app as I thought it was. I get that no one will read this, nor care, but I do want to say a few small things Firstly, I’ve downloaded this app 3, Maybe 4 times? I would make a few really good friends, but then as soon as I’d think “I don’t need this app cause I found some people”, those people just get silent, or just don’t want to talk to you anymore. Secondly, I wish something would actually be solved or done about all the hate that happens. I don’t remember a single good conversation where I wasn’t judged ONCE for just saying something. Even in those conversations with “good friends”. I’m pretty dang introverted overall, and this app helped me get over that some, but I don’t think I can honestly say that I want to come back here again after today. Maybe todays just an off day, but I feel like other people don’t deserve to be on an app like this. I think I’m going to go send a written letter to a rock, because that would, without a doubt, 110% be more of an interesting and friendly encounter..Version: 3.0.11
✓ Cool app but-Am I the only one having serious issues with my display photos? No matter how many times I try to change my display pics, the ones I have had previously set up won’t disappear and my newer pics won’t replace the old ones. ALSO my profile picture won’t change. I’ve tried deleting the app and re-downloading it several times to see if maybe it’s just a glitch or what not but NOPE- I’m STILL having this problem and it’s been an issue for months now. I would love to keep this app but my appearance changes so much- almost monthly if I’m being honest. And I would like to make sure my photos reflect my current look and style at the time they’re posted. If this issue can be resolved then other wise this is a great app..Version: 2.8.4
✓ Expensive & difficult to useFirst off, while building your profile, the only way to put pictures on it is through Facebook or Instagram. There was no way to access your actual phone‘s camera to put pictures from your phone into your profile. This really limits your options of how to put images on your profile. Secondly, there’s not a lot of options in the actual application for editing your profile after you get through the initial introduction. Next, the filter options that you select for finding your match, are very buggy. Each time that I tried to filter, the filter failed and had an error and went right back to the default search. Next, the price for this is nearly $30 a month, a little bit high for me, Especially with all the problems with this app. And finally, I find it a bit shady that there’s no way in the application to remove my profile or even hide it..Version: 1.4.10
✓ It's cute but doesn't do what I feel like it should.The idea of the app is great, like a Tinder with substance for friends. The problem is, I think a bunch of guys think that it is Tinder and they missed the substance part. I was hoping that I would create this and be able to connect with people in my area that I actually get to meet up with you in real life. I also thought I might be able to filter it by gender because I don't need more guy friends, I can go to any bar and find some of those. I was really hoping to be able to find female friends that actually have similar interests or something we could bond over. What I found out is that there's no way to filter by area or gender so I'm just getting bombarded with random messages from random guys that I don't know anything about. If I wanted that I would go on Tinder itself. I think a lot of females feel like it's hard to find female friends in this day in age and we are so busy and don't really seem to get out as much, and I feel like this app could help bridge that gap but, the way it's formatted it's not going to do that right now..Version: 1.4.10
✓ Not workingFrance based user. For 6 weeks has a flash screen being launched in August. Tried to log on and it takes me back to log in screen. What’s happening ?.Version: 2.21.0
✓ Got extorted on this appI’m gonna kms.Version: 3.0.11
✓ Horrible app design, lots of botsFirstly, the message limit makes this app unusable. Especially when they don’t even allow a carriage return, which means you either write a run-on message or you burn through your message limit. Basically, they’re trying to force you to pay before you can get anywhere and find out the app isn’t actually worth your money. Also, after playing around with this app for a few weeks, I’m convinced that 90% or more of the users are bots. So you’d have trouble getting anywhere anyway, as if online apps aren’t hard enough. So definitely don’t waste your money on this one when there are already better more mature apps out there. And, be warned if you’re here for friends, a lot of people do think this is a dating app. There is a lot of ambiguity/assumptions the Friended users make and it’s even ambiguous on the app’s own website/advertising. If you’re here for a dating app, there at least five better apps I could name off the top of my head. Don’t waste your time with Friended..Version: 3.0.12
✓ App issues 😕I’m rating this app at ⭐️⭐️⭐️ stars because there’s just two issues that I have with it. I do love❤️ this app it is a great way to connect📱 with people👋🤝. I believe I have rated it at five stars because it was like two days of me having the account and the rating thing kept popping up so now since I’ve had it for a bit longer I’ve just noticed🤓 things that I wish were different. 1️⃣- the count down3️⃣2️⃣1️⃣ of the icebreaker, why do I have to wait two hours🕑🔜🕓 until I can make another post? And 2️⃣-I don’t like how there’s already like a sentence💬🇦🇸 started for me. I want to be able to start🖊 a sentence and finish📝🏁 a sentence in my own words. If it says something that may not relate to me then I don’t know🤷♀️ how I could continue the sentence. I hope whoever sees this understands my #2️⃣ issue and thinks🤔💭 of another way to do that. Thank you! 🙏.Version: 1.4.21
✓ American based appAs an Australian that lives in Australia there isn’t really anybody on friended that’s nearby or within Australia, I feel as if friended is just more for Americans to meet each other irl or online. Wish this app could be more beneficial when selecting the nearby option for people such as myself that lives in Australia to find people that live in the same country, I don’t have a problem with American’s but could this app be a little better if there were more people from Australia as well as Americans?.Version: 2.21.0
✓ 12+ but have to be 18 to use?I’m 14 years old and I thought this app would be great to use to get know people, make friends, etc. And on the app store it says 12+ so I was glad to see that I could use (I searched up LGBT because I wanted to meet people in my community and a lot of it was 17+ and/or a dating app.) So, I tried to make an account with my Facebook, took me to a page that said something along the lines of ‘blocked because it is not available to your country, region, or age.’ I thought I was in the right country and region (U.S.A, AL) and on the App Store it says 12+ so, I didn’t know what the issue was. That didn’t deter me though because there was other ways to sign in without using Facebook. I used my Snapchat, put in my birthday (05 birthday is later this year in 2020), and added a photo. When I clicked like a next button, it says your account has been blocked. Again I was confused because I was over 12 years old. It took me back to the log in screen and when I clicked log in with Snapchat again, it said ‘You Must Be 18 years old or older’ I don’t understand why it has said 12+ throughout the app store for it to be for 18 year olds and older. I’m not using this to be like “Don’T doWNloAd ThIs aPP!1!1!1!” I’m not like that. I wanna know why, and if you could fix that so you don’t confuse others..Version: 2.9.7
✓ It was okay at firstI was sending and receiving messages fine until yesterday, at first I thought nothing of it because messages slow down after a while or people are busy but I usually have at least 11 when I wake up, also I posted something and 24 hours later there was NO views which can’t be possible, I posted again and still no views, It’s either there’s something wrong or my account got silenced without even telling me for no reason, I tried contacting support through app and it didn’t even do anything. I will keep the app for a couple more days because I understand that apps can have issues Also please add a copy paste function I wanted to share my dreams with some people but had to keep typing it out which was a big inconvenience.Version: 2.10.1
