I like the idea of the app and it's potential. The issues I have is that it isn't free to message most people. I signed up for a premium subscription, so I believe I should get free and unlimited messaging no matter who I'm chatting with. Also, there's no distance filter, so that's disappointing. The app needs to incorporate more editing features.

Hello! Thank you for your rate! The app detects your location automatically and shows you the closest members. Communication with popular members requires coins that are bought independently from the membership. Each Message costs 5 Coins. You can chat with other members unlimited with your subscription. Membership gives you a lot of benefits.

The grammar in the app isn't always correct, especially plural forms of words or extra words in sentences that you just wouldn't use; Like it's written by a non native English speaker. It gives me red flags. The location is no where near accurate, the closest ppl I saw were from a town 120+ miles away 😂 there's no way to edit a location, it also doesnt use your GPS location. It's just a poorly developed app. Glootie, you should not have developed this app. It sucks as bad as Jerry.

This is the worst dating app I have ever tried to navigate. I ended up with a completely different area than I live in and cannot change it, number 1. Number 2 you cannot chat without either purchasing a premium membership or coins. False advertising. I tried to purchase the one month to try the unlimited chat feature but, that didn't happen. I paid $30 to be able to do absolutely nothing but look at the same group of profiles over and over. Waste of damn money. Fake App Not contacting Support!!
