* HOW PURE WORKS?

Everything starts with Personal Ads. To see other people in the feed, you need to post your Ad. Write what kind of experience you are looking for and find someone who would share the same experience with you. Be creative and original with your ads, that's always appealing.

* IN PURE ALL BORDERS ARE OPEN

* WHAT HAPPENS IN PURE STAYS IN PURE

Photos self-destruct right after being seen, and in case someone takes a screenshot, you will get a notification about that. Also, all chat messages, including photos and audio, shared in chats cannot be saved to the phone's gallery.

* OUR MISSION IS TO KEEP PURE A PURE EXPERIENCE

Safety of our community is one of our key priorities. We are constantly improving our algorithms to find and get rid of scam and spam accounts, also our system sends automatic alerts on trigger words that might be used by scammers, so don't be surprised in case you will get a warning.

Why charge?

I don’t understand why I have to pay a subscription just to test out the app?! How do you expect people to test it out and see if they enjoy it without having to pay? Atleast tinder gives you some insight of the app before asking you to pay

2026-01-10

User base

Is exhausting

2026-01-09

Do NOT BUY

Garbage app makes it hard to find people. Slow loading shows you people sorted by nearest distance so you are always seeing the same 20 people. Also so far my matches have included two underage girls and there is no verification and people are anonymous. People catfishing and lying. Do not buy this

2026-01-09

banned

literally got banned for zero reason

2026-01-09

Banned for NOTHING

I literally just made my profile and as I was talking to someone, not even sexually, they flagged my acc then banned me. Me thinking it was a mistake I tried to make a new acc with different pics and they banned me again before I could even type the bio lol. I’m guessing it’s bc I look young but if you have facial recognition MAYBE you should ask for ID. This app is dumb asf and so are the mods.

2026-01-09

I tried twice

It's jus not worth it most of its a pay your way through it an the other half your kicked for no reason at all

2026-01-08

Predatory App - Potential Lawsuit

I’ve used this app enough to say that this is an incredibly predatory app that may respect privacy, but is incredibly predatory. They charge men to access the app and then to also send messages (amongst other random features - everything is ‘a la carte’ which is nice, but none of it applies to women - who I don’t think pay to even access the app. And most of the accounts are fake anyways. Using the call feature - you only get connecting with folks 1k miles away… stay away fellas.

5 Star First Impression

I never considered this app at first but all the recent bad reviews made me get it. Why? Because the developers replied to each one and seemed to address their concerns each time. That was so refreshing to see.

Love the art style and *love* the scrolling style (no annoying swipe left swipe backwards oops you’re stupid and missed the match of your life give us $50 and maybe we’ll let you see them again). You scroll down a well designed list, no stress or mistakes.

I’m in a big city so I don’t struggle finding people nearby. A few fake accounts but so obvious with the AI pics or heavy typos in their bio. If you have any experience on these apps, there’s fake profiles on each one it’s really not a concern.

You can sort without paying for premium, I don’t have to sort through people who want long term when I don’t. You can see who liked you without paying for premium. That’s amazing and I love that. Developers seem to forget your app needs to not blow if you want people to pay for premium and seeing who liked you is a usually a paywalled featured these days.

So my initial experience is great after a couple days of using it! Actually currently the least stressful app I use simply because there’s no pressure to lose a match just because I wasn’t feeling confident when they first popped up. Hoping for continued good vibes.

2026-01-08

-5 stars

So, tell me why I have to pay to even use the app? I go through all the settings and effort to set up my account and then I can’t even use the app without paying 14.99 a week? Get bent. Also, I look it up on google (and this is just according to google) “ No, the PURE dating app isn't entirely free;it's free for women but requires men to pay for subscriptions to access features, though they often get short free trials or discounts, while women have full free access but still see ads for add-ons, according to this review by BestReviews. Men must pay to post "ads" and contact people, with costs varying by subscription length, but the app also pushes extra in-app purchases, as noted on Trustpilot” this is BS. If men are apparently the problem, why aren’t you doing a better job to protect everyone else on YOUR APP. Disgusting behavior

2026-01-08

Cool app but not worth it

It’s a complete scam… yea it anonymous and all but tryna make friends and it’s a problem because I was being honest and they restricted my acct😒

2026-01-07

Roll The Dice! 🎲 YES!!

I LOVE this app so far it’s SO interactive!!! LOOOOVE THE DICE!!!!

Other apps where you just sit there and swipe all day is so NOT IT!

Whoever invented the dice let me tell you baby— it truly breaks the ice!!! (As long as you know how to hold a conversation of course)

Love love love rolling the dice pure genius!!! As you can already tell it’s my favorite feature in the app ! A PURE conversation at that —😉 PUN INTENDED!!!!

2026-01-07

Serious banning issue

i literally downloaded the app like 5 minutes ago tried to make an account. I wasn’t even finished making it and got banned. Don’t get this app. I did not do anything to get banned, I find this absolutely ridiculous

2026-01-06

STD central

This app is literally encouraging reckless behavior. A lot of people are going to get STDs.

2026-01-05

Worse than tinder

Loved this app but got banned for no reason lol

2026-01-05

Time limit for bans?

Can there please be like a one year time limit or a fee to get unbanned? I love this app i miss it🙏🏾💔

2026-01-05

Payment

They make you have to pay lame

2026-01-05

Banned for no reason?

I made my account and in the middle of making my account I got banned with no reason ? I didn’t say anything inappropriate used my own photos nothing inappropriate made no sense!

2026-01-05

Bad app

Its bs! You gotta pay to interact with people a gimmick ya running

2026-01-04

They ban you for no reason

I wouldn’t give a single reason why and it bans pure from my phone so personally I think it’s a sucky app for meetups

2026-01-04

SCAM

don’t buy

2026-01-04

Needs work.

I really enjoyed my time on this app, but they really need to work on their moderation. I’ve seen and heard multiple people talking about how they

got banned for things that either don’t break TOS or were never mentioned in TOS. The same thing happened to me, and after emailing them twice I’ve gotten no response. Very poor customer service.

2026-01-03

Do not use!

If you are a guy do not use this app, there are literally no free option to see what is out there and the moment they want you to post an “Ad” you have to pay just to even look at what’s out there in your area. The whole thing is set up to steal your money, don’t do it. Not worth it especially for $13 a week starting off. And don’t get me started on the whole algo they have basically trying to get you to spend more.

2026-01-03

No one is really on there

Fake app fake reviews fake everything

2026-01-03

Doesn’t work unless you pay

Immediate pay wall upon making account. Unless you want to pay 60$ this app is useless

2026-01-02

Same people are showing, not much variety. Matching doesn’t work.

Seems like there are very few users. Also some of the interface is not intuitive. Why do I “match” with so many people who I’ve liked after just joining the app? But after matching they aren’t listed anywhere.

2026-01-02

Banned for no reason

followed all the rules, had such a wonderful time, and got banned for “soliciting”, which I have never done. Moderators “double checked” which is absolute BS. Be warned if you use this app, and make sure to get people’s contact information and move off of it ASAP. Lost a lot of good connections :(

2026-01-02

Scam app

Truly a garbage app, you can’t use any features, or make any matches, or even have a profile without paying for a subscription. This app is obviously a scam taking advantage of people with unconventional interests.

2026-01-02

Confused

Idk if I am slow or what but how do you start swiping or do I have to pay to unlock that part plz help

2026-01-01

Just no

Its too much

2026-01-01

Met my bf in two hours

I didn’t think much of this app bc it was so new. I got my first message within two hours and we went on a date the next day. That date lasted two weeks lol.

;) had to delete bc I found someone great

2025-12-31

Remove this from the App Store.

This app is so horrible. I can’t even begin to tell you the amount of bots and scammers on here and how glitchy it is you’re literally spend a total of five minutes within 30 minutes of just glitching screens.

2025-12-31

Biggggg problem

Ima be real this would be no stars cuz why do you think ima spend 60 to talk to someone and I just made a profile and haven’t even got to see the app yet and I’m already asked to spend money

2025-12-30

Pay wall

I’m one more app that just scams money from people

2025-12-30

Banned for no reason

They have bots 🤖 something flagged their guidelines obviously.. but I see more and more people saying they’ve been banned and lost connections. They ban you without reason . I go and read the guidelines carefully and literally nothing I did lined up with suspension of the account .. they allow people

To send inappropriate pics unannounced who accounts weren’t banned lol. Do better

2025-12-30

Avoid

The user interface is appealing at first glance, but once you start interacting with that, it’s extremely buggy and there’s so many bots on there. Customer service is non-existent I’ve experienced it for myself and the moment you put yourself on there guys are reporting you because you don’t send them nudes. It’s kind of crazy and I guess these other reviews are right.

2025-12-30

Great app and great potential

Im a woman I should say, I here the men’s experience is not as good (have to pay etc) but I generally like the app and think it works well and I like the features it has

Timed chat to force convos to happen to see if people are actually interested. True Photos conceptually should be in ALL dating apps!

What lacks is not enough users (that’s just going to hallen over time) and a better distance function. The buffers are nice but let me actually specify with a range

2025-12-30

Banned.

I had made real connections with ppl. And they banned me I won’t ever get to tell them ppl it not my fault or that i didn’t just get up and ghost them. My feelings are soooo unbelievably hurt. THIS IS YANI IF ANYONE EVER SEES THIS 😛💔

2025-12-30

Banned

Really enjoyed the app but you get banned so easily

2025-12-30

Get banned for no reason

I was banned and when I asked why they first told me because I “looked under 18”. After sending them my ID, they then told me it was because i apparently solicited a user for a sugar baby relationship when the user had asked me in the first place for that kind of arrangement. Seriously ridiculous situation and behavior from the person running the app.

2025-12-30

Don’t download.

Pure is a total waste of time girlies. More than half the guys are creeps who report you for not sending nudes. And the other half are scammers asking for your bank details. Customer service? Nonexistent. Save yourself a headache avoid this app like it’s the plague. There are better ways to meet people that don’t leave you feeling like you’ve wasted your time and data. Also, they collect your photos and all of your personal information and sell it read their user agreement.

2025-12-30

Total Scam, Stay Away!!

Absolute waste of time and money. Total money grab with zero results. Save you cash and sanity - avoid Pure completely. It is deliberately designed to frustrate and empty your wallet.

2025-12-29

Scam/fraud

You must pay to search. After you pay you still can not message anyone unless they like you. Not worth 30 dollars. This is a scam, I have requested a refund from the company and the App Store. The companies customer service seems to be trained in gaslighting their customers and refuse to provide information of their management or themselves so you can’t file a complaint easily. This is the worst company in general I’ve ever had an experience with.

2025-12-29

not free

To post an “ad”, the only way to engage in matching that all other apps provide, you are forced to pay a fee. I’m not paying $14 for a week’s worth of ad on an app that has about half the ratings of an app like HUD or even 3fun, both of which barely have anyone within a 100 mile radius. Cool aesthetic but literal paywalled content for a less popular app.

2025-12-29

Garbage

You have to pay for this garbage to use it once you get everything setup. Gigantic ripoff.

2025-12-29

This app is a fraud

There are no real profiles on this app. Just a scam app for money

2025-12-29

Not one match

Fake!! Save your money

2025-12-29

Guys , dont do it

App is full of mostly taken women looking for other women , and the ones that are in to guys will like you back but never respond. This is after a full week. The chats just dissipate. Other than the fact that guys have to pay to even use the app , it just doesn’t seem like many people who have an account here are active. Mostly profiles that say “ seen a few days ago “ and it’s stayed that way, seems like guys and girls are sick of this trash dating app. Just don’t do it , stick to tinder.

2025-12-29

Couldn’t be more trash

2025-12-29

“Error, something went wrong”

Been off the app for a year, come back, and can’t login or do anything

2025-11-28

Stay away from this app

Was looking for a good dating app, found some stumbled across this one. Had some decent reviews so I thought I’d give it a look over. Once I set up my profile, I found out I had to pay to post my ‘ad’. Searched online to see if this was right and, sure enough you have to pay. Well that is if you’re a man or non-binary, but women get to use it for free. For something that is supposed to be about inclusivity, that’s not very inclusive to make non-binary and male individuals pay for their accounts while letting women use it for free. I wouldn’t be so upset if everyone had to pay to use it because that’s equal, but when you make certain individuals pay, but not others, that’s discrimination. If men got to use it for free and women had to pay it would be labeled as sexist. I get it’s likely to protect against possible trafficking, but there are people who could easily pay that and still traffic people. I would also give a 90% likelihood that if I had paid for my account, over 50% of the accounts I would come across would be bots. So, in short, coming from a liberal man, this app is a sexist scam.

2025-10-25

Random charges

Update - they blocked me with no explanation and then tried to backpedal about the reason being policy being violated, while still not addressing the question or trying to resolve the issue without having me purchase in app functions. Terrible app.

I’ve had various issues with the app since downloading and have kept it because it can still be fun to use. Recently I’ve been charged twice for add ons that I didn’t purchase. To their credit, their team responded to my message quickly, but basically told me I couldn’t be right about being charged for something I didn’t purchase because they “don’t charge any item out of nowhere” - and then validating with incorrect information about my account status. Instead of immediately saying they’d check for any system issues, or even to suggests I check to see if anyone’s could have access to my phone, their response was basically telling me there’s no way they could have done anything wrong, and then providing incorrect info about my account to validate it. So on top of charging me more than once for features I did not purchase - For an app that’s meant to provide a safe space to be open, it’s really disappointing and dismissive how they address users who have concerns.

2025-09-15

Strange, and Waste of Time

I have been on this app for a couple of months now, and I verified my photo and thought it was a unique app that allowed someone to be discreet as well as try to flirt or meet with others in your area. However, they tell you that you can chat and basically use explicit language when you’re sending messages back-and-forth to other people that like you, and they promote this as being a safer way to message instead of texting. however, there is a no warning system, and you will be banned if someone flags your messages because you’re unable to respond right away or they feel that you’re ignoring them, they will ban you and it’s basically a waste of time. I personally would not invest any time if you’re trying to meet somebody on this app, I would look at your other dating profile options that are more trusted, as this will just waste your time because no one on this app is looking to hang out with anybody. They’re just looking to kill time and send dirty messages back-and-forth. Do not waste your money if they do ask you for money. hope this helps.

2025-08-21

Good idea, Needs better communication

I really enjoyed Pure at first and honestly would have recommended it the app is fun, unique, and has a lot of potential. After a couple of days, though, I was banned. I can accept that, but I decided to reach out to support because I genuinely didn’t believe I had done anything to intentionally break the rules. The initial response left me more confused than anything, so I explained my side that what I did was completely consensual, harmless, and with good intentions. Instead of clarity, the next reply I got felt unnecessarily rude and dismissive.

That part was disappointing, because if I had truly done something wrong, I would have taken full responsibility. What I wanted was a better understanding, not to argue my way back in. After checking other reviews, it seems like I’m not alone a lot of users have had similar experiences with quick bans and poor communication from support. It’s frustrating, because the app itself is really enjoyable and could be amazing with a few improvements. Clearer guidelines, kinder communication, and more understanding in how bans are handled would go a long way. Until then, I can’t fully recommend it

2025-08-12

TRUTH

To be honest I’ve never written a review but I absolutely love this app it has come through for me over seven times and 21 so it’s fantastic it’s worth the money I can’t buy over the big problem I have is how easily they ban people I’ve been talking to a couple people that I am sure are real and they randomly get banned because people keep reporting them unfortunately this leads me to lose connections that I just started to make like the one I lost just now causing me to write this i’ve seen people complained about the band system before luckily I haven’t had any problems with it myself other than losing those connections if there could be an option to allow people who want to stay in contact with the band people to continue to but take them off of public profiles that would be fantastic. As in allowing private messages to people that accept them but not allow them to browse new profiles or anything. Just saying. Great app though guys thanks.

2025-08-12

giving 5 stars to be seen but is going to change it soon to 1. (now changed to 1 wish I could give 0

I had a frustrating experience with Pure, especially since it was only my second day using the platform. I was trying to help another user by sharing some advice about cash transfer apps like Cash App and Venmo when I was unexpectedly banned for it. This felt incredibly disheartening, as I was simply trying to contribute positively to the community.

What’s even more troubling is that while I was trying to offer guidance, I noticed several profiles on the app that raised significant red flags. There were users with “+teens” in their bios, and one profile even explicitly stated something about “Loving younger subs.” It’s concerning that the platform allows such questionable content while penalizing users for attempting to engage in helpful discussions.

It seems overly strict to penalize someone for offering guidance, especially when there are individuals on the app whose profiles promote inappropriate behavior. I hope Pure reconsiders its policies to create a safer and more supportive environment, where users can interact without fear of being banned for trying to help, while also taking action against those who violate community standards.

2025-07-24

Banned for what

5 stars because they don’t allow 1 stars

I got banned for saying I’m looking for true love and passion and that if someone watches content featuring women who aren’t of my racial background, they’re probably not going to be into me.

That comment was seen as offensive, but it comes from a real and painful experience: being a woman of color and feeling like you’re only seen as a placeholder someone to warm the bed until they find the woman they really want. You feel neglected, disrespected, and then discarded.

They claim their “finely tuned algorithm” can detect harmful content but can it detect context? Intent? Empathy? Social and cultural nuance? Apparently not.

Let’s be honest: this app seems built for white users. If you’re a minority especially someone who’s been objectified, fetishized, or treated as “easy” or less desirable this platform will likely leave you feeling isolated, unseen, and used.

They’ll say I’m exaggerating, but the bias is real. Just look at users openly saying things like “(insert race) to the front of the line.”

Let’s be real: the moderators are probably white too. They don’t get how deeply this stuff cuts. They’ll enjoy their privilege of being socially unaware and getting paid for it.

If you’re a minority woman who’s okay being treated like a fleshlight used while he fantasizes about white women then sure, this app might work for you.

Looks great, not for those seeking IRL.

This app has surprisingly attractive graphics throughout. It’s fairly easy to get used to after a few days. The commitment to the theme is fun, but in some places it’s hard to understand - I had to google it to understand that “pure queen” is this apps version of a premium subscription. Would be helpful if that was more apparent in app. For the first two weeks, your pure queen subscription is complimentary. Lots of messages, lots of likes, very little follow through. After the free trial concludes, it slows down a bit, but more of the same: no follow through. Lots of faceless men who only want your nudes. I’m also not of a fan of this app (and most other apps, let’s face it) making it so simple for men to circumvent your consent with a premium subscription. Multiple times I had to “swipe left” on someone, deny their message twice, leave their instant chat, and finally block them to show that I wasn’t interested. All in all, I deleted my account. The app is designed aesthetically well and operates okay. It’s not on the designers that the men using it are subpar. Oh well.

2025-06-05

One of the best advertisement simulators ever.

There's lots of amazing ad simulators out there so what makes this one so special? Well on those apps after you pay to use them the ads go away. But not on this gem! On this one, after you pay for privilege of using the app....the advertisements keep coming! It's seriously genius. Pop-ups, banners, and prompts that never, ever, ever, ever stop. Thanks Pure! You really raised the bar with this one!!

Edit: Don't trust their response. They have endless ads selling and advertising their in-app add-ons and bonuses. They're annoying and in every part of the app. There's an ad that pops up from bottom and interferes with your navigation in the most annoying way possible. On one section there's banner ads stacked 4 deep. Meaning you have to tap a tiny "X" four separate times to remove the annoying banners. Do they remain closed for the rest of your session? No. They come back after a little while. The point I'm trying to make is that paying a premium to use the app isn't enough. Because after you pay you're still subjected to a constant stream of tiny hands asking for more money all over the app.

Like I said originally. One of the best ad simulators ever!!!

UNFAIR BANS (rating 5 stars to be seen)

I’ve been on and off this app for the last 5-6 years (off when in relationship) and never had an issue. However, I have been accused of by matches of being a bot or asking for money, but redeemed that by sending TRUE PHOTOS. I decided to cut out that repetitive conversation, so I clarified in my bio that I am NOT looking for sugar daddies/babies or looking for monetary gain. Immediately after hitting “publish”, I got banned.

I emailed the Pure feedback team per suggestion, asking for clarity/reason for ban and to get my account back as I did not violate guidelines to my knowledge and the team responded with “We do not give away the exact reason or situation so that you don't get upset with anyone in particular but we can only suggest you read our guidelines more accurately to see where you have violated the rules.” To add on, they ended the email very rude by stating, “you lose. So, for now, that's a goodbye.”

It feels like women are being targeted for bans because we don’t have to pay any subscription. At that point, you guys should be charging EVERYONE to use the app to really create the “safer environment” you claim to create. Using that logic, I kept seeing fraud accounts I reported, making me feel very not safe. Do better, Pure.

Terrible

They will ban you for absolutely no reason and when you contact them they don’t even tell you why. I signed up and tried to publish in the feed, but got banned immediately. I had contacted support and after verifying myself in email the ban was lifted. I deleted the account, but recently decided to come back. I’ve been having issues with the account and had issues with scammers on the app. So since I was getting annoyed I decided to delete account and just make a complete new one with a new email to start fresh. Again after setting everything up and trying to publish I was banned. Nowhere in there guidelines stated I can’t make a new account. It says that if my old account was terminated by them I would have to get permission, but they never terminated my account I was the one that did it. Their system is extremely flawed

HARM TO ANIMALS!!!!

This app allows its users to send disturbing pictures of harm coming to animals. Not long after matching with another user from the app, I was sent a disturbing image depicting harm coming to an animal. Obviously I reported it immediately, but when I couldn’t find any way to talk to an actual person, I also called Apple Support and reported it there as well. My account was frozen and subsequently banned immediately following my report to Apple Support. Additionally, the rating and review I had written about this experience—this review—was either removed or prevented from being published. This app clearly does not have adequate safety measures in place which puts all of its users at risk. Strongly advise against using this app until they can secure better quality control measures. To do otherwise is to put yourself at risk to receive similar suspect content or possibly even worse content. This review is all I can do to right the wrong that was done to me and worse still, that poor lil creature. 😢 I hope it will serve as a warning to others that they might avoid having to go through what I just went through. Please insist app developers utilize the most thorough up to date software, so that these sick people will stop getting the publicity they so desperately want. Please, please, help. 😞

confused and annyoned

I’m giving a 5 star review because I genuinely enjoyed this app but their banning process is very ridiculous. I was shown this app by a friend and decided to check it out. It was really fun and I was enjoying my time. I changed my bio and was immediately suspended and then banned. After rereading the terms and conditions of the app, what i was banned for was not explicitly in there. I was told that my account was reviewed but after reading all these reviews of people being banned i don’t think that it actually was. I think they just ban anyone’s account that their algorithm flags. It’s just a little upsetting that they can immediately ban you with no appeals process like any other app so anyone you were communicating with is just gone. I know i’m gonna get the same cookie cutter response to my review but I just wanted to be honest about my experience.

SCAM: FREE TO USE FOR WOMEN ONLY! MEN HAVE TO PAY TO USE!

I’m telling you now so that you don’t waste your time. If you’re a male, go ahead and find another app. This app is free to use for women but is a HUGE paywall for men. If you’re a man you can’t do anything on this app without paying first. There’s no trial, there’s no seeing if you like the app first, nothing. Now add this review with the fact that there’s several other reviews stating the app is full of bot accounts and you’ll see how this Pure app is just a “pure” scam. Again, DONT WASTE YOUR TIME MEN! FIND ANOTHER APP that DOESNT DISCRIMINATE AGAINST YOU!

**Update after developer response**: just to reiterate- If you are a male, don’t waste your time signing up for the app and creating a profile. You won’t be able to do ANYTHING on the app without paying FIRST. The developer response speaks about an optional “premium” service for women to use but fails to acknowledge the fact that women are allowed to use the app for free in the first place without being forced to pay for anything!

MEN: DO NOT DOWNLOAD! DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. THERE ARE OTHER DATING APPS THAT WILL ALLOW YOU USE TO USE THEIR PLATFORM FOR FREE AND GIVE YOU THE **OPTION** TO PAY FOR A PREMIUM SERVICE IF YOU WANT TO.

Unjust Bans, Zero Transparency, and Horrible Support

If you want to waste your time, get banned for no reason, and have your personal data held hostage, Pure is the perfect app for you. I’m leaving this under five stars because it seems like the only way these money-hungry, data-breaching, immoral, and condescending scammers will pay attention is by feeding their fake ego. Maybe then this review won’t get buried with all the others calling out their dishonesty and terrible practices.

I downloaded Pure and used it for less than 24 hours. My profile was basic and respectful — a simple bio, appropriate descriptions, and conservative photos. Despite this, my account was banned with zero explanation. Their support team refuses to provide a reason, claiming vague “violations” without offering any proof or clarity. Meanwhile, users sending unsolicited explicit content are allowed to stay active.

The customer service is dismissive and unhelpful. They don’t care about fairness, transparency, or your experience — they just ban accounts indiscriminately and refuse to acknowledge mistakes.

This app claims to be “open-minded” and “safe,” but in reality, they have a flawed moderation system and terrible support. They’ll happily collect your data, ban you without cause, and then leave you in the dark.

Don’t waste your time, energy, or personal information on Pure. There are better, safer options out there.

Horrible App

Yet another money hungry dating app. This is EXACTLY why I say online dating is dead. I've only been in the PURE app for 5 minutes, having only created and set up my profile, and I can't do ANYTHING. Literally everything in the app is behind a paywall, which isn't saying much because the app only has a couple features. You create a bio about yourself and can choose to post it as an ad for others to see, which I assume is supposed to set you up for dates. The problem is, to post an ad, you have to pay one of their ridiculous prices. Also, they have a roll the dice feature which is supposed to set you up with some random person through audio chat. I don't know how it works because it's locked behind a paywall. I swear, companies like this NEED to go out of business or realize that online dating should not be this complicated. Please, for anyone reading this drawn out review, don't use this app, even if you're desperate. Just go out in public and take a chance because apps like this give dating a horrible name.

Not worth it

Pure is a scam for men. My aunt told me about the app and to try it out. I made an account and checked it out but the app isn’t free. The app requires a man to pay either a yearly, monthly, or weekly plan to participate, the only thing free is setting up your account. No talking to anyone and no exploring what the app has to offer. I figured something was off so I spoke to my aunt to see what could be the issue. When I told my aunt the app was not free as she said it was she redownloaded the app to show me. She then did the procedure and realized the app is free for women.

The app does indeed take advantage of straight men making straight men pay. Then pay for flowers to send to people of interest. Women don’t have to worry about that issue. I think the main reason for this is because the male audience is far larger on Pure than the females.

So if your looking for a dating/hookup app and don’t want to spend on it, don’t bother. Or say your a woman idk. If your willing to pay feel free, I doubt you’ll find much success and your bound to spend a lot just to speak to women. So good luck I guess.

2024-11-26

Banned by bots

This app feels like Bots are just looking for keywords and no context is being looked at when they ban you. I reread the guidelines and one of them states even if something is unintentional- it counts against you lol as long as you can trick the bots monitoring- your account is safe - I come to this conclusion because of how many men actually put their private parts as their main ad pic but because it “doesn’t look like it” their account is up and running ! If the guidelines truly mattered and real people actually monitored then you wouldn’t see ads running using numbers as letters to form inappropriate words or emojis used in certain sexual context. Just further proof the context of the ads are not actually looked at and it’s only certain things that trigger whatever automated system they use to ban you. At first I was disappointed to be banned because it felt unjust especially cause this app at first was trying to make it seem like they were about safety and boundaries and respect- but taking all the above into consideration- it makes sense why/how they band. It feels like a false sense of protection they are trying to provide and it’s meant to work for them NOT us.

Extremely dissatisfied

I downloaded this app 4 days ago it was great I found someone who we clicked immediately and everything was great until tonight as I’m writing this review I had found some stuff on Instagram that I thought we would enjoy so I tried sending him the link to it, but I couldn’t so I just did a screen recording of it like we started talking about it and like maybe we should get something like that because we are getting pretty serious and started looking for stuff and I was sending him pictures of stuff that I liked and what not and then I get banned and back and is like oh I’m sorry everything safe, but just let them do their job and you know the un your account about an hour goes by I messaged the people on Pure in the app and I get a message saying that my account has been banned indefinitely because I was asking for basically asking for money and return for sexual favors, but that was not the case we were just looking at stuff and we were talking about me coming to visit him so we were looking at prices for like flights and what not but I got banned and on top of it. They never told me that that was against the rules when I signed up for it, so I just want everyone to know that you do this just make sure that you filtered it and I mean hopefully they will see this and they will un ban my account because I did explain to them what we were doing, but they didn’t wanna hear it from me so that is my honest review

2024-10-01

Disappointed

Only rating it 5 stars to get the attention of the developers. This was a wholeheartedly genuine mistake. So I’m a little upset with the way this has been handled. I got banned for using a trigger word in my ad and straight off the bat got banned. It should’ve gave me a warning per what the description says but I didn’t get one. Seriously disappointed. I emailed their support team to try an appeal my ban on my account and get slapped with a copy and paste email. Honestly very frustrating and you just run circle around this. It’s very devastating giving the fact that I had some real good genuine connections with some people on here and pure has a great way of keeping it safe which is why I enjoyed it. Never thought I’d get booted off for something so minor. Note **** How was my case a VALID reason to get banned. for what this app is for, creating that honest mistake and not getting a second chance feels discriminative. Id like to request a supervisor or someone other than a copy and paste response.

2024-08-19

Terrible App

Got banned because I was making a joke with someone about girls who go on dating apps linking their “onlybean” literally I didn’t even say the company name and it got me banned. What a complete waste of time. I’ve also found that many other hookup/dating apps are the same way in that they ban and block for no reason. It’s so dumb. At least if you’re gonna do that, make your customer support more responsive and correct your mistakes.

Edit- After receiving that copy paste response from them I still feel the same way about this app lol. Also a future suggestion for apps like this. Instead of just banning and forcing people to figure out why they were banned, how about emailing the user and let them know why exactly they were banned. Also to ban someone for something that was so obviously a joke is kinda trash. Especially for a dating/hookup app where the purpose is to connect users. Like fine I get that you don’t like scammers but still didn’t justify banning someone who obviously wasn’t one.

On a positive note I did make a friend off this app and he noticed I got silenced and had seen that issue with other women on the app. We found a way to stay in contact outside the app which was pretty wholesome and nice. I definitely will not be recommending pure tho in the future.

Paying customer here

I have been a paying customer for about a year and here’s what I’ve found. This app worked well until one day I started getting zero matches. Magically over night my pics and ad that had worked stopped. I freshen things up and nothing. Customer service is via chat and they just tell you to read the FAQ which is pretty useless. Here are more things

1. Unlike other apps once you “like” someone they stay in your feed, this means you have to scroll past them everytime looking for new people and after 24hrs or of they update their ad it resets so you either like them again or clear them from you feed only for the cycle to start over again. I’m sure they do this to make it look like there are more people than there actually are

2 there are very few girls on here and the ones that are on here are either; overwhelmed by guys, fakes, flakes, trans people, O.F. Or selling themselves

3. Expect to be ghosted. I’ve gotten really good at spotting the ones that are “too good to be true” you’ll be chatting and it’s time to video or voice and they’ll ghost

4 I have met up with a number of real girls - some were actually hot but all of them have been some level of messed up obviously this is not an app to meet someone you’d take home to meet your family or friends.

5. Expect a lottttt of talk but very little action if you’re a guy even one with rizz and in a city.

All in all I won’t be renewing :)

2023-09-22

Just disappointing all around

I thought this might be fun to try but the amount of heterosexual straight men who make up the clientele of this app is laughable/gross. About 65% will openly show interest in you even if there are no kinks shared between you two just to waste your time and try to get you to be into something that is inherently not at all a kink for you. There is also an ENORMOUS amount of men on the app who claim they are ‘dominant’ when in reality they just want to control others bodies, rather than be respectful doms. About half of the men’s profiles I scrolled through say “they are rubbing it right now” or “hard right now” whilst they are scrolling through the app just looking at people. Ew. Many ask for sex on demand whether it be in their public bio or once a chat starts. There’s a huge amount of married people cheating on their partners and many of the women who are ‘single’ are actually couples who are unicorn hunters even though there is a couple feature. This app has become akin to those pop up ads from illegal websites that claim ‘Sex near you now!’ Gross. This app would be much better if they limits the amount of heterosexual men and then monitored how people behaved. For example, if you like someone’s profile, but you have no kinks in common there should be a message reminding you not to waste people’s time and to focus on finding something that you are actually interested in rather than pushing your kinks onto someone else.

Great idea, Bad execution

I like the idea of this app, but the execution is pretty bad. There is almost no one on there anywhere near you. When seeking women for women, it’s full of guys looking for bisexual girls because they don’t want to have to pay for the app on their side. Then when I bring up how guys lying frustrates me, it’s my fault because “you can just leave the conversation” or “go use one of the lesbian apps” like that makes lying about your gender just to find a hookup ok 🙄

Edit: I love how I get banned from the app because I called a guy rude and a liar for making a profile on women seeking women. This app is trash!

Edit #2 Response to Dev: My review is a few years old, you only replied because I changed it to 5 stars so it wouldn’t be buried under the fake reviews. My incident happened over 2 years ago and now you ask for my info to resolve? No thank you. There are not enough people and most of the “women” are just men trying to get around the paywall. Again, fantastic idea, awful execution, trash app.

Terrible Customer Support, Wrongfully Suspended

I am honestly very upset and disappointed that I have to share the terrible experience I have had with this app. I have been on the app for a while and I really liked the app. Recently, I have been revoked access from my account and told that my account is banned. I have read the terms and conditions and user guidelines and I am positive that I have done nothing but follow them. I have NEVER been banned from an app before because I have always followed the guidelines. Upon contacting support, I was told that they will not be reinstating my account and they have not told me the specific reason as to why I was banned. I have been told it is because my account received complaints, but not what the complaints were for. Not to mention that I have only received pre-written email responses and have not been connected with an actual person to help me on this matter. I have encountered many terrible men on this app that should be banned but are probably still on there. There are men on here who have tried to pay me to hook up with them which is a violation of the rules and upon rejecting them I am sure they put complaints against my account. I have heard other women say they have had the same experience. This app needs to change the way that it treats women. I am deeply disappointed.

2023-04-09

Best decision I’ve ever made

Listen, let me preface this by saying I’m not overreacting, over exaggerating or anything of that nature. I live in South Carolina and got board one night. I was on the app for around 10 minute under the “roll the dice” section. After 9 minutes of waiting it matched me with someone, my only match of the night. It was a girl from Florida and her voice immediately had me in shambles. We chatted through the app and added each other on Instagram. Some of the easiest and most fluent conversations I have ever had. Did I mention she was a smoke show? Well, we talked for a few weeks and eventually agreed to meet and let me just say THANK YOU. One of the coolest people I have ever met and genuinely makes me happy. Also, the absolute best sexual experience I have ever had on multiple levels. Borderline spiritual actually. Anyway, I fully support this app and believe it’s rooted in witchcraft. There’s just no way it made such a perfect match but hey, you might as well roll the dice too!

2022-03-30

Cool Concept, Decent Experience

definitely worth a try (ladies get in free) since the concept is fairly different than most other social-sites of similar accord..just lacking in a few locations, based on the amount of ppl on the app or by region/city/etc. but i’m not sure.

HOWEVER, one of the downsides i find most deterring is the subscription price per month for the males that are actually trying to utilize it for what it’s worth. This unfortunately causes guys to try & circumvent the gender-screen by signing up as female to search for other female accounts on a free basis. Speaking of subscriptions, there is no way to update payment credentials

Again, not too shabby of a working application & the ability to self-destruct photos paired with the automated monitoring of suspicious activities/conversations/etc. helps to weed out the fakes.

2022-03-02

Safety a priority

Over the last 6 months I’ve used multiple dating apps and one thing has become obviously apparent. The number of scammers on dating apps is ridiculous! It’s either individuals begging for money, crypto investors, guys pretending to be females, women soliciting for sex, etc.. if I had to guess I would say 8 out of every 10 profiles are scamming in some form.

That brings me to Pure. Pure is an alternative dating site and for the most part it’s the same, except for one thing. Pure monitors users that are fake or scamming. I’m not sure exactly how they do it but (possibly key words or patterns) but it is appreciated. As I begin to text with a match, Pure will inform me if something is suspicious. If Pure confirms this they will block the user. This is an invaluable service for people that are looking for true connections and are not looking to be scammed. That service alone warrants 5 stars knowing people have lost over 3 billion dollars to scammers on dating sites.

2022-02-12

Best app

I really enjoy this app and much more others like this one. I read a lot of other reviews and read complaints and problems most everyone has. Yes they’re are scammers and fakes on here. Yes all of them ask for so much money and need our money for so many personal reason. I don’t complaint or have same problems most users have. Once I get ask for help from people that ask for money and whatever sad story they give It won’t fly with me and never do. They ask and beg for the most crazy reason so we can feel sympathy! I enjoy having conversation but within 5-10 minutes getting to know other then bang! Money always get brought up. So maybe this will reach out and help someone if you go through this situation all you have to do play their game back at ‘em. Not to be rude, I repeatedly ask and beg them and same the exact thing to them and before you know it, once they realize I’m not a fool and they don’t get what they want, the real person speaks out and few of them curse out!

I’m not upset or complaining about anything! Im just saying just have fun with these perks conversation wise! I have meet up before and went pretty well.

2021-08-06

Waste of $$. Buy a scratch off instead.

I’ve been on & off Pure a few times over the last year & with the exception of meeting a couple real people last year, this app is rampant with fake profiles, bots, and scammers. Guys get to pay $15 (for a week) which is the the most I’ll donate & that is just for the hopes of maybe finding one real person. I recently did a week subscription & found the new profile layout to be friendlier, there’s just one glaring issue - not one of the profiles is active. I went through & liked every one, just to test it, and not one replied in 3-4 days. There aren’t any new profiles added, just the same 10-12 in your ‘neighborhood’. How they are allowed to call themselves a ‘hook-up app’ and get away with it is probably because of guys like me who come back every couple months in hopes it’s gotten better. It hasn’t. Save your $$. Just for laughs, it says you can be ‘king of the hill’ and get more attention for $1.99. I did it once & the second it went through it said someone else over took me as king of the hill & I should pay another $2 to overtake him. What a F’n joke.

2021-06-17

Decent idea with a very bad implementation

Well here goes my first review. The concept is an interesting one and I will at least give them that for now. However, the way they went about is very questionable. One, just in case you are wondering it is not a free app. The above I can live with, however, the number of fake profiles or people selling pics or people offering sex for money far outweighs the total number of legit people looking for something on this app. I do not say this lightly, the people who have made this app seem to be in no way concerned about removing the aforementioned profiles. The report app seems a novelty to make you believe that, “Oh look at us! We care about you”. Finally, over the past few days I have noticed that you get matched with profiles you have never liked, which is bizarre. Hope something changes otherwise take my word for it and do not bother.

At the same time, so many errors, can’t load right now, we will look into it, please try again, and so on. They either need better developers or they will not last long and become a fleeting novelty which will be done better by someone else. If I am paying a subscription for something the least you can do is offer a stable app. Apparently that is too much to expect in this day and age.

Unique, easy and fun to use

I was never the type of person to use all kinds of digital gadgets in his every-day life. This is why I avoided Tinder, Bumble and others until now. It’s a good decision so far, as those apps are usually full of ads and people one doesn’t want to meet anyway. Unfortunately, that’s the experience most of my friends made. A friend of mine recommended me Pure, he said it’s a good alternative to the common dating apps. I decided to give it a shot, hoping it’d be different. And it was! It’s truly casual dating at it’s finest. I only talked to a few girls, yet women who were very well suited to me. I met up with a couple of them and shared a few nights together so far. Let’s just say it like that - it was very pleasant. The app has a minimalistic design, offers temporary chats and pictures. Overall, there is hardly anything to criticize. If one wants to meet up for casual encounters, Pure clearly is the perfect tool. I’d wish the audience would become a bit bigger, but I guess that will happen over time. In total, nine of ten stars from me!

2021-01-05

So much confusion

I’ve been using this app for a month now, I’m confused if I’m supposed to let them text me on other platforms or not. Story time I got hooked up with this one girl who asked for my number, but the app told me it might be a scam? Turns out after a whole month of using this app that’s the only one that wasn’t. Two things, One: there’s a lot of scammers on this app, can the developer answer for this? I really like the way this app works I just want real people, and I also understand that it might not be the developers fault. Two: the only person that ended up being real for me asked me for my number but your algorithm told me it was a scam.. I’m just confused I can see the potential of this app so I want it to work but so far it seems there’s a lot of scammers and the real ones get flagged as such as well. I’m still giving it 3 stars because it’s a good app, just how can we reduce the noise. I hope the developers respond to this I’m on your team

2020-12-09

It ain’t that bad but.....

The discreetness is cool and so is the presentation of the app itself. I’ve met a few real people lol but here are some issues:

1. Lack of close people: I live in Texas, about an hour from Houston. I’m used to having limited options if you don’t live a big city but, this app doesn’t have a lot of people regardless of where you live. You get about 3-4 people and everybody is 150+ away. Only 3-4 people in greater Houston? That’s bad.

2. Distance lies: I’m under the impression that you don’t have a passport feature on this app.....so why do I have people who distance says they are close but, when you talk to them “oh I’m from Montana or NYC” or 1 minute they’re close, and the next the distance says 500+ away. Y’all gotta get that crap together

Lastly: Hookers and Content makers: you’re gonna deal with spam/fake regardless of what app you’re on but, I think it’s weird that y’all and other app makers lack at getting a grip on that stuff. I respect sex workers and what they do....but, fam, that’s not what I’m coming to the app for. I could pull up to my local downtown area for that.

Try to week subscription if you’re interested. I’ve met people who are real and actually close but, outside of that, idk man, doesn’t seem like it’s worth longer than that.

Pure is the best casual dating app I have used so far

As an executive in a global corporation, I have to devote most of my time to my job. I also travel more than 40 times per year, which leaves less time for dating or a girlfriend. Being in a city for just a couple of days left me with choosing casual dates with young women as my favorite option. I used to use Tinder, but it has gotten pretty much a hassle in the last time. Way too complicated and most profiles are not even active it seems. Ever since I discovered Pure, I have to spend much less time finding a suitable girl for a night or two. Pure just completely takes away any kind of waiting or hesitation. It's Yes or No, that's pretty much it. Thanks to thet 24-hour-chat, which deletes itself after that period of time, there's no room for games. Girls on the app are sweet and much more suitable than the average female Tinder user, who doesn't really know what she wants. So far, I met five girls thanks to Pure. All of them were pretty, sexy and ready to get intimate if the connection fits. To me as a busy man and a guy who has no patience for the flood of so-called hook up apps, which are actually time-wasters, I can recommend Pure. Easy, straight to the point and genuine. Great work, dear coders

2020-08-04

Be warned: Seems to be only bots and escorts

I’ve been on the app for a few days now and honestly I regret downloading, let alone paying for this app. First there is a limited number of women using the app at any given time , most of which are well over a hundred mile way. I understand this is sort of the deal with this app. People can choose to be shown at any given time or hidden. Would be nice to be able to set a “search radius” like In almost every other app. Second, All of the women whom I have matched with have either been bots or escorts, which just turns into spending a great deal of time trying sort out if your are speaking to a real person or not or a person trying to sell a service or not. Again I understand that the risk of participating in apps like these but it’s still frustrating. Perhaps I should give the app more time to try to find a real connection, but honestly I’ve pretty much run out of patience for this app.

2020-07-22

Waste of time, unless you like talking to bots

Somehow every person that likes me happens to be from the same town 413.9 miles away. They all ask to add them on Snapchat or Instagram. They also all have horrendous English. I don’t know where this magical town is but it seems that’s where every single person on this app resides.

Oh and if the one in a million person who is within 50 miles of me matches, literally every single one is out of gas and needs me to Venmo them some money. All with the promise of paying me back when we meet up. Or if they ask me to come over, all of them just so happen to be watching their younger cousins while their aunts are out of town and desperately need me to pick up a PS4 steam wallet game to keep the kids occupied. It’s truly amazing that every person on this app seems to have the same exact issues. Out of gas or needs the codes to a digital game pass? So weird!

But seriously, this app is nothing but bots. It’s become more entertainment at this point to see how the scammers update their bots almost in real time. I’m willing to bet that almost every positive review on this app is a paid review to boost their image. And did I mention I got an alert from the supposed developers that I report fake profiles too much? Yeah. Really comforting to know that they are on it when it comes to the rampant bot issue

It’s not so bad, “however”

Pure is honestly one of the best apps I’ve used besides tinder for hook ups and just to have fun with, not for serious relationship though. However the reason I am only rating three stars is because even though the app actually alerts you when you encounter a possible scam and I am aware that it is impossible for an app to completely block out every single scam,spam, or people using the app to make money by using sex, but I am still encountering the same people trying the same scam bs after I have reported them many times, and I suggest that the people running the app make a huge improvement on that and the location of people you can connect with gets a bit irritating as well. For example I connect with people who are three to 4 hours away, I’d much rather prefer to connect with people who are in a range of 50 mi away or less. So my suggest is you add a away that the users of the apps are able to adjust the location to their liking and at will.

Oh how far you have fallen

When i was first introduced to pure, you guys had a trial period and although there were some flaws, there was some promise and i actually interacted with two real people. Now, you have to pay $15 a week for the lowest membership along with paying $4 to “make the first move” in an app full of scam bots, escorts, and overall con artists. I had one person tell me “says who” when i told them that they couldn’t ask me for money for meeting up with them, and then they called me a bum and said they would move on to someone who had money, telling me “why should i let you sleep with me for free?” Um, THATS KIND OF THE PREMISE OF THIS APP. I honestly feel like i wasted my money, the $16 after taxes for the one week test drive, and the $4 i spent to “make the first move” with someone who hasn’t been online since before i joined the app. Furthermore, it’s not explained whether or not if you have open saved chats and don’t continue the subscription, do those chats disappear? Or are you still allowed to keep those chats. This app needs a lot of work and i wish i could get a refund honestly. DO BETTER PURE!!!

Rated 0 Stars if I could, all scammers

I have been using this for 3 months traveling back and forth between Houston and Chicago and Milwaukee and have only come across 1 single legit profile and she was looking for an arrangement that would include a cash allowance. The rest , and I mean 100’s are all either trying to sell pics, get you to come to instagram or even worse pretending to be escorts and asking for money up front which of course no real escort needs. If you give them even $5 “for gas” their profile disappears and you can’t get you money back. Also don’t want to forget the mention of the ones that want you to sign Up out of at website that offers a free 2-7 day trial and charges you after that. Then let’s talk about how you can report or block or report which are the same option in this nothing nothing happens except they are blocked from seeing you or you seeing them. However that lets them continue with the this app and continue to try scamming others. The makers of the app do this so they can appear to have more members online in your area. It is the worst app I have come across for hookups or dating period.

Sketchy

Free trial doesn't work. I have no complaints paying for an app like this but was trying to, well, try it before I bought it. App Store page shows a free trial. In the app is even a button for a free trial, but when you click on it? Immediately says "payment failed (-999)". I double checked my card balance, definitely not broke. Removed and re-added my payment method to iTunes. Trial still instantly fails. This is a problem with the application, not with my payment.

Which is why I feel this app is sketchy. I question if it's actually effective if I can't go see what it's all about without committing a minimum of $15 (for a week) before I can even see who's online in my area, or if there even is anyone using this app in my area. I'm not going to throw away money just to find out there's no user base with 25 miles. (Not saying that's how it is, but you literally can't see anything past putting your photo up until you pay. I'm not down to gamble on this when there are countless apps and websites out there advertising this same type of service.)

Fix the trial and I'll try the app. If I like it I'll gladly subscribe. I'll even change my review to reflect my experience with this app. But until then I'm leaving this as is.

It’s okay

The interface is a little bland. Not a whole lot to do but sit around and wait. You have to sign up for some kind of membership before you can even go online with it and I think that’s kinda stupid. I could go on Skout and talk to more girls in my area than this and probably have a better chance with them too. I like that this app is more direct and to the point with the fact that it’s purpose is to connect people that just want to hook up and that’s it. I just think the developers created it with poor execution. I would lose the subscription requirement, or at least make it cheaper, and I would gather up some money to advertise more to attract people to the app. It would be nice to have the option of seeing everybody that’s in your area that’s also on the app regardless of then actually currently being online or not. The 3 women that I actually saw online on there were people that were hundreds of miles away. I’m not gonna fly to another state just to hook up lol

Laughable

Had to download this app when it came across my suggestions. It’s hard to imagine any app with a “hookups only” focus succeeding in attracting enough people to actually work. Unfortunately, the developers have the sign-up process arranged so that just before you go online to see who else is out there using the app that you can potentially “hookup” with, a paywall appears and requires you to enter into a paid subscription. They offer a 3 day free trial, which you inconveniently have to cancel 24 hours PRIOR to the period ending or you will be billed. So, you have 48 hours to see if this app works for you, if it works at all. I imagine it’s useless unless you live in a metropolitan area where there is a high-enough concentration of users near you. I didn’t intend to use this app but thought it was interesting and it looked like someone might had figured out a way for people who like the concept of tinder- but are only looking for the physical aspect and none of the rigorous texting, small talk, or eventual mismatch of intentions- to get together in a straight-to-the-point way. Nope.

Great concept, especially for scammers.

I’ve had this app now for maybe a month and quite frankly it’s been a waste of money on so many levels. I probably match with 1-2 people a day and they all have been con artist and scammers. Not one has been out to hookup. I have heard every reason to send money it’s ridiculous!!! Gas money, steam cards, google play cards, iTunes. Its absolutely crap. I would love to give a great review cause it’s a great concept but they have no way to weed out the fake accounts except if two people mark them as scams. So they are free to rip off two people and then start a new account. I have literally become an expert at identifying these accounts and not just because 99% of them are BS. Let’s be honest smoking hot girls don’t need this app, yet most are to good to be true. Who pays $15 a weak for this app but can’t afford gas? People who actually plan on meeting don’t ask for gift cards. All in all it’s been a total waste of time. I don’t recommend this app at all, at least until they can figure out a good way of vetting profiles. Photo verification or photo I’d verification. Such a bummer how polluted online dating has become.

Far search locations and scammers

I think the idea and sound of this app at first glance but now I see it is heavily flawed, like why does it say searching the are and the girls that 121, 234,315,even over 500 miles away? Like I’m not wasting all my gas to go that far and back, just might as well go for a road trip. That’s the only the 2nd biggest issue the 1st is obviously the scammers, they keep popping up and I’m like no go away, your a fake person. I was able to have a nice chat with 2 people and I was like in my head “ok this is great, we’re having a good time talking, everything seems normal, and if it’s a scam it only be one of them right, it’s 50/50 ones real or fake” GUESS WHAT??? They were both scammers I was just like “wwwwoooowwww, really both??!” At this point I had enough, just might as well go to tinder, I don’t want to, honestly but they get results and in here it doesn’t seem the same case. This app needs better security and punishment against scammers and only searching people at least like in 50 mile radius or something. If those 2 issues are resolved then it would be a fantastic app. A little bonus the women (if actually real)on this app were very rude and I got several of them and I was like what did I do to deserve this?

Not much excitement on my end

Very interesting concept. Almost the antithesis to typical “dating” apps, and according to some of the reviews here, apparently much more positive and kinky than most of the slew of hook up apps, and I like that concept. I’m a bit of a voyeurist and adventurist. As a musician, artist, and a person highly in tune with my “wild” side, I couldn’t pass up the chance to try it out. So I went through with it for a 3 day trial. Right off the get go, the only match within my vicinity (central virginia, US) was a transexual lady, and although I have no intolerance towards LGBT, it’s just not my cup of tea, and while there are a few really beautiful ladies on the list, all of them are 300 miles away or more. So as far as I see it I cant justify paying monthly for it until more attendance in my area picks up. Hopefully it will, but for now will have to step down, but like I said I’m a spontaneous guy, and the thought of basically shutting down all that small talk b/s and meeting up with what essentially is a stranger is a big ON for me. Hope it gets more ladies soon!

Love It

I actually love the concept of the app and out of curiosity downloaded it with no real intention on using it. I found it amusing and forgot about it. Then I found myself in a position of “needing” it and remembered this app. I’ve had nothing but good experiences with it, customer service is always very friendly. It can feel sometimes like they take a little while but they handle any issues very quickly. I’ve NEVER had anyone ask me for any money I guess I’m lucky lol. I do sometimes see a few 300 mile away people mixed in with who is close to me. It’s so far and few between I think nothing of it.

I love that it’s direct and to the point like I am and like the people I’ve met. I also like that unless I mutually like a person I don’t get bombarded with a bunch of pervy messages. I will say that in comparison to the dating apps I’ve used the interactions I’ve had on this app has been much more respectful than any other - which is odd and I wouldn’t mind considering what I’m here for. So far I’ve been lucky *knock on wood* and I’m grateful that’s it’s been exactly what I’ve needed EVERY TIME I’ve used it!

Scammers and poor service

My first match was with 40 miles away at a hotel here for a “business trip” turns out they wanted me to stop at a gas station and load up two 50 dollar iTunes cards. So I can give her one before and another one after sex. I kindly declined and proceeded to report her on the app. Imagine my surprise when I keep seeing her over and over and over again. I message the support team who took several days to respond initially and eventually told me to record my screen showing my actions of reporting her and her showing up again. I then find out I can’t send them the videos through the in app chat and that I have to email them. Why didn’t they tell me this ahead of time??? Also when I emailed the clips, they ended up giving me the same copy/paste response I received when I first messaged them on the app. Somewhere along they said they would give me a month subscription free but that hasn’t happened either. I wouldn’t recommend this app to anyone. It’s a waste of money and if you make the mistake of purchasing a subscription out of curiosity, prepare to be extremely disappointed.

Great idea in theory but doesn’t work in practice really at all

This app is such a waste of money. I’ve tried it several times over a couple of years. First I tried it when it was new and there was nobody using it anywhere nearby me. Then I tried using it on business trips a year later and there was only 5-6 people showing up on the app across the whole country at any given time. I recently tried it again while on a business trip in a big east coast city and found that basically the only place in the map with any number of regular users was in. NYC. Even there, it’s only 2-3 people at a time. The other problem is that if the 5-6 people posting in the app at any given time that I checked in, I’d usually get 2-3 connection requests from people list wanting me to view their webcams. Don’t pay for this app. You’re not going to find a hookup from it. Great idea in theory but More people need to be aware of it in order for it to be effective.
