Downgraded to one star. Keep getting errors about location, which doesn’t happen with other apps. Woof app advises accuracy within a couple of hundred feet. Maps accuracy is spot on. Also, as of today, messages no longer work. Error message, "Something went wrong. Please try again." Cleared cache, cleared data, force stopped, uninstalled and reinstalled, but nothing helped. This app is pretty much useless at this point. I am a free user, but I can't believe you actually charge for this app.

Terrible! Free version is a nightmare and FORCE updates at very inconvenient times. --Constant ads that interfer; with 15-20 seconds required time, minimum, and must hit 3 to 4 X's, or other, that must be figured out to close them out. --- --I find going to app settings and forcing stop is far faster and much less hassel. Other wise you spend half your time dealing with ads. --Also can only see a few profiles before they disallow anymore. Forcing stop usually allows 1 or 2. Very unhappy.

Limits the amount of accounts you can view heavily. Lots of very annoying and intrusive ads. Makes me close and relaunch the app to work. Lots of paywalls for no reason other than greed. If someone you were chatting with randomly disappears from your chat section, there's no possible way to find that person again no matter how well you were hitting it off the other. The recent update (11.19.24) makes the app run awful. I literally can't use it anymore. Please revert whatever changes you made.
