App no longer usable

Used to work before Thanksgiving and ever since has been a downhill mess. It’s impossible to manage messages any more and it used to be possible to tap on a profile avatar in your inbox to go straight to the profile without having to read the message(s) which is handy to decide if you even want to spend the time reading the message(s). Now you are forced to tap into the message and then go to the profile. Lame useless change that brings with it a flaky and unusable inbox that doesn’t even feel like a native iOS app at all.
Can’t even log in.

After I enter the code to log in, it just sends me back to the screen asking me to request another code. Bro blows...
Doesn’t work

Can’t even log in. I tried phone log in three times, and it accepted the codes. Then it just brings me back to the main screen asking me to log in again. Weak.
Garbage.

All it says is sorry head is not allowed on your profile and you can’t ever make an account. Garbage this is why ur app doesn’t Trend.
Buggy, buggy, buggy.
behind the mask
And half-baked: - Notifications of new messages or replies often arrive late (if at all). Often I have no notifications or badges at all, but as soon I launch the app, suddenly I see "new" messages that were sent to me a day or more in the past. - Badges don't reliably appear when messages arrive (and don't reliably disappear when messages are read). This applies to badges on the app's main icon as well as the red dots that appear next to various sections *within* the app. - Instead of a carriage return, allowing you to add space between paragraphs, there's a second (redundant) send button where the carriage return should be. As a result, when typing, it's incredibly easy to accidentally send an incomplete message by tapping the areas where pretty much every other app in existence has the RETURN button. - After sending a message, there's a long delay before it appears in the conversation. - Messages you've started to type often disappear before being sent. They literally just vanish, requiring you to retype the message. - Scrolling within a typed message (to edit it) doesn't work properly. Works fine in other apps. - No undo for profiles accidentally swiped left or right. (Other apps have undo.) - Profile text is truncated when displayed, and there's no visual indicator that a given text field contains more text than initially displayed. (I discovered this by accidentally tapping some text in a profile, and it scrolled, revealing more text.) - The purpose of a "Bromance" is not explained. - When a profile features multiple photos, there's no indication of additional photos unless you first tap on the main photo. THEN indicators appear. Indicators should appear on main profile. Having to tap to reveal them is silly. - Very often, a user's city and his distance don't match—and there's no explanation. Is the person traveling? Or is the app just wrong? No info is provided. With the number of bugs that I encounter DAILY, the 4- and 5-star reviews for this app are truly baffling. One wonders if there's something fishy going on here. I've reported these issues to the developer (some more than once—including when I first installed it *6 months* ago). Yet, not one bug has been fixed. As such, I can only conclude that the developer simply doesn't care.

Easy to use. I like the straight frat guy references. I see how guys on the dl would use this over any other. Also mostly free. Tainy charges for EVERYTHING

I fill in my information and hit continue and nothing happens. I triple check to make sure I filled it all in and it still won’t let me continue.
Found a friend

I found a good friend here. It’s difficult to text, there is a delay and some messages vanish after I press SEND arrow.
Can’t be discreet or on the DL

This app requires a face pic. For those of us who are discreet or on the DL it won’t work. The app admins need to realize that it is not always safe for gay people to have their images out there depending on where they live. If you live in a smaller town or in a region where being gay is illegal and someone sees your face on this app it could mean dire consequences. Please keep this in mind.
