Not intuitive – Coffee Meets Bagel Dating App Review

CMB is easily the least intuitive dating app I’ve ever used. Firstly just using the word “bagels” to describe app users is silly on its face. Why do we need another (ambiguous) word for “users”? Just complicates things and isn’t cute. Secondly, waaaay to many upsell interruptions for a new user. Seems like every time I go to a tab it pops up some kind of upsell page that I need to dismiss. Annoying. Thirdly, I see numbers on the various tabs on the bottom nav, but when I click on a tab, it isn’t clear what those numbers represent. I must think way too hard to understand what the app is trying to alert me about. Lastly, the “recommendations” don’t work for me. Most guys are very visual, and that is the first gate a woman must pass. Recommending a bunch of profiles based on words in the profile isn’t effective. IG does a way better job recommending photos based on visuals I’ve liked in the past.
