I used it once, got a decent date out of it. Despite its gimmick it doesn’t feel very different from similar apps to me. I’ve grown to really dislike this style of dating app, it makes me feel almost ghoulish making a snap judgment on a human being based on a picture and short description. I know that’s a tad dramatic and I don’t want to discount the format if it works for you, but swipe-based apps always leave me with a bad feeling until I’ve had enough and delete them.

I used to use OKCupid 10+ years ago and I liked it more, the emphasis on filling out a good profile and answering compatibility questions appealed to me. Not sure if OKCupid is still like that now or not.

Also, maybe this is more of a personal issue but I’ve had this happen both times I’ve gotten a date from Bumble and Tinder - there’s a lot of reading between the lines and mixed messages that I am not good at. Both times I met up with someone there was an expectation of a sexual encounter on their end that I was in no way prepared for. But I think that stems for my need to be direct and I might be incompatible with that kind of dating scene, haha.

I met my wife on bumble

I met some nice girls and went on some fun dates! The app also helped me get out and explore my city more too. Then love blindsided me and I fell for one of my wonderful guy friends. I guess it worked?

An extended family member met his fiancé on there, they are getting married later this summer :)

I’m ace and couldn’t use it for dating, as no one read any profiles. I did find some friends with the BFF mode. So overall worth it?

I had a good experience.

Just used it for a brief time and met my wife by using the app. Two of my friends also found their wives on the app.

I think it is a place to find more quality interactions than say Tinder. Granted, any app can be used for casual meet ups.
