Recurring themes

Gender Issues negative
A significant number of users express frustration that the app does not allow for gender selection, leading to situations where players are prompted to kiss someone of the same sex, which many find awkward or undesirable. This is a recurring complaint across multiple reviews.R3R7R8R14
Dare Variety/Quality mixed
While some users enjoy the 'sexy' and 'fun' kissing dares, many find a substantial portion of the dares to be 'stupid,' 'creepy,' or 'gross,' such as 'shake hands' or 'kiss elbow.' There's a strong desire for more 'action' or the ability to customize dares, and a general feeling that there's 'too much kissing' without enough variety.R2R6R16R25
Party Enhancement positive
Many users praise the app for making parties more fun, helping them get closer to crushes, and even leading to romantic relationships or 'hook-ups.' It's seen as a tool to 'turn things up a notch' and create exciting social interactions.R1R4R9R15
Technical Issues/Ads negative
Several users report that ads are intrusive, blocking parts of the screen or preventing them from using features like adding pictures. The requirement to shake the phone for each turn is also cited as annoying.R3R11R12R55

Who it's for

This app is for individuals looking for a free, simple digital version of 'Spin The Bottle' to liven up parties or facilitate romantic interactions, especially those who are open to a wide variety of dares and are not bothered by same-sex pairings R4R9R15R21. It is not for users who expect gender-specific targeting, highly customizable dares, or an ad-free experience R3R11R12R25.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew positive, which is a departure from the overall lifetime rating. Many positive reviews are short and enthusiastic, focusing on successful romantic outcomes. Negative reviews often provide more specific details about technical issues and feature limitations. The app's last update was nearly 200 months ago, indicating it is abandoned, which is not explicitly stated in reviews but is a critical context for its current state.

F-ing awsome people!!! GET. iT!!!!!!!!!!
  5. [R16] 3/5 · US Great!! ;): Ok, I still haven't been able to play this with my crush yet... But I got a couple of plans. I already looked at the whole app. Some of the stuff was stupid, like shake hands, tell a joke, kiss feet, kiss freckles, kiss thier elbow! I suggest a couple of things though...1) French kissing...2) more making out action...3) not so dumb kisses. But I like it anyway. My favs r ...1) kiss for
  6. [R49] 3/5 · US Awesome App!: This game is awesome! I kissed so many people! I like the one where it says kiss for 4 minutes!
  7. [R53] 5/5 · US Funny!: Hilarious. I played with my friends and my two guy friends landed on "blow in your partners ear softly." Haha, great game. And its free!
  8. [R73] 5/5 · US Review: I love kissing people and it's really fun/sexy!!!
  9. [R76] 5/5 · US Awesome: It's kinda stupid how it says 18+ when u buy it but I bought it anyway When I did the whole kiss however u want for 4 minutes I almost got sprung Plus it was my crush it was awesome Not ur ordinary game of spin the bottle
  10. [R3] 2/5 · US So so app: This app is ok. It doesnt have a choice to chose the persons gender so it makes girls and girls or boys and boys kiss and usually people won't. Also you have to shake your iPhone every time it's a new persons turn which is very annoying.
  11. [R7] 5/5 · US Jerk off!!!: IM NOT G@Y JACKWAGON!!!!!!
  12. [R8] 4/5 · US Prety cool!: I really like this ap! It's really fun to play and I really like the slow mo kiss and the spin kiss cuz it's really funny to watch. Lol. I just wish it had a button that said male or female because then it wouldn't make girls make out with other girls, which is kinda awkward. Lol. But overall great!
  13. [R14] 1/5 · US Gay app: This app is gay i tried it one night they hated it so do i
  14. [R2] 1/5 · US (: Omg shake hands what the crap is that
  15. [R6] 1/5 · US Omg: Its not even dirty
  16. [R25] 3/5 · US Good, but not good enough: Some of the kisses presented are a bit creepy, such as "kiss your partners freckles". If you want this app to be a winner, then make it so you can create your own answers. And also, instead of asking the person to 'look up' what a butterfly kiss is rediclious. I hope you soon update this app of what I just told you. Thanks.
  17. [R11] 1/5 · US Total ad/spam garbage - doesn't even work!: Total garbage. Nothing but spam and ads - so thick the app doesn't even work! Avoid at all cost! (even free - its not worth your time)
  18. [R12] 2/5 · US Blahh!!!...: This game would probably be good... If I was able to take a picture... The ad for truth or dare is in my way... And i can't even get a picture... No good... Plz fix.. Thank you...
  19. [R55] 2/5 · US Good idea: Well I've never gotten to the game yet!!!! I want to add pictures! Whenever I want to the ads are in the way!!!
  20. [R69] 3/5 · US Well....: The ad was in the way when I wanted to use a picture...  if that gets fixed well I love this app xD

  25. [R92] 1/5 · CA Mentaly challanged: I think this game is rather dumb. What if a girl lands on a girl when she likes boys (or vice versa) then the person wouldn't Want to to it. It just needs to be better.
