  1. [R3] DOWN 3/5 · US Down: I’ve had a great experience using Down. The app is easy to navigate, and it’s straightforward to connect with people who are looking for the same type of relationship. I appreciated that conversations felt genuine, and the matching process was smooth. The clean design and simple features made it enjoyable to use without feeling overwhelming. If you’re looking to meet new people in a relaxed
  2. [R5] DOWN 5/5 · US Amazing: It’s perfect for if you just want to talk, hookup, or even just hangout. No judgment and very open minded.
  3. [R7] DOWN 2/5 · US Glitchy: It’s way too easy to accidentally date or like a person by mistake as you’re looking through photos. There also doesn’t seem to be a distance option below 60 miles away which is crazy.
  4. [R8] DOWN 5/5 · US Down: Great app, it lets you pick whether you want something serious or not and gives you a bunch of options.
  5. [R2] DOWN 5/5 · US Amazing: Very good layout, good color scheme, real people and real results , I’m happy with my purchase from this app, it’s as easy as 123!!
  6. [R23] DOWN 5/5 · US Love this app: I been here for two days and I got matches I love how organized this apps is for me and you
  7. [R4] DOWN 1/5 · US APP IS NOT WORKING: I can’t seem to message back my matches. It just freezes completely! Someone please explain this situation!
  8. [R13] DOWN 1/5 · US Read: This app is so weird. I’ve been able to use it for a while then all of a sudden it dosent want to to work.
  9. [R18] DOWN 3/5 · GB Issues: No option to adjust the distance from your location and the profiles you are shown are seemingly random huge distances from you. Now and then you’re randomly shown a profile in your area. Sometimes when adjusting the age range, larger or smaller, it breaks the search and suddenly there’s no profiles available.
  10. [R21] DOWN 3/5 · GB Average: Nearby not working, but the app is the latest version and has access to my location
  11. [R1] DOWN 1/5 · US Boooo: Just like every other app where they shove subscriptions down your throat. Last I got on the app, I literally could not leave the page without subscribing.
  12. [R16] DOWN 1/5 · US Scam: Seems more like a scam to make you spend money
  13. [R22] DOWN 1/5 · US Money: In order to use app or message u need to pay. Per message…LoL
  14. [R10] DOWN 1/5 · US Fake people in this app: There are so many fake people here and scammers
  15. [R12] DOWN 3/5 · GB Shame about the owner trying to flog his book: Not a bad dating app, but the owner of the app keeps sending unsubscribable and undeletable messages trying to sell his “Get Rich Quick” book!
  16. [R28] DOWN 2/5 · US Endless ‘down team’ spam: As I’m sure most guys on this app experience, you get about one match every two weeks. During that time, you will get endless messages from the down team about how to use the app and other messages that just make you think you actually have a match or message. But instead Down just spams you all the time.
  17. [R34] DOWN 1/5 · US An actual Scam app: You’ll never meet someone in you’r area they will always be 60+ miles away. You get a bunch of “visitors” that you can’t see because you have to pay but soon as you pay they dry up. You get spam message from the dev team so it seem like you have a match but the notification numbers don’t go away.
  18. [R74] HUD™ Bedroom Dating App 4/5 · US Cool app: This my first time trying it out for one! I like the app it was going great to many messages tho slow down with the messages couldn’t handle it lol only thing got me is that I can’t get back into my account for some reason every time I try to log in it tells me Error something went wrong like what happened? Idk if my account got closed or deleted but it’s not letting get into my account
  19. [R32] DOWN 1/5 · US Sucks: Can’t do anything without paying
  20. [R87] HUD™ Bedroom Dating App 3/5 · US Location: I don’t know what you guys are doing to fix the location problems, but it’ll have me match with people that are not even in the same state. It’ll show me someone near me but then say there’s no one near me right after they pop up you guys should be looking into fixing it and making it better not to mention you guys have a lot of fake profiles on here and a lot of people that are just try
  21. [R91] HUD™ Bedroom Dating App 1/5 · US Money grab: App is a huge money grab. Used it for about a month and only alerted of my profile being viewed. You have to pay for every single thing. Most of the profiles are also fake. This app is a waste of time.
  22. [R100] HUD™ Bedroom Dating App 1/5 · US Heavy bot accounts: This app contains heavy bot and Ai ran accounts , they reuse old pictures from previous accounts not in use , and turn them into new profiles , A lot of the bot accounts use the same names on each profile Like Em Liv Angel Envy The list goes on also these bot accounts are verified accounts!! So beware and be safe request real time photos , to ensure your not getting sca
  23. [R105] HUD™ Bedroom Dating App 3/5 · GB Fake: Full of fake accounts that send pics then delete you
  24. [R78] HUD™ Bedroom Dating App 3/5 · US Pay to Play: If a woman sends me a message, I have to pay to send a message back. This is difficult if you are unable to pay do to circumstances that are not about money. So, I would recommend that you do advertising on your app and get money from corporate America instead of us. It’s more lucrative for your app.
  25. [R82] HUD™ Bedroom Dating App 2/5 · US Its ok: Made an account a couple months ago, then deleted it after the 1 week subscription ended. Overall, its not great or terrible. It alright. My only positive feedback is at least the profiles are real people, and not scammers. The verification process is legit so thats nice. But other than that, the subscription prices are still way too high ($24 for a week, $50 or more for a month or year).
  26. [R84] HUD™ Bedroom Dating App 3/5 · US Damn you got to pay to chat: I like the concept and how the app is honestly everything else on the app is actually good but the fact you have to pay to even chat to someone is what’s bad 2 weeks on the app and haven’t even had one conversation yet. What’s the point on liking someone and not being able to precede anything with them, thats making this app not worth it
