The "near by" or "discover" experience is awful, it showing me people hundreds Miles away much more people in my city, it was working perfectly fine before and you did something which is badly messed it up. you should give more control to users to limit the distance they to search within. unfortunately you turned it into a very bad user experience.

Terrible. if you want to date an advert then this is the dating app for you. The adverts do not just last 10 or 20 secs which would be acceptable, they last forever and it just ruins it and becomes boring watching the same ad that you have no interest with no way to stop it. However, there are that many ads, it does increase your chances of matching with one! Just avoid.

The only app I've come across that use these specific types of incredibly irritating ads you have to click and wait, then click again and wait again, and then click for a final time, easily missing the x because they make the button for it incredibly small. On top of that, 2/3 swipes (left or right) and you're presented with these ads. Scummy behaviour. edit: barely any other dating apps use ads at all, nevermind as relentless as this. spare us the lies and just say you're a greedy cash grab.
