About this app

We’ll spare you a long text, let’s explain in human words who we are.

To start we are a dating app like so many others. If you’re looking for hot hookups we can help. Everything you need is here for free without annoying ads.

What makes us special is our community! Most of our users are looking for quality connections, from friendships to real dates. We began as a typical garage start-up with no investors. Today we are based in liberal Amsterdam & Berlin, and we lead ROMEO with the same spirit for more than 20 years.

Thanks for reading

Every single time since rejoining earlier in the year, I receive the 'photo uploading' notification...its so annoying as all my photos successfully uploaded to my profile months ago. I contacted via email to ask for help...told to log out/in, install updates, delete photos and reupload and when none of those worked, the staff member said that a technician would contact me...4 months later and no contact...and still the 'photo uploading' notification appears, every single time I open the app 🤬

It has used to be a good app . Now too many fake profiles. A lot of those who put London in their location, are hundreds of miles away, often in Russia, asking for your email right after the first hello. I don't believe the developers are actually doing anything about it. Instead, they give you a limit of users you can block and ask to pay for extra. And this limit runs out in a day if you check every message you receive.
