User reviews
The app isn't bad, unfortunately it has no user base at all. Just some fake or totally unresponsive accounts, with beautiful pictures. With a proper user base it would be great I think. However I cancelled my subscription after a week and they still charged me the next month. That is uncalled for and basically just theft. So, watch out and check your bankaccount.

Great app to meet people and makes your trip more enjoyable. Thank you great app

For starters, signing up on the app is impossible, since you can't manually input your DOB - need to scroll a zillion times until you find your year of birth on a calendar. Jumped to the laptop version as a workaround. Back to the app: very few people, mostly a sausage party and any contact would cost you from US$10. Bye.
