The range filter is horrible. At first you are shown local profiles and suddenly it switches to 150 - 300 miles away. Changing settings such are range works for about 10 minutes and then goes back to extremely long distances away. Contacted support, they said it is part of the app and they show you most relevant profiles. That sounds great in theory but who is going to drive 250+ miles to meet a stranger..

I set my preferences for up to to 50 miles and I'm seeing men as far as 600 miles. I set a Denomination preferences and I'm seeing everything except what I selected. What's the purpose of setting a preferences if they aren't going to show them? Dislike. I purchased the "Premium" for a week. Definitely will be canceling it because it truly serves no purpose in comparison to "Elite". It's almost like I have to purchase both for a full experience. Dislike.

A little difficult to set up. Shows a couple people in your area and that's all you get for that day of swipes. The rest are easily 400+ miles away. I have 29 people that have liked me but I've never seen them in the swipe interface and many won't message back leading me to believe they're bots. This app has potential but really needs some tweaks and cleaning up. After contacting the support team like the response asks, nothing changed despite messing with preferences, distance, etc.
