Ratings and Reviews
Good app
I just got this app today and I really like it. it’s really fun to be able to meet new people plus play the little games that they have on the app. There’s only a few things that are small problems: 1. I wish it would explain a little bit more as to why you got a friend request but no biggie. 2. It would be really nice if there was a list that you could look at of all the people that you have swiped right on because there are some people I swiped right on that I would really like to look at the profile again But I’m not able to unless they swipe right on me, but sometimes I forget I added the person first so you’re not sure if you should give them your snap or not. Bottom line it would be nice to have a list of all the people that you’ve requested/ swiped right on. 3. This isn’t exactly a complaint but just a warning for some people. When you put your birthday in it automatically sets your profile to your age but some people are going on the app and saying they’re a lot older than they actually are so just a fair warning some guys and girls might be a little bit older or younger than they say they are. Other than that it’s a really awesome app

Thank you so much for your review and feedback of Wink! We hope by listening to thoughtful users like you, we can keep improving Wink to make it a 5-star experience :)
needs lots of improvement
there are a lot of things that i think should be changed, first off the swipe feature isn’t the best, you only get 100 gems every 24 hours and each time you swipe right on someone it costs you 10 gems for a total of only 10 adds for one day. While swiping i have swiped right or left on someone on accident and when i press the yellow undo button it takes me to the profile BEFORE the one i had swiped on accident which defeats the entire purpose of the button, also using the undo button costs 20 gems! ridiculous!! whenever i do receive a friend request the only options i have are to “chat now” or to “add on snap” instead of just having an option that says “accept” that after pressing will add the person to your friends list. Lastly there is a reoccurring bug in which i receive a message and when i enter the app to see it the interface is blank, only showing the name on the profile and not the message, when this happens it happens to every other chat as well whether i have a new message or not. The feature where you can chat with a random person is not bad but sometimes when i decline someone they continue to pop up even after i have chatted with someone the same people i decline and even the ones that have declined me continue popping up instead of never doing so again after the first decline.

Hi there - thank you very much for your feedback. We are sorry to hear about some of these experiences and are continually working to improve so that Wink can be a 5-star experience! We would also love to hear your thoughts on some of our more recent changes to the app!
It’s alright but find another app if you want to make friends.
This app literally stresses me out so much because why would you make it so you can skip a person but can’t friend them after a certain amount of swipes!?!?! Just let people make friends, you shouldn’t be limiting swipes!!! The app also randomly glitches to were I will have 100+ gems, then I go check again and they’re ALL GONE when I did not use them on ANYTHING. It’s a great app for making friends but the limiting skips and the gems disappearing needs to stop. (Edit 1) A few more things I’ve noticed are I still see a lot of profiles from the UK even though my country is set for a different one, and I have the setting on for the app to only show people in my country. The app will also randomly refresh when I’m looking at someone’s profile. The refreshing also happens when it says you’ve ran out of swipes, even without leaving the app or swiping out of it. And sometimes the app won’t let me use it AT ALL because it says I’ve run out of swipes but does not provide a place to buy more or a timer for when you get more. I’ve had to delete the app and install it again a few times due to this glitch. The creators need to work on fixing these annoying issues instead of adding even more on top of them to try and cover them up.

Hi there- Thank you so much for the feedback. We’re sorry you feel this way. There are many ways you can earn free gems such as, following us on Instagram, checking in everyday, inviting friends from Snapchat, making friends on the app and messaging everyday with a 7 day conversations streak. We are aware of the gems and search preferences issues not working properly which is frustrating. Our team is working to fix these issues. Stay tuned and use the latest version of the app.
