Feeld: Meet Couples & Singles 17+

Update - April 2022: Since my original rating, it seems as though developers have fixed the bugs that were causing the app to crash frequently. As that was my main issue with the app, I’m giving them another star. Now, my only real complaint is the lack of ability to “go back” to a skipped profile. I’m not paying for premium, so I’m not sure if that’s a feature with paid plans. Other major dating apps that charge for this feature will at least display the button for all users, so you know it’s an option if you want it.

I first used Feeld about 3 years ago, and was really turned off by how buggy the app is. Constant crashes, frequent need to log back in using a link sent to my email, etc. These bugs annoyed me enough that I deleted my account. About a month ago I decided to join again, as it’s really difficult to use the typical dating apps to connect with others looking for the same things as I am. I thought, surely they had to have fixed these issues after all this time. Nope! Still a huge pain, and not much better than before. Yet here I am, a masochist enduring these frustrations for the hopes of meeting someone(s) special. Sigh. Please, Feeld, get better.

If you’re a man seeking women, and if you’re using Feeld in a Core or any other highly populated area, you need a paid account, and you have to BE CAREFUL with your Likes. Most women have free accounts, so they can’t see Likes at all. Even if they have paid accounts, they get inundated with Likes, so they still probably won’t see yours unless you get lucky and catch them while they’re in the app. And because men vastly outnumber women, they probably won’t find you organically unless they’re swiping like mad. Your only real hope is to buy a paid membership and Ping them – which you can’t do if you’ve already Liked them, because the app hides profiles you’ve already Liked, and there’s no way to withdraw your Likes. Once you’ve Liked them, you’ve lost them. It’s almost no better than a Dislike. If you see someone you’d like to connect with but don’t have a Ping available, the prudent thing to do is to swipe past so you can see them again later. Which of course builds up a backlog, so now every time you open the app you have to swipe through a huge number of profiles you’ve already seen and re-think your Ping allocation from scratch. If this was a conscious design choice by Feeld, they should explain it and help people understand how best to work with it.

The concept and amount of real users is phenomenal. Fake profiles are almost nonexistent which would almost be enough for a 5 star rating. If you’ve used pretty much any other “dating” app you know how annoying it is to cycle through 30 fakes to find one real human.
Why I can give it 5 stars is because there’s still glitches in messaging and if you set your search by activity. With messaging: you open the app up and it often glitches to a message but shows the older messages. So if you have a new message you can overlook it and might not actually see that that person replied to you. If you have many messages it becomes more pronounced.
What happens when you set the search settings by say active within a week. Yes it filters out someone that hasn’t been on in 3 months but you will only see people that are within 2-3 miles. The filter seems to completely disregard your distance perimeter. This means you can’t use it and have to flip through stale profiles.
My only other suggestion would be an undo in case you accidentally hit a pass on someone. Happens a little too easily if you have the who likes you feature. When scrolling you can easily hit the minutes button.
