TL;DR don’t believe the high ratingI noticed the relatively high rating, so I decided to check out what people were actually saying, and virtually no one has anything positive to say about this app. I checked the five-star reviews, and it is manifestly clear that the company is paying for this positive feedback. Almost nobody is actually saying anything positive about it; they’re just saying random words, or even numbers. This will remain true even if the company takes notice of this complaint and starts paying people to give “real” positive reviews; if they change that practice, do not be fooled. The reason I think they might do this is because they seem to have stopped advertising that you could find a cheating partner because of how many people left negative reviews about that false advertising. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an app so hated yet having such a high rating. This business model is absolutely disgusting, and so I’ll add my voice to the negative feedback. I would also encourage others to do the same if you hate this kind of sleazy marketing. If businesses like this can exploit technicalities in the law (assuming they’re not actually doing anything illegal), then consumers can also exploit the rating system to warn other people not to fall prey to such scams. It’s easy to track loved ones for free, and it has been for a long time. Don’t waste your money.
