The antiquated, clumsy UX of the old version was replaced with this duplicate of the web interface that’s a navigation nightmare. This is what you get when you don’t design for a mobile experience. The tab bar wastes space on “Feed” and “The Scene” - i’m not sure which one is more useless. And, the account/profile button in the tab bar? Really? How often does a guy look at his own profile? And then to make any changes, you’ve gotta hit the edit button or the gear menu; 2 buttons to make changes and more buttons afterwards. Of course, when you eventually find your way to the profile list, you have a nav bar at the top eating up real estate. The profile pix are bigger now (nice) but then you use tiny fonts with empty whitespace. And, you couldn’t figure out how to combine “Nearby” and “Explore”? Oh, and look, there’s a nice search/filter line eating up space on the top of the page? And what do you end up with? Wow, a few profile pix per page! Have you even looked at any of the other cruising apps? You really should credit the open source components in the app somewhere.
Something once great is trash now

I was a long time member since the beginning and loved the site and this app. It did what it said and worked beautifully. Little by little things were restricted if you weren’t a paid member and i get that. They need to make a profit. I eventually became a paid member and enjoyed what was restricted. But now with this latest revamp it pure trash. Features were removed such as favorites which now became followers. The purpose of favorites was so you can go back to profiles you liked but not necessarily wanted to be friends with. Now that is gone and if you want it back you need to convert them to Followers and those profiles get notified that you follow them. This feels like they are trying to be something like facebook, twitter, and bluesky. We all know how much garbage is on those platforms. I cancelled my subscription back to basic free for now and hope the developers rethink the mistake they made by changing this once great app/site. If they make it great again then i might go back to paid subscription. Note to developers: you should ask your members what they want in the app, what experience they would like to have using your app, what they hate about your app. Take a survey or reach out to your customers. We are your lifeline to success. Don’t ignore us and think your decisions and ideas are all that matter. You still have time to make things right, make things great. But if you wait too long, you will lose all of your members and put the nail in your coffin. Please don’t disappoint us. I’m already in the process in looking for a better app to switch to.
I don’t hate change, just bad design

First solid black makes the app look sterile and cheap. Second I’m not thrilled that now I can only see two members that cruised me and if I want to see more I have to pay. Not happening. In fact I’m more likely to delete my profile and app when features which used to be free are placed behind a paywall. Third it keeps asking me to manually enter in my location every time I open the app because I have location services turned off. It should remember the last one I entered. There’s needs to be an option to select multiple messages to delete because this update also added the fun feature of merging sent and received messages (which why it wasn’t done in the first place is idiotic, but there you go). Finally I’m not wild about how the profiles look, images take up a large amount of space while the basic information in the profile is cut off requiring a tab to be pressed and usually causing errors because now more information has to be loaded in.
Could use some improvements

1. When I am typing a message to another user, the box to type the message in is really tiny with a tiny font. Once you type more than two small lines of text, you can’t see the previous lines of text. Makes editing messages very difficult. The workaround is to type out your message in a different app, then cut and paste it into Recon. This shouldn’t be necessary and would not be a tough fix for Recon. However, the problem has persisted for many years. 2. If you’re looking at other guys’ profiles and you have them sorted by distance from you, you can’t filter the results. If you filter the results, you can only search for other users across an entire state or even a country, and you can’t sort the results by how close other guys are to you. Seems like it should be relatively easy to combine these two features and make searching easier.
At Recon, our developers have been busy fixing some bugs reported by you, as well as adding some new enhancements and improving performance and stability. Here’s what’s new in this release:
- Ability to remove a photo sent in a conversation
- Bug fixes & performance enhancements
There is more to come.. Thanks for helping us build a better Recon!
