Wink - Dating & Friends App 17+

This is a fantastic app to find and connect with people, I strongly believe that this app has gone through some fantastic updates my only issue I have is the people on this app.

It’s not the app itself but the weird guys, I don’t have manny friends so I got this thinking I would fine some nice people to chat with but a fair few always just ask if you “send” or where you live and creepy things like that, it’s unsettling and makes me uncomfortable, thank goodness their is a way to block people on wink and on Snapchat but these people need to be stoped like go on tinder or something like we don’t need your nasty requests and things like that! But over all fantastic app! Just the people can be very disgusting.....

The app functions well as a way to meet new people however after the latest update some improvements need to be made. It’s good that a new in-app messaging feature was added so that you can decide whether you would like to give your snap after talking to them for a bit and avoiding creeps. Some of the issues I’ve noticed with this feature is that it’s harder to identify who’s swiped on you as opposed to the old setup. Another issue is that once you decide to ‘connect’ with them you’re unable to view their profile and can only open a chat. Something that also bothers me is that without camera access enabled you can’t open chats which makes me confused cause I don’t see any reason why it should be a requirement unless I decided to send something. Lastly, the new profile setup cuts off people’s bios so that you’re unable to read them fully. If these issues were fixed then I have no doubt that Wink could compete with Yubo as a way to meet new people however with the issues the latest update has brought I feel like I’m more deterred from using it than enticed compared to the previous simplified version.

I like this app I haven’t found any like “fakes” or bots everyone is genuine it’s not what I expected tho as I saw it from snap how heaps of people were adding you straight away but within saying that all of the people in here are real people (that I’ve Uncounted with) so it’s not going to be 24/7 bing bing bing so that’s why I gave it a 4 instead of a 5. It is a lot better then Yubo in my opinion because Yubo has bots that will add you and will glitch out and not let you add some people and don’t give you notifications most of the time (in my case) so I’ve switched to wink and it’s a lot better :)
