The app has promise and is a ‘good sell’ You have to pay for DM’s so I spent a small fortune sending them and received no likes back. Now I know it’s subjective, and beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I get that. But I get a decent amount of likes from good looking women hinge. So to not get any back on WAX is strange. So I concluded the juice is not worth the squeeze on WAX. I don’t know if it’s the sheer volume of messages women get, or an algorithm thing but I won’t use WAX again. Hinge in my opinion is a much better experience, granted a more vanilla experience. However if it’s community you want there is plenty here. Some chat rooms are very spicy indeed if that’s your thing. But they sit behind a pay wall. It’s not my thing to spend time on community chat groups. If you don’t pay, then my experience is that you may Likely get little to zero likes as a guy. Hence the title of this review ‘crickets’. Unless you’re willing to spend a lot of time networking in the community and money. That said, the customer service was responsive and the people were lovely, very helpful indeed. I chatted personally with the admins and a developer. So that part is spot on. You wouldn’t get that on a hinge or tinder. To conclude if WAX were to change their model to be more like hinge, ie you can message for free then I think they’ll have a growing business model, with less frustrated men.

I was on and off killing kittens for a while, as a sort of kitten(gender fluid, not female) the basic membership that is ‘free’ still requires a £20 fee. With this you can only like profiles and was tricky to get matches unless you were in a group and could directly tell someone. As they cant find the likes or its tricky too. Over lockdown it was nice to be in the kittens groups and go on zoom or skype to have a video chat with some lovely people, it kept me sane for a bit and was a laugh. But the general thing with the groups were, if you’re not active enough you’ll get booted. With the new change of the app, its somewhat better. They’ve tried to be more queer friendly, but imo its not really changed all that much. The lay out of the app is better, but its still the same thing, like a picture, write a comment below. If you want to be part of the groups and see who likes you, you have to pay for your subscription. If you want to go to any of their events, you need to pay more money to even be considered for the events. I didnt like some of the way they addressed people as didnt feel it was appropriate and was told I was making the chat too political and need to leave my opinions to myself and be nice to people. It made being in group chats awkward and I just left. If you work from home and have a lot of time on your hands to keep up with daily sending pictures and chatting to a lot of people in a little group then go for it. If you have spare money to spend on a subscription that I think its too expensive then go for it. If you identify as queer of any kind, I would stay away. Still waiting for a good neurodiverse queer friendly app that doesn’t dictate what you can and cant talk about it, because talking about everything should be important for any future partners in my opinion.

This is a fantastic way and place to meet like-minded people in a safe positive environment the admin do a fantastic job and I think the verification process is a fantastic idea! The app itself is still a fair bit glitchy and the l biggest issue I find is it doesn’t load mentions or replies notifications in the chats. Which is frustrating as it could be seen that you’re ignoring people when in fact you haven’t spotted somebody’s replied. This bug in particular I have reported several times over the past year. It would seem that they are trying to work it out and it’s taking a little longer than another bug fixes to rectify. Apart from this, it’s a highly recommendable app! Suitable for all adult age ranges and a really good community for newbies and those who have been in the lifestyle for a while! Keep up the good work! I’m very excited to see what new features will be added next time!
