Ratings and Reviews
Venture Travelogue Could Be So Much Better
Overall this app is good. However where it suffers is by not offering a wider range of towns and cities (outside of the US) to choose from in the Travelogue section. I’ve twice sent in requests to have two major European towns included, but you just get a token reply which ultimately leads nowhere. Surely there must lists of towns you can grab and integrate into apps. It wouldn’t be an issue either if these didn’t always come with a photographic backdrop, nice as that looks. Too many times I’m not able to alert others to my future plans to visit their town.

DISGUSTING!!!
Downloaded the app because friends of mine told me there was someone using my pictures on it to scam other users into sending nudes. Reported the profile and made many complaints. Nobody cares. His profile remained active for days... they are probably only part-time on this app and do not care about people using their app to commit fraud. I have had zero communication and his profile is still live now after being constantly reported over a period of days
***UPDATE*** Support team are absolutely useless, and after 48hrs respoded saying that they’d look into it, whilst the guy was still happily chatting away pretending to be me. Then, the next day, I get a response asking me for the exact same info I have already provided within the app. A photo of myself with a number on it, and a photo of their profile. These guys are absolutely useless. It might be a good app for hooking up, but when things go wrong, the people running the app haven’t got a clue what to do. I have sent the pictures 3 times now with numbers attached. Just delete his profile already!!!

Fitter and friendlier
I’ve been on Scruff ( and other apps) for several years both whilst living in my home country of the UK and whilst living and working abroad for nearly 20 years. I find the Scruff community to be the kinder and gentler onliners ( see there is a direct correlation with respect, manners, realism and ‘hung and hot’ as I always suspected!). The friends I’ve made and more importantly met, kept and still value years down the ‘online gay grid’ line are 90 % Scruff guys. Whilst the distance division of a smaller community means the ‘oh phwoar yes’ guy is just beyond your locality, compared to other sites I’ve used, an I’d say it’s worth the trip! ( so it’s 5 stars to Scruff as hot, sexy, kindr, and a watch out you should take note to Grindr!
