  • Pretty Good, Very Empty

    Jack Sisti

    App is incredibly well made, however, there aren’t nearly enough people on the app for it to be legitimately useful- I ran out of people in my area before I ran out of the 7 daily likes (possibly the only intentional feature that I dislike).I think this app could be a massive success if you guys launched a good marketing campaign.

  • Great app but has room to grow

    E.L. Reid

    I think the app is great but I feel their should be more quizzes for what a person likes to do when they go out and after completing it show a list of activities that they can do for a date idea

  • It's pretty good. Definitely worth the ol' college try.

    As a well-mannered, straight guy focusing on becoming a better version of myself (someone I'd consider "normal," whatever that means), dating apps aren't ever what you want. What you want is a relationship.Buuuuut... this one is pretty good! I've gotten more matches here than on Hinge and Bumble, which is super surprising. The only issue is that I wish more girls in my hometown had nectar. It seems to be a very L.A.-dominated app. But I've found the girls kinder, even if we know we won't match. It's not as draining as other apps because I genuinely believe they aren't designing this app to make money. So that's pretty darn cool.I also reeeeeally miss the weekly loveprint advice from before it was a dating app. Those made me focus on making better moves to become a better me. And I hope they bring them back. Even if you have no new matches, it'd be nice to get a lil weekly motivation, you know?TLDR: Hinge is "made to be deleted," but not really. It's made for you to buy the premium stuff. Nectar is made to help you genuinely connect with someone you'll like through the personality-based loveprint. And that's pretty cool. :)

  • Bots and scammers ahoy

    TheRealOdenzen

    This app really doesn’t do anything good, sorry to say. It’s got a 7 swipe a day limit and goes off the weird 24hr timeframe bumble does. The pooling size for locals was incredibly small (atleast for me and I live next to a college town), but I can forgive that since the app is newer and may not have caught on yet. The problem is the bots and scammers. AFAIK there’s no verification process so it’s a losing gamble on if it’s a real person or not you’re talking to. I matched 2 girls, one seemed alright but wanted me to use some third party messaging app I never heard of and when I convinced her to use WhatsApp, it says “she” was located in Nigeria and not the neighboring town like on her profile. The second like messaged me but instantly I could tell from the spelling and opening sentence that they were not the girl in the picture, so I deleted the app. In an already bad time to be a dating app, this one does nothing unique or interesting to separate itself.

    Developer Response

    Hey, thanks for the honest review.We hear you on the small pool size. nectar’s still growing, so depending on where you live, there might not be a ton of people yet.About the bots and scammers: we know it’s a problem, and we’re exploring ways to tackle it as soon as possible. We don’t have the perfect solution in place yet, but it’s on our radar and we’ll have something coming out in the next few weeks to combat this.As for what makes nectar different: we’re trying to move past endless swiping by helping people match based on real compatibility. Things like your loveprint and relationship readiness score help you see who’s looking for casual, intentional, or committed connections so you’re not wasting time.We appreciate you giving us a try and sharing where things fell short. Feedback like this helps us keep improving. We hope you’ll give us another try.- The nectar team

  • Bring back the quizzes!

    I'm.Wierd

    There was no need to make this a dating app, or if you did you should have kept the quizzes! That was the whole reason I downloaded the app and was waiting very impatiently for every new quiz update. They should either be separate apps or at least still keep the personality quizzes. They were so interesting and fun for me and my friends to do and compare and see how compatible we were with each other after each new quiz. Please bring back the quizzes. I was dying to see the money one and there were two other new ones coming out I was dying to take. 5 stars for the quiz app it was last year. 2 stars as a dating app.

  • Improve Question Quality and Quantity

    umm7urayrah

    please improve question quality and specificity. determining relationship statuses and other information is quite important. and you wouldn’t want to be misjudging or misdiagnosing people. ask better questions to get more accurate results. some questions just don’t make any sense. like the family one, like what is a created family. the monogamy one isn’t straight forward either. like non-monogamy doesn’t just equal open relationship. it could mean polygny. the love print is pretty good but it’s literally just relationship readiness. like save all those 20 questions and just ask 1: are you ready? and you’ll get the same result. you need a love quiz that diagnoses a persons giving and receiving love language, relationship needs, what they offer in a relationship, what they prioritize in a relationship (money, their family, having kids), what do they want to achieve in the relationship, what they need to work on, insecurity/baggage from past relationships, etc. these things will actually help couples or friends. another point: differentiate between romantic and platonic relationships in surveys. you need to take time writing the questions. even if it means adding more questions. bc how is five questions gonna diagnose a situation?? bfr u need a better team on the questions. too general. get on ur zoom, nut. i love the concept but please take your time and perfect the surveys.
