Boo — Dating. Friends. Chat‪.‬ 17+

I used to think Okcupid was the best dating app because of its extensive match system. But it has become so left wing and like Tinder with requiring and prioritizing photos, that it isn’t so good anymore.

More than one dating app focusses on MBTI personality types, but Boo seems to be the best in my experience. I love that it shows users’ Enneagram and zodiac signs too, gives you a description of each type/sign, lets you write long profiles, lets you not upload a human picture if you want, lets you display and search for people who don’t drink or smoke or do drugs. There aren’t as many local people on this app as the more popular dating apps, but that’s understandable. I’ve still found some local people, and I get to talk to people in other countries too. I haven’t encountered any scammers like there are on Coffeemeetsbagel.

Hi! I'm glad and grateful you like it! We hope to live up to your expectations and continue delighting you in the future. :)

The idea behind this app is great, but they’ve really implemented it as horribly as possible. They hire fake accounts and BOTS to promote their content in a spammy way all across the MBTI groups on Facebook, even getting several of them permanently zucced for spam. They don’t care, they just keep going. The developers of this app are unethical, and I wouldn’t trust them with my data or privacy for that reason. They don’t know what they are doing. Two years of SPAMMING Facebook to DEATH (literally for the groups they selfishly killed with their spam), and still less than 300 reviews. I don’t trust these people. They’re doing a LOT wrong, and I simply don’t trust the developers as far as I could throw them. Absolute trash. Someone PLEASE make a better MBTI based app. The ones doing it so far are FAILING (like these guys), and such an app is actually really needed! Just not one run by unethical, crappy programmers who leave their work full of bugs. The worst part? When you try to offer them feedback, they ask you to change your review to a positive one but they never actually fix the problem. So who knows how many of these reviews are fake as well, all of the five star reviews are in question, probably written by the same bots that they hired to spam Facebook. Scam much, Derek & Team?

Hi Chbird, was sad to see this review. We're still very early and only launched just last year. We're a small team, so we are working as fast as we can to fix any bugs as well as develop features our community has asked for. Your accusations of us using any sort of bots or fake accounts is completely false and is slanderous. User privacy is something that's important to our team, and we take it very seriously. To my knowledge, I don't believe we've ever asked someone to update their review without having fixed their problem first. If you want, we can talk about how we can improve over email. You can feel free to reach me at hello@boo.dating. Happy to listen. - Derek

Hard to give this app a proper review when it doesn’t seem to work. I had half a dozen matches on Day 1, but now it just says “no souls detected. Try expanding your filters” every time I open the app. My filters are pretty broad as it is but I tested changing them just to fix it and nothing.

The app will notify me that they have new people for me to see, but when I go to open it, it’s the same issue.

If it was actually functional, I’d only have one complaint and it’s that there are A LOT of myer’s Briggs information reserved for premium users. This is kind of dumb to me since I can just google myer’s Briggs to get more information. I get something has to be reserved for premium, but maybe I could at least have points I could spend to unlock them. And then I could either buy more points or get a little just from logging on and liking or whatnot. Anyway, I haven’t really had enough time to decide how I feel about the app since it’s completely unusable :/

Edit: so interplanetary mode does fix the issue... kind of. I don’t really want to consider people 400 miles away because I’m not in a position to do a lot of traveling. Unfortunately, this is the ONLY way to get the system to show me anyone at all. Also, there’s no “like” button from what I can see, which means you HAVE to message someone or give them a hard “no”. Idk, I appreciate the developers responding and trying to make the app more approachable but it’s kind of rough to get anywhere.

Hey Mitch! We've just given you Interplanetary Mode, so you'll be able to see more people if you move your distance filter to the right on the spaceship icon. Please let me know if this fixes it for you, and if so, would appreciate it if you could update your review! We also have a coin/points system in the pipeline exactly as you describe. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me at hello@boo.dating if there's anything else I can do for you or improve. :) -Derek
