Feeld: Meet Couples & Singles 17+

Update - April 2022: Since my original rating, it seems as though developers have fixed the bugs that were causing the app to crash frequently. As that was my main issue with the app, I’m giving them another star. Now, my only real complaint is the lack of ability to “go back” to a skipped profile. I’m not paying for premium, so I’m not sure if that’s a feature with paid plans. Other major dating apps that charge for this feature will at least display the button for all users, so you know it’s an option if you want it.

I first used Feeld about 3 years ago, and was really turned off by how buggy the app is. Constant crashes, frequent need to log back in using a link sent to my email, etc. These bugs annoyed me enough that I deleted my account. About a month ago I decided to join again, as it’s really difficult to use the typical dating apps to connect with others looking for the same things as I am. I thought, surely they had to have fixed these issues after all this time. Nope! Still a huge pain, and not much better than before. Yet here I am, a masochist enduring these frustrations for the hopes of meeting someone(s) special. Sigh. Please, Feeld, get better.

The concept and amount of real users is phenomenal. Fake profiles are almost nonexistent which would almost be enough for a 5 star rating. If you’ve used pretty much any other “dating” app you know how annoying it is to cycle through 30 fakes to find one real human.
Why I can give it 5 stars is because there’s still glitches in messaging and if you set your search by activity. With messaging: you open the app up and it often glitches to a message but shows the older messages. So if you have a new message you can overlook it and might not actually see that that person replied to you. If you have many messages it becomes more pronounced.
What happens when you set the search settings by say active within a week. Yes it filters out someone that hasn’t been on in 3 months but you will only see people that are within 2-3 miles. The filter seems to completely disregard your distance perimeter. This means you can’t use it and have to flip through stale profiles.
My only other suggestion would be an undo in case you accidentally hit a pass on someone. Happens a little too easily if you have the who likes you feature. When scrolling you can easily hit the minutes button.

First, it’s better than most apps, particularly if you’re LGBTQ+, queer, neurodivergent, kinky, and/or poly. There’s more space here for different loving, and if you fall under that umbrella, it’s really refreshing.

Their paid tier (“majestic”) gives you one free ping (a way to connect with other members) per day, and having that daily ping refresh and be available to use has, for me, been really spotty. They say they’re working on it, but it’s been a while and it’s still an issue. Hopefully they’ll get that fixed one of these days.

The real problem is just how many not-real-people “professionals” there are on the app. Insanely hot well-endowed Instagram-models with no text in their profiles (why is an empty bio even allowed?), broken-English word soup about being open minded, or just straight-up snapchat addresses where they quote you their rates for sex. There are some great people on the app too, but they’re just getting drowned out by the “professionals”, and I wish the company would do a better job just doing a basic account review to make sure the accounts in the app are for people honestly looking to meet people, not hire them.
