Taimi - LGBTQ+ Dating & Chat 17+

One of the better dating apps but it's definitely not perfect

So for the most part this is the main dating app I've been using. It's easy to set up a profile and I would say pretty user friendly. I like all the information you can put into it. The biggest issue I'vs found is that it frequently gives me people who I've already swiped away from. I think I've had to "reject" multipe profiles 5+ times because it recycles the people who I've swiped away. The other issue I've encountered is that people who are out of my age range are allowed to like me. I would say at least 50% of my liked are above the age range that I am looking for. I'm 19 and I frequently get people in their 30's or 40's liking me. I also have the same issue with straight men liking me. This is an LGBT dating app I dont even know why there are straight people on here. I am a trans man and I get a lot of people liking and messaging me that have their profile set to straight and they say they are looking for "women and trans men". I wish there was a way to report people for being a chaser and using an app meant to be a safe space for LGBT people as a way to fetishise us. I have matched with a few people on here but there's also a lot of crap I need to swipe through.

Hi, A.L.! Thank you so much for the detailed review. We're happy you're enjoying the app!
Some of the profiles you skipped will appear again after a while to give you a chance to rethink your decision. This is a test that was implemented to, hopefully, improve our algorithm and provide more results on Discovery. 💜
We'd also like to clarify that your profile will only be shown to people who match your gender preferences (sexuality), meaning that it's impossible for you to receive likes from people whose gender you are not interested in. They can, however, be slightly outside of your age or distance preferences. The same thing applies to the users whose profiles you can see - if they are visible to you, it means they've specified interest in your gender.
If you come across anyone violating our Community Rules, feel free to report them to us directly using the in-app Live Support Chat or by e-mailing us at support@taimi.com; both support channels are available 24/7! 😊

Awesome App! Totally Recommended!

I just want to express my great satisfaction with this app. I’ve been single for quite awhile and have tried several different dating apps. I never really had any luck. Then I would end up seeing tons of ads about Taimi. Honestly I was very skeptical to download it as I thought it was just another hook up app and I wanted something serious. So it took me several months of being haunted by the ads before I actually conceded and downloaded the app. I read several reviews before hand and how people were complaining about the subscription but I guess they did not read the fine print that the automatic renewal needs to be cancelled before the trial ends to avoid getting charged. The app was definitely free to use. It was easy to use and has the same swiping mechanics as the other apps. The only difference is you can tell the people who liked you and also it works like a social media app too with it facebook-like scheme. I am very satisfied with it because I finally able to find someone that I really like, we’ve been dating for more than a month now and recently became official too as we were hitting off really great. I’m so happy right now. Thank you to the Taimi Team. I definitely recommend this app to other people to use.

A masterclass in how not to build & operate an app

Taimi is a must have class in how you don’t build and run an app. The app started off incredible, features not seen anywhere else. Great UI, and a refreshing ability to build community as well as date. And then the greed kicked in, I mean why else would they make some of the most abhorrent UI/UX decisions every seen by far? It feels like they’re own by match— but not even match would do make of the bone head choices Taimi has made. Its thats a shocker.

Why continue to take the legs from under your user base with nonsense features,the removal of great features, and more money traps? Interestingly enough the community, at the beginning of launch, would proudly have crowd funded new features. As well keep the app enjoyable and popular. Thats If, Taimi had asked us to do so, the queer community knows how to unify behind a cause we see worthy. But clearly the company doesn’t think ahead or out of the box.

Many of you ( corporations) see communities like this as desperate and so, easy to shake down for profits. With that said, I hope your ratings continue to fall. Hopefully you all will go back to what made your platform unique. Time and time again, developers today seem to have a hard time realizing its about user focus. If you wrap your arms around your user base. The users will take care of you. Taimi is a great example of how you fail despite having all the tools for success in front of you.
