WHAT ARE YOU INTO? Recon is the world’s biggest kink and fetish dating app, platform, and online community exclusively for gay, bi, queer, trans and curious men into gear and fetish. Connect with other fetish men, explore your desires, uncover new fetishes and be part of a global fetish community built on shared interests. Recon is mastering the fetish evolution, and whether you’re discovering your first kink or already deep into the scene, you can find more of what you’re into. FIND YOUR TRIBE Meet thousands of men into leather, rubber, pup play, bondage, gear and more. Explore profiles of guys nearby, or in other cities around the world. Find guys who share your interests, see who’s checking out your profile and send them a cruise. Message other people who are part of Recon’s gay fetish network. CONNECT AND EXPLORE Cruise the guys you like, see who checked you out and see who cruised you. Make new friends, add them and follow your favourite kinky profiles. Get alerts on the Home Feed with their latest pics and event plans, and when post-event photos go live. Read from a wide range of member articles (shared personal experiences and a range of kink topics), watch featured interviews, tune in to the Recon Podcast and explore other aspirational content - all designed to inspire, build community, educate and turn you on. Find the fetish events you want to attend, add yourself, see who’s going, and make plans to meet them in person at Recon events worldwide. You can also find deals on fetish gear, accessories and other essential equipment from our advertisers. FIND YOUR FETISH Select your top five interests, from a list of 30 kink and fetish categories, and share them on your profile. Use the Filter feature to fine-tune your search criteria and find guys who share your interests. The Profiles tab helps you find guys online now, nearby, or in other cities around the world. SHOW YOUR FETISH Build a strong profile - add stats and a personalised text description that represents you, and describes what you’re into. Add a main photo, and a selection of images to your profile. Create additional galleries, show off your gear and your kinks, and send “hidden” images privately. GO PREMIUM FOR THE FULL EXPERIENCE Unlock unlimited profile views and view all public profile galleries, and gain access to advanced filters to help find exactly what you’re into.

Could use some improvements

1. When I am typing a message to another user, the box to type the message in is really tiny with a tiny font. Once you type more than two small lines of text, you can’t see the previous lines of text. Makes editing messages very difficult. The workaround is to type out your message in a different app, then cut and paste it into Recon. This shouldn’t be necessary and would not be a tough fix for Recon. However, the problem has persisted for many years. 2. If you’re looking at other guys’ profiles and you have them sorted by distance from you, you can’t filter the results. If you filter the results, you can only search for other users across an entire state or even a country, and you can’t sort the results by how close other guys are to you. Seems like it should be relatively easy to combine these two features and make searching easier.

It seems that this app only works for European men. I constantly get messages and “cruises” from men in Berlin, London, Sweden and pretty much everywhere but on the continent that I live. I’ve made it clear in my profile what I’m looking for and the guys in this app do not care. I got scammed by these 2 dudes and it’s scary how bad at communicating grown men are. This is a BDSM app and if you cannot communicate then the potential of anything stops right there. Communication is essential in the world of BDSM because of safety issues. I messaged a guy I had been chatting with for awhile and told him that the communication between us was not good and that I felt like I was the one who was carrying the conversations. I was very nice (nicer than I should’ve been) when I told him I was no longer interested due to his inability to communicate, his response was, “ok bye”. I wish I hadn’t spent money on the membership for this app because I’ve had it since 2020 and I have not met a single person. No one is serious about making any kind of connections on this app.

I enjoy the purpose of the app, but I honestly dislike that you have to pay to look at other profiles and that there is a daily limit if you don’t pay for the subscription. We should be able to at least view the people within a certain radius around us for free without getting the “sorry you’ve reached your daily limit of profile views” type of bs. The app is a little difficult to navigate and I’m not quite sure if the purpose of the “friends” tab nobody adds you as a friend on there at least not from my experience. I think this app is in a good direction for us kinksters but it’s poorly thought out for people who can’t pay up for a subscription, at least with Scruff, Grindr, etc we don’t have to pay to simply view nearby profiles. I think Recon needs to stop being greedy.

For mlm trying to find a good kink meetup, this app is really good! It lets you sort by age, distance, and interest without having to get the premium version, which is really nice for an app like this! There are a few tweaks I would like to see, for instance, if your kink isn’t one listed as a selectable “interest,” then your only option for finding them is to get lucky, or search by name & hope they have it there. Tickling, for instance, is one I would like to see added. Also, once you have searched by name, the only order you can view them in is alphabetical; it would just be really nice to be able to sort by distance as well, or to filter out by age, etc. For its usage, however, I find it 10x better than any other app for this specific job, A+!
