S'More: Chats, Dates, Friends 17+

Pretty good with some work

I feel like this app defiantly has potential but my problem is majority of the girls don’t have a bio which doesn’t give you much to go off. Also, I think as soon as you message someone they can see your profile if that’s true that sorta defeats the purpose. I’ve messaged a few people and I’m assuming they either blocked or unmatched me cause they get removed from my saved profiles and they don’t show up in the convos tab when you message them. I’m assuming this is because they have to reply for it to be a active convo? It’s just sorta confused me because most cases I message then a minute or two later they’re gone without a trace. I’m not sure what could be done to fix this but I thought I’d share my experience to maybe help the devs find a solution. Overall it’s works but I think it needs to push the people that receive a message to actually respond.

Hi Rojas- thanks for the feedback! You're actually right, S'More doesn't have an outbox - the only way you'll see a chat in your inbox is if someone responds to your message OR reaches out to you first. So if you've saved someone and messaged them, they will be removed from your Saved Tab and will appear in your inbox once they respond to your chat. It's a little confusing and totally understand the confusion, but there is a method to our madness: we have found that setting up the inbox like this actually makes for a more positive chat experience!! You really you get to focus on your active, reciprocal conversations instead of just looking at your outbox. Hope this helps, shoot us a note at support@smoredate.com if you have any other questions :)

Best dating app

It’s simple. No stupid swiping. You get eight messages a day and that is all it takes. Out of maybe six messages I got two people writing back who are actually interesting and align with how I am, so they are interesting to talk to and interested in more than hooking up. I like how clean cut the interface is. Good bye endless tinder swiping days.

And the free account actually works. It’s not some scam just to get you to pay for their gold membership. Simply because of that I want to donate money to them or sign up for premium for a little while just to help keep the app going. It’s revolutionary. I wish there was a bit more clarity on how the search radius works and stuff, but other than that, it’s legit the only worthwhile dating app I’ve ever used. Also neat how u have to get to know someone a bit before u see them. Can be surprising who is interesting and really meshes with you once u see their pics. But it’s about more than just looks :)

Seriously

The concept of this app is different which is what caught my eye. Revealing the image only after you start to get to know somebody is a really inventive idea. I’ve seen other reviews and I’ve also seen the app administrator responses which says that you always get match with people close to you. The first person I start talking to and we start getting along it’s revealed that she lives in California and I live in Virginia literally you could not get any farther within the same country are you kidding me. So I figured there was something wrong with my profile I went back and there is literally no place to put your location in your profile and there’s no place to see where somebody you matched with is from either. I’m guessing you have to pay for premium in order to get any of those features which I find ridiculous. I’ve seen this with several dating apps what is the point if you’re going to talk to somebody literally all the way across the country. I’m giving it one star they were great with the idea but horrible on the execution. Location is one of the most important things on a dating app and they dropped the ball on it. come on let’s get it together guys

Hi bluefade999! Thanks for reviewing and giving S'More a try. As noted on the App Store and inside the app itself, we're only live in select cities right now! If you've downloaded the app outside of our live cities, you'll be in "S'More Explore" mode -- and it sounds like you are as a Virginia resident. It is intentional that you'll be matched with people from all across the country, and we wanted this to be a fun way for people to make new connections during the pandemic. That said, we totally hear you: location is one of the most important things for a dating app, so we apologize for the miscommunication here. We're working on getting S'More live in as many areas as possible, and we do hope that you come back once we're officially live in Virginia :)
