I‘ve found this app to be full of fake profiles and scammers. Been using it for a while, I get loads of matches, but all matches are scammers or trying to sell you into crypto or possibly entice you into following them on OF etc.

Not enough users

This is quite an interesting concept, bit there just aren't enough users around me for it to work (Sandton)
Few real users
Tyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepie
There aren’t many people on here. And the profiles you do encounter and match with, appear to be bots. Account deleted, app uninstalled - can’t trust a developer who allows so many bots going around.
Developer Response
Hello TyePie,I understand how frustrating it can be to encounter bot accounts. We are continuously working to exclude fake profiles to be the safest and smoothest app and ensure the authenticity of profiles. Please report any suspicious accounts or contact us at support@happn.com for assistance.
