I don't know what's going on but they've been removing more features and it's acting up these past few months. You can't exit out of a conversation without being hit with several ads. They just removed the ability to see old photos the other has sent in chat. Removed the feature to find key words that was said in chat. Your text would randomly not send and it won't tell you till you check the chat again. The search feature has been limited so much you barely get 1 row of guys to talk to.

The ads have been incessant lately in a clear attempt to get you to buy the (overpriced) premium version. You are punished for exiting the app at any time; if you do you will be hit by an ad immediately after sending a chat or viewing a profile. After the ad there's a banner telling you to upgrade. It's so embarrassing that they're so desperate for subscribers that they'll break the app experience. Also the ads are loud and there's no way to turn the sound off in the app. Gross!

Ads make app almost unusable at this point. App can't find location because ads are running. App can't load because ads are loading and the newest update made it somehow worse. It's terrible! UPDATE: New forced update has taken away several useful tools. It was useless before, now it's turned into a leach. It interferes with open apps, opens new tabs on chrome by itself and repeatedly poses Bots as interested people from the exact Distances and sentences EVERYDAY!! Barely usable! Uninstall!
