Badoo is especially based on matching people using photos and it seems many people don't read the profile texts at all. That causes problems with matching, it seems many people (in my case women) lo... See more

Bad to the doo review

Finally an app where you can message freely seems to be a lot of people from kenya and they say they are here (in the USA) but they are not. Anyways it's a good app even with that as there are real people on the site and I actually feel like I might get a date instead of talking to bots on all these other sites and apps. So I say download it now you won't be sorry!

So far not happy

So far not happy. After a pause because of negative experience I registered today again just to find out nothing has changed. After 10 min browsing I started to receive a message "Get Badoo premium". However I have premium in the first 3 days of the registration. If I press buy button i receive message "your premium status is valid". The message blocks the screen so you can not browse profiles. The other problem is that they have annoying automatically generated messages so men do not bother to write. If they do they only say "hello how are you" So annoying. I do not answer them, because I respect myself so why bother to be on the site. I came to have some positive experience - instead I am now irritated. I remember why I unsubscribed on the first place. Dating apps are useless. This one is too.

price is much lower than most other apps, under 100 for an entire year. I like the site and the basic functionality but felt like there were a lot of fake profiles or their location was bs. think it has potential to be much better than okcupid or pof.

A great big thank you

I love the naughty pictures and all of the beautiful ladies who make that another reason for wanting to wake up in the morning and live another day! Yours truly Logan R.

No nearby persons

I don’t understand why the app doesn’t show people who are nearby to make opportunities easier. For me it only shows ‘☆☆’.
