Duet is exploitative in a brand new way. Most apps paywall certain features, but most aim to function on a base level for free users.
Duet does not. You will like a profile, then two swipes later that profile is back to the top with a “praise” messaging feature ad attached to it. You already liked them, but now your options are to pay up for the privilege of sending an unprompted message to a profile that has not liked you back, or to swipe left removing them from your likes.
On top of this infuriating “pay or throw away” model, they also constantly bring up blurred out profiles of people who have apparently already liked you (I say apparently because the moment I finished setting up my profile there were two of them, no fake accounts though?) That would be great if I could swipe right and match, but instead they are dangling a carrot in front of you and demanding your money to even find out if the carrot is real.
Still looking for an app that doesn’t aim to frustrate you into paying for basic functions, and this one goes a step in the wrong direction by forcing you to dislike profiles you won’t pay to talk to.
