Blendr - Chat, Flirt & Meet Reviews

by Sarah_swe3ts

From the female perspective: first day this app is great you can do everything. Second day this app is where they catch you! In order to see who liked you or who favorited you, a subscription has to be bought. Within the first day I had plenty of matches and people visiting my profile but during the second day it dropped. I’m talking every hour 20-30 ppl would visit. It went down to about 1 or 2 an hour visiting. Now I’m not the most amazing looking out there but I’m pretty cute. For that the happen I can only see something wrong with their algorithm. Even Tinder was better than this!

**If I was allowed to rate 0 stars I would.

Blendr does zero to prevent the extreme amount of catfish and fake users on Blendr. The amount of things Blendr makes you pay for is historical. It is in no way like the very popular tinder or bumble because you even have to pay just to message who you swipe right on!?

It doesn’t stop there! Blendr, catfishes or not, is Full of Grenades as the Jersey Shore guys would say. It’s worse than POF when it comes to quality.

How Blendr brags about having 200,000,000 users is beyond me because you can change your location you search through to anywhere in the US and if you filter out people online you can l my get 10-15 people in any given city before it’s trying to throw you to another part of the country. Blendr is a serious joke. It’s not even worth the $1.99 to boost yourself so you appear more in other peoples searches.

Blendr is useless until you pay money via the in-app purchases. There really isn’t a reason to offer it as a free app. It’s misleading. You should just charge up front for it.

Every turn you’re confronted with the in-app pay system. Ooh, someone likes you...pay us and we’ll tell you who. Oh, you’d like to chat with someone nearby? We’ll let you try a couple, but if you wasted those chats contacting fake profiles, we’ll happily sell you more chats. It’s misleading to offer this as a “free” app. It should be a paid app.

Ok, I’ve used Blendr a few times, and basically my over all review about this would have to be, that I would not download it! Why? because... for these particular reasons: They either don’t answer, of it they do, they’re FAKE with a catch to watch STUPID cam shows for a certain cost to pay to see them half naked? Then! If they do talk to you, it’ll only be for a while then they leave and act like they don’t want to talk to u, even after they ask u a question and split? THATS MESSED UP!!! Anyone looking to date? Take my advice, DONT DO IT! Thanks!

[Edit: Got a response from somebody at Badoo. I don’t use Badoo, I use this app. Is there a reason you guys have multiple different dating apps? Seems pretty sketch.]

iPad app stays stuck in portrait. Most basic feature of iPads since 2010 and they didn’t even think to support it. Also, I just noticed today that even though I am subscribed to premium, they STILL limit how many matches I can chat with per day (but of course they let you purchase additional chats with credits.) They nickel and dime you to buy microtransactions just about as much as Tinder does. I just want to subscribe for a premium service and have access to everything. This is a scam.

Depending on where you’re from, the girls on Blendr will only look to add you to their following or try to make money off you some how wether it’s through some social media, fake account, etc.

The main reason I’m giving one star is that this company makes it so freaking hard to get into contact with them and ask for a refund for a purchase you didn’t even make!! It’s so frustrating, I only wanted to pay 6$ for a trial and it billed me 40$ for 2000 credits I didn’t even want or even get a receipt of purchase for!! They stole my money and I can’t even contact them!! I want my money back.

Blendr is literally defunct. It doesn’t allow you to even start using it whatsoever, the “ face recognition “ is useless as it never even registers that you have posted a profile picture and asks you to repeatedly without actually adding them to your profile. I selected profile pictures over a dozen different times to use but it just says it can’t use them, or it just simply doesn’t put them onto my profile and won’t let me message anyone or use Blendr . Absolutely useless and a waste of time, don’t get it.

Blendr doesn’t have enough people using it, leaving local options scarce and most people are far away. And then the free app is very restrictive when it comes to how they allow the ability to communicate with anyone- not to mention the vast number of notifications they send to you if you agree to allow them to be sent and turning them off makes communication with someone on Blendr in any real time way. The cost of the full app access is not worth it. Other apps and their free app versions are better options, because they have more users means more local people online to talk with and meet- they limit the number of profiles you can see around you, and all communication abilities are available are open in the OTHER guy’s free versions.

They say you have 600 swipes a day, but only ever allow about 50 swipes a day max. And then it’ll tell you you’ve reach your 600 swipe limit for that day, after you’ve only swiped maybe 49,50 times. You’ll NEVER run into the ones that liked you. Unless you pay for it. Just ridiculous. Also there’s so many pop up ads it’s the most irritating thing ever. Every 10 swipes you get an ad and if you click on it, bam. Takes you to you browser and then your app store on top of that. Also half the women on here are ts or haven’t been on for 30+ days... So annoying. So if you enjoy wasting your time, this is Blendr for you.

If you’re looking for a free dating app then this app is a waste of time. At first it’s great. You have capabilities far better than tinder or bumble such as viewing who's online, who viewed your profile, and liking profiles in cooler ways other than the classic swiping left and right. BUT... the second day I used Blendr , new matches were blurred and forced the user to PAY in order to continue using Blendr .
I assumed the “in-app purchases” were similar to those seen in Tinder or Bumble to unlock unlimited swipes, see who likes you, etc. ... but I was wrong.
It’s probably well defined in the small print but AIN’T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT

Blendr works to a certain extent. A lot of the things you can do are locked behind a paywall but that’s pretty much any dating app. I WANT to like Blendr, I really do. But the major issues are the lack of maintenance (checking profiles and stopping scammers) on Blendr . There is also the issue that a lot of profiles are allowed to put their location as wherever they want. For example, there are a lot of profiles from Indonesia that are stating that they are in New York. If these issues were to get fixed I honestly think Blendr would be a lot better

Recently divorced, I’ve downloaded around 150 Date / Hookup apps to try them out. I still have about 40 to test. This is probably my favorite so far and would recommend Blendr over Tinder Plenty of Fish. Try it and you'll like! This is the first app that I rate with 5 stars

by Joejoelb

Cool app but they’re pushing too hard to get you to buy the premium version. They’ll keep the hot ones that are local to your area just out of reach by not giving you both the option to swipe on eachother but will give you the option to make “this service” available which means message them for 200 points which makes it feel like your shopping for hookers. That’s pretty low class of Blendr to make it this way and is definitely not going to ever get me to pay for anything.

They could definitely change that and it would improve drastically but I suppose you get what you pay for or don’t pay for in this case lol.

In many ways, Blendr is better than Bumble/Tinder but.... I get that it may really limit options because Blendr isn’t as popular as tinder, but Blendr really needs a setting to limit how far away people can be from you before they won’t be shown. Tired of people from like 75 miles away being in my queue.

You know what’s a smart idea I have for this app, and other dating apps such as Tinder, Bumble, etc? When a user hasn’t been online on this app after let’s say 30 days, their profile account automatically goes deactivated or gets blind mode turn on their profile account. I believe this a smart idea to invest, because I as a user know somebody will go online, take the time to read my message, and get my attention by replying to my message. As for the other users that do not show much online activity. It’s like they never existed on this app.

This is the only app where I’ve met and talked to people. I have gotten more matches on Blendr than any other, I’m not sure if it’s the algorithm they use but I recommend Blendr highly. The only issue i have sometimes is For example when I likw a girl from Charlotte (where i live), and when we match, it’ll update her location to Huston Texas or something. It happens every now and then and can be a little annoying. But I’d rather that then match with a bot. Atleast it’s a real person

by Moore584

You do have to pay for some features but being able to chat for free s great. People seem friendly so far and open to meeting friends not just looking for a date. I don’t like the traditional dating apps, they are to restrictive and you usually have to pay for everything. Even the free “dating” apps limit you too much

by A Minnesota Nice Guy

I own my own business and I’m confident enough to give my customers premium access to my services knowing they will “try it and buy it “. I’m still brand new to not only Blendr but the possibility of dating in this sort of way. My only con is that this app should give a premium trial with all benefits included .

by Copeilia

As a girl on here, I've met a lot of interesting guys. Blendr is straightforward and has the type of people I want. I do think it is interesting though that so many guys complain about girls not giving any in these reviews, when I've had the problem of guys acting like they are until I ask where to meet up. Not Blendr 's fault, just funny

by Poppacockalass

I paid and could not talk to anyone within a 6 hour drive.. I should not even be in contact with someone that far away unless I set it that way.. it's not fair.. I'm jus gonna find a prostitute.. I can tell that women only want to find someone who can give them money anyway.. I wish I would have spent my 25 bucks on some crown royal. My problem is I paid and I still can't message girls.. what exactly did I get.. I just paid money and nothing happened.. I don't get what else I have to pay for.
