bad app

Leomunyzreal on

United Kingdom

very bad app. there’s more ads than profile. each touch on the screen to see a profile it’s a new ads. sometimes more than one. always showing people that are in other country but never in my own. very bad app improve. will never be like grindr.

closed it down

johnyates417 on

I closed it down they are ridiculous with taking down profile pictures it's a gay dating site for gay people over 18. There was no nudity or bulge but for took down they are so bad town it and many fake profiles they seem more interested in taking down genuine pictures then dealing with fake profiles.

I’ve given up - time to delete

I’ve managed to forgive all the spam, fake profiles, constant advert pop ups. But now it seems you have to pay to see any messages at all. So no longer any point in having the app. I don’t think Hornet will be around much longer - what a shame for an app that once used to seem like a responsible alternative to Grindr….

Restricted since update 👎

itsmejim on

United Kingdom

So what was a fab app is now like Grindr and you can only see so many profiles nearby unless you pay for a subscription bad move ! Also buggy as hell since updated and not showing msgs or getting a reply from customer service 👎 full of scammers and fakes

Verified profile

Nick cri on

United Kingdom

You keep updating the app saying that you now have verified profiles. However, what you never mentioned is that you want us to pay for this privilege. Every other application, you can verify yourself for free. What has happened to Hornet? You have got rid of all your moderators, and now the newsfeed is a constant stream of escorts, people selling absolutely everything, nude photographs etc. You are making it worse for the User not better.

Going to the Dogs

Annoyed User of Surge on

United Kingdom

I’m afraid the app used to be responsible and actually quite good. Like so many in this genre they become utterly ineffectual at weeding out persistent fake profilers mining personal details. The only saving grace being these fraudsters are so brainless, repetitive and impatient with their ‘patter’ they give themselves away very quickly. If not the multiple use of photos of the same person active in several different profiles in the same area all at once. All this should be simple to detect, whether a ‘bot’ or a poorly paid human, the fact that it isn’t now speaks volumes Hornet. Why anyone would pay for these apps is beyond my comprehension.

Awful app

Worst app for adverts. Every few clicks and a new advert lasting for ever
