## Playground Description
When your friend has cancelled your movie night. Or you're exploring a new city. Maybe you're waiting at the airport. Need extra motivation to go running. Or you just wanna go on a date with someone around the corner who's also up for a drink, in a natural way without expectation or commitment. It's for these moments, and many more, that we've loved building Playground. Showing you what people are up to and places to go. With real context, creating a bridge between the online and offline worlds to meet on the go. To feel there's always an opportunity to be truly connected and we hope happier, literally anywhere, anytime.

## Playground Reviews in United Kingdom

### ***** "Cool animation"
Love the design
-- Dan_Stan911, 2024-09-05

### *---- "Three weeks later and still waiting for approval."
I guess I’ll go elsewhere.
-- jaiedro, 2024-08-22

### *---- "Definitely do not reccomend downloading."
Its been weeks now since ive been waiting for my profile to be approved. I genuinely just thought the app was still under development due to it being relatively new which of course isn’t a big problem. However, to my surprise after checking the reviews AND checking the support teams REPLIES to the reviews, I am not the only one. 

“Unlike immediate processes on those platforms, our community takes a more personalized approach by carefully selecting our members.” Is what one of the replies from the Playground team read. Which unless they’re flawed, my comprehensive skills lead me to believe that the selective process includes the big question ‘ Hmmm are they gay ENOUGH’

 I find it extremely interesting that for a gay app that’s supposed to be about community, my profile isn’t being accepted. I think its safe to say that im not gay enough to be accepted but hey, there’s always grindr 😀👍🏾.
-- _mdeezyyy, 2024-06-09

### *---- "Doesn’t work"
App doesn’t work and there’s no way to delete your account
-- David . . ., 2024-05-27

### **--- "Lack of Communication"
For Transparency: Have been waiting for approval for two weeks.
This is not really an issue since the app states that it approves on their own basis. However, I think there are other issues about the app. 
First off, the approval process needs to be stated outright since the length is rather long.
Secondly, the pre-approval page does not link to a provisional profile page where you can change information or delete the profile.
Thirdly, the link to the support page on their website directs you to a Whatsapp chatroom. 
All in all, an odd experience. 
If possible, can I know how to delete the profile.
Wishing it all the best.
-- FixMatchMakingRank, 2024-05-20

### *---- "Registration doesn’t work"
Can’t get past the screen to enter a code which is never sent to me. Tried several times, the phone number is correct. Alas, no way to progress
-- Londonbiker75, 2024-04-15

### ***** "Love the experience"
The map is very cool. Really innovative
-- fedr_7, 2024-03-23

### *---- "Pending approval for two weeks"
I’ve created my profile two weeks ago and it’s still pending approval. Can’t even access my profile to delete it. Don’t know what’s happening with it.
-- Fernandolx, 2024-03-10

### *---- "Waiting for profile to be approved?"
I’ve been waiting for over a week for my profile to be approved, you simply cannot even get into the app until that’s done… any reason to this?
-- fuenxidif, 2024-02-20

### *---- "Unable to register"
Trying to register for a couple of days and its saying they’re working on approving my profile. On tinder and hinge that happens in seconds, maximum in minutes. But here it is days and counting… got this app recommended by a friend, but would recommend to anyone to download it
