Best app for gay men on the planet except for maybe grinder 😜
Better than many of the alternatives. - Limited number of blocks for free users is a safety issue. - Additional monetisation features like paying $12 to appear at the top of the grid for two hours detract from the overall experience and utility, and comes across as desperate from the users as well as the platform. - Absolutely woeful moderation of fake profiles.
Having to pay to block people makes this app unsafe. It means that you’re bombarded with repetitive messages from unhinged types who won’t take no for an answer. Online safety is a basic right (and not an extra’s feature that is paid for). Additionally, the single/partnered ratio is pretty terrible and the majority of profiles are partnered men who are ‘not looking’. Photos take a long time to load and their Victorian era standards mean that any pictures are usually rejected if anything more than an ankle is revealed. This app was popular about 10 years ago… but it’s now outdated, clunky and it failed to keep up with the times. Much like Gaydar… it’ll end up on the digital dating site scrap heap. Avoid.
The drive to subscribe has just become way too intense…. They lost me when they started giving you limited blocks…. So if someone’s harassing you, you have to pay to block them. Which sort of feels a bit morally wrong…
This app is just getting worse and worse for those who don’t wish to pay.. I refuse to pay for this app ever again and now they’ve basically made it unusable for none paying members, I’ll just be deleting it. Unless you want to pay, don’t bother with it.. can’t block anyone and now they have reduced the amount of profiles you can view for free.. pfft
Scruff has reduced the amount of profiles you can see in an area unless you want to pay. Makes the app kinda not worth using.
Can only view 24 profiles
Why is scruff now forcing people to subscribe even when you need to block people? Not good enough.
I appreciate the app needing money to grow and continue servicing your users, but the significant reduction in amount of blocks/favourites a non-paid user can have, severely limiting the amount of profiles you can view (copying grindr), and shoving the subscribe screen in my face every time i want to see the woofs tab is way overkill and turning people off
It’s really poor form when an app asks you to pay to block profiles, in this day and age where online safety of being brought into question, blocking profiles should be fully accessible, I’m sure this is in breach of some iOS and Google policy.
