#open: nonmonogamous community

My experience may change over time, but compared to other apps I've used it's not very user intuitive. The page to choose preferences of who you're looking for is lacking in detail and explanation of what the options mean. And while personal gender and sexuality has many options, "looking for" only has three- M, F, and X. Hard to get questions answered or find support. No email address listed or support chat function. If you manage to get to the "email us" link but have your phone's default email app disabled then it goes nowhere. I can apparently set my city location instead of following my location, but can't see it confirmed or listed anywhere. Distance from people is listed in "mi" which I assume is miles??? There's no optional settings anywhere to convert this to km.

Sign in continuing to load was over charged for membership

In Tacoma WA and even a 40 mile radius leaves much to be desired. Surprising how few are here including from Seattle

I'm newly ENM and have been looking for apps that cater to that - #Open came recommended on several sites, so I decided to try it's out. For context, I'm straight man in my mid 30s. I liked a fair amount of women, then was told I was had "run out of" likes. I pair for a month of additional likes, only to immediately discover any users left were more than 3X my maximum distance. It's been almost 4 days and I have no new users in my area. Will probably use the app until my subscription is up, but I'm sitting here without no likes frustrated I invested time and money in a dead app.

This app has great potential and i can see it. The software feels sloe and a little out dated tho. Its very slow and theres a bug where everytime you find someone out of range, it wont let you go to a different profile up until you up the distance up and thats a problem when im looking for people that are pretty close. And liven up the software, it looks like a 1980's website. But other then that i love the idea of the hashtags and the search bar and everything else. Keep up the great work😁😁😁😁

Update (12/31/23): I tired this app two years ago and it wasn’t great. It’s even worse now. The free version is a joke. 14 total swipes a day?? Please. There’s still no user base to speak of, and I live in one of the kinkiest cities in the country. Don’t waste your time or money. Someone really needs to step up and fill the void left by the collapse of Feeld. Original review: I think this has potential to be one of the best dating apps, if not the best for non-monogamous/poly people. The list of interests/kinks/turnoffs is endless and helps you connect with likeminded people. No other app has this level of detail. Unfortunately the user base is really small. I live in a metro area of over 2 million people and I made it through every user within 25 miles in less than an hour. The lack of distance cutoff is also a problem. It’s not helpful to see people hundreds of miles away once you’ve seen all the people near you. It’s also impossible to know if the people you’re seeing have logged into the app recently. Did they make a profile a year ago and never log in again? This seems to the be the case. I’ve made exactly one connection that wasn’t a scammer or bot. It’s very reasonably priced compared to the other apps, but some advertising would really help. Otherwise it’s a dead app.

The free version of the app leaves a lot to be desired. I live in the rural Midwest. The fact is there are not many people who consider themselves polyamorous or at least they’re not open about it. Not to mention, I am a black female, searching specifically for other black counterparts. The free version of the app gives you only 20 swipes a day. Typically, the options I’m given are older white males, and some couples sprinkled in. My 20 swipes are gone in the course of 15 seconds with no potentials for me. Now I know I could broaden my horizons, but at this point in my life, and after having a 19 year marriage, with a white male, I would really like to look for a relationship with someone of my own ethnicity… sue me. But in my search, I’m not even given the opportunity to see men that fit this description with such a limited number of swipes unless I pay for more. Even if my search ends on a black male, by the time my 24 hours resumes, that particular profile is gone and I am back to a catalog of non-black males and couples. The search does not pick up where it left off. It’s actually very frustrating. I feel as though if you’re going to limit the number of swipes that an individual has, then you could at least give more criteria by which the search can be limited to. But that’s just my opinion. In the end, the company has to make money and this is one way of ensuring that they do that.

Nice idea and all, crappy execution and there’s no one on the platform. The DC metro area has plenty of kinky, ENM, and other open folks that the app was built for, so why is it a ghost town?

i can’t get the app to send me a code to my phone number so i can’t even get past the start page :(

App is completely dead with - very small user base. Don’t waste your time; feeld has a much larger user base for the ENM crowd.
