BeeDee: Non-vanilla Dating App

Overall satisfied with my experience so far, app is very user-friendly and is well-maintained. I find most of the negative reviews to be moot as the app doesn’t charge for anything every other dating app doesn’t also charge for, and in fact seems to offer more free/unique features than most others. Pros: The test is seamlessly included in profiles, making compatibility easy to assess. I haven’t encountered even a single bot/fake account/scammer so far which cannot be said for any other app I’ve tried. Users are much more likely to actually read your profile here as the buttons to like or decline are placed at the bottom of the page. Developers are transparent, friendly, and helpful. Interface is easy to use and not cluttered, nor are there constant ads like other apps. Previously declined profiles can be reevaluated for free unlike other major apps. Cons: Free users are limited to 10 likes per day, though this is hardly a con in my opinion as it encourages more thoughtful matching. FAQ section, while solid, seemingly has not been updated in a long time. Website and in-app contact forms appear to be outdated or non-functional, but developers respond quickly on socials. Discovery filters are basic, only allowing for gender, age, and distance (+ignore/allow country borders). Again, overall a great app, pros greatly outweigh the cons for me. Sad to see so many negative reviews when my experience has been nothing but positive, would absolutely recommend.

I got this app as a way to explore kinkier relationships. This app is good for presenting that side of yourself (and, ya know, the other stuff) and it has a nice feel and look. I have no complaints about the mechanics, but there are some fundamental issues I’ve found with this version. To begin, matches seemed to be made on who have similar interests as you—with some kinks (being submissive, for example), you want a complimentary person (a domme, for example), not a similar person. Additionally, to see other people that have liked your profile, you have to pay $20 a month, a rather hefty fee for what feels like a basic function to optimize your search. Good idea and base, but it has some serious flaws that make it feel rather empty.

When accidentally liking someone, there’s a bug that keeps you from being able to click the 3 dots on their name- so the only way to unlike them is to report them and then select the block option. Additionally, better searching systems would also help. Overall though this is fantastic.
