4/5Poor management
They rejected a screen shot I made of THEIR own text system, and contained a translation for English to Spanish that said: sorry, I don’t speak Spanish. Yet, they allowed a number of other copy/paste texts I’ve used in the past. Of it’s an AI, they failed to mpt it correctly. If it’s a human who made this decision, you should be consistent, and ban all image captures of texts from YOUR app! Also, it’s ok to post XXX-rated photos, but mild in-x rated texts are banned? What’s wrong with that concept! From no on, you’ll get consistent poor ratings from me, and I’m posting it to all 40,000 Facebook followers, 10,000 instagram friends, and every other social app I use. And I use a lot, from Reddit to Whstsapp! If I could rate you NO STARS, I would. You need to rethink your silly censorship tools. They aren’t operable in a real world setting.

5/5Dear admin,
Helping us to see beyond our circle and getting to see and know not just friends within our reach but also beyond us, I appreciate the admin I never expect, meeting amazing guys Once again I urge you to please unblock my acc so I can get to text again. Firstly, I want to thank you ( admin ) for unblocking my acc. In this great app. It hurts when you’re almost there but can’t do more. I think I have a limited access, I can’t get to see more, just the same few pictures ( profiles ) and I can’t get responses neither do I think my text gets to the few I like. It’s nice here, having gat to see great people same as you and having to be your self and not feel unwanted is to me best thing. I will be eternally grateful if you can make me have a unlimited access and my texts being delivered, I will appreciate it. Thank you guys for putting this great app up, you may not have known how happy I am. Thank you as I anticipate your loving response I’m still stuck here, you guys should please help me out, I tried to go for the Plus but still can’t. I’m getting tired already, I can’t get a plus, I mean I tried but it’s taking ages and my friends can’t send in messages across neither can they receive Maine. Thank you already knowing you will attend to it 💋

4/5Friend/Saved Contacts Search
I’m asking again for this because I think it would be one of the most useful features, but can we PLEASE have a way to search only for our contacts? In the main search it would be great to have a friends/contacts filter so you can see who you’ve friended or saved/chatted with that’s in the geographic area. It would save a lot of time and help facilitate things. I hope you can make this a feature soon! Thanks so much!

3/5Some good points
This site shows some improvements over other similar sites and seems to draw a different crowd. But the instructions are limited and in many cases it is not user-friendly. For example I have searched all over and cannot find the button to simply delete unwanted messages. The other buttons are not labeled and you have to press them to find out what they are and by then it may be too late such as the share hidden pictures button and then thereIs no way to undo that action. Worst of all is the list of professions. It is woefully in adequate. I am a geneticist. I don’t expect to see that. But there is no health, medicine, public health, or anything remotely related to science. The items that are there in many cases are never used. Please redo this list with actual professions in mind.

5/5Mr.
I very much appreciate the quality of your customer care , which I thinks sets the gold standard for gay dating sites. On the other hand, unfortunately, Romeo does not seem to be fashionable/have much traction in the North Western part of Italy where I live. There are hardly any new entries, and you can go on for months without any contacts made or received. A real pity, because I also find - on average - users of Romeo to be better behaved that those of other dating apps. Not sure how you could create a buzz around yourself and exponentially increase the number of your followers in a country as prone to useless fashions as mine. Food for thought …
