Bottled: Message in a Bottle

I stumbled across this application following some nostalgia fueled remembrance of a former similar application on the original iPhone. That application had you receiving random bottles on your virtual beach, and starting correspondence based on those initial bottles. Exceptionally similar, although I’m not sure if they’re related, this application expands on that concept in many ways, allowing you to exchange photos to compliment your dialogue. I also appreciate how this application sternly promotes a positive environment, and warns against unwanted sexual advances or harassment. This further promotes genuine, kind hearted dialogue with persons abroad that allows you to share cultural and geographic nuances, which overall can enhance the users perspective of the world we share. Purchases are available to slightly enhance the experience, but are in no way necessary or forced upon you by the developer, which is greatly appreciated. For that reason, I intend to make a small but needless purchase just to show my appreciation for the application and its developers. I’ve used this application to replace my social media use, and share meaningful interactions around the world. 10/10; would toss a bottle into the abyss again.

Overall the app is a blessing because there are literally no spamming ads! On here you can voluntarily click one on a treasure chest that is a short ad for getting a free bottle or coin which is so sweet as it is always available in case you want to talk to more people in the day. They genuinely want you to meet new people and learn more about other countries, it’s not a greedy app. Recommendations: You should let followers/friends get notifications whenever someone posts an adventure so they’ll know in case someone has to be away for a while or is leaving for good to deter the assumption of ghosting. Please, can we clip pictures on our adventures without having to pay? Or at least give the option of watching an ad for it? Finally, it would be neat if we could create groups that anyone could join for friendly group chats! Wouldn’t it be cool if in able to get people to join you send out a dolphin worth like 50 coins/bottles with a letter from the admin themselves?

i wanted to let people know that i honestly enjoyed this app. To me it was half video game and half meeting chatting with people I have been a loyal bottled customer for about seven months. On september twenty-third 2018 my account was hacked such a major dissappointment and upsetting situation for me. All my friends are now left wondering what happened to me and some of those friendships I truly valued . I am very saddened that this has happened to me. My photo was hacked as well as my biography . i curse the person who hacked into my account For the innocents now you have my experience to take.

It’s easy to use and it’s WONDERFUL to meet so many different kinds of people! It’s sort of an extroverted world for introverts. Took a while to start earning enough reputation points to receive bottles, in the beginning, but it’s definitely worth it. I’ve met people I didn’t like and people that have been my friends for over a year, now. There’s no obligation to be anything but kind if you aren’t getting what you are hoping for. Your information is limited on here. I’m very thankful for this app because it means the world to me. Thank you!!!

I downloaded this app looking to meet people from around the world and I definitely have! I’ve meet great people that genuinely want to get to know me! Some of our conversations have even moved to WhatsApp and we chat regularly. My only issue is that I keep getting bottles from India, which I have nothing against India, but I want some variety. I know there’s an option to purchase a compass to where you can pick which country your bottle goes to, but I still feel like there should be a little more variation on a normal basis.
