I love this idea, especially because you’re meeting a likeminded person and the dates are doing fun volunteer stuff. It makes it so much more comfortable than a first date at a random coffee shop.

I’ve been in the dating app game for a while. This app is such a breath of fresh air! So excited to see it grow like crazy and meet some community-minded matches!

So far I’m unimpressed. For the first 24 hours after I downloaded the app, every time I tried to login it was down. When I finally did get in, my profile lists my age as 0 even though I entered my birthdate, and I don’t know how you find other people on this app except for the 3 daily matches it offers up. I do appreciate all the volunteer opportunities listed, but wish it would show people who have already stated their interest or that they are going to be there. Maybe I haven’t met someone I want to go one-on-one with yet but would like to know there’s a group that will be there to hang with. Maybe this is all in the works, but I don’t understand why the app has launched at all without actually being usable.

I think this is a great idea and a good way to get to know someone in a more relaxed way. But, there are issues with the app’s functionality. Even though I’ve put in my ideal age range, my match Pool is way outside of it. There’s is also repetition of volunteer activities. They show up in my suggested match feed even after I’ve swiped right on them multiple times. Like other reviewers, I would like to have more than the three suggestions available in my feed.

I actually volunteer, so I thought this app would be a cool way to connect with similarly-interested individuals. My first encounter with the app was that it crashed while setting up the profile. Even after I set everything up again, the only thing it shows me are volunteer events (no potential matches), and while there are typically one or two women listed as going to the event, I can’t even figure out how to see their profile or know anything about them other than a tiny circular profile picture. Apparently you can “invite” someone who’s interested in going to a volunteer event, but they’re a total stranger that you haven’t even introduced yourself to at that point! The whole system is a mess! Very poor execution.
