![]() ![]() I swiped and matched with a handful of guys, but after a few off-putting messages, I found myself to feel a bit discouraged. So I was curious to see what type of guys I would have the option of meeting on this app.Ĭontrary to my expectations for the other apps, I was expecting some quality matches and conversations on here.but my results were quite the opposite. My thoughts on it: I know Bumble isn't necessarily considered a hookup app, but I've heard from friends about some weird encounters on there. You can also choose to include answers to prompts, similar to Hinge, to get a better sense of other people's interests and personality. I liked this because it meant I wasn't receiving weird, off-the-bat messages like the other apps allow. In male-female matches, women are required to make the first move so that we're more in control of the conversation. How does the app work? Bumble has its users swipe on profiles that show multiple photos and a brief bio of each person. The only positive I found with using POF was that you don't have to spend a lot of your time swiping away like other apps before actually chatting with someone. Most of the other messages I received were guys asking for my number right away (see picture above) or asking to wrestle (um, what?). I expected this app to be a little more PG than ones like Yumi - but I probably only had about two normal/non-sexual conversations out of many. My thoughts on it: I've heard of success stories on POF so I figured it couldn't be that bad, but the majority of the messages I received were guys being very forward or just asking the most bizarre sexual things. Photos pop up of profiles that you can like or pass on, the app has a livestream feature (I was scared of what that even was), and you can message anyone or reply to those who messaged you. There are multiple ways you can connect with someone. Why is everyone allowed to message anyone they want before even matching or liking one another? The app also asks the most random questions about your preferences and personality more than any other app I've tried. Going into it, I'd heard of a lot of people using Plenty of Fish, so I'm curious if I'm the only one who doesn't grasp the concept of it. How does the app work? This app was even more confusing than the last. ![]() But basically, this is solely a hookup app, as most of you probably already figured by the time you got to this final conclusion. Some photos on there were normal selfies, while others were shirtless thirst traps. ![]() There was at least variety in profile photos. By accident I flipped cards when I meant to "x" out of them, resulting in me getting some creepy messages from guys I already wasn't into. I also found the app - and its "game" to flip cards to show that you like someone - to be a little confusing. But I tried my best to be optimistic with low expectations and see if there was anyone on there who had different intentions than just a "Yumi" hookup. ![]() Granted, it's literally described as a "hookup and anonymous chat app," so I knew what I was getting myself into. My thoughts on it: Okay, sooo.Yumi is just as skeevy as it sounds. In the app, you flip cards, and if the cards on both ends flip, it's a match - and you can message the other person. The only info it asks for is the general location of where you live so it can create local matches. You can also make your profile anonymous by placing emojis over your face or even blurring your entire profile picture.Ĭlearly, the app is trying to make people feel less weird for just wanting a little sexy time with a stranger. How does the app work? The interesting thing about Yumi is that it doesn't require any of your personal details. ![]()
