Boo — Dating. Friends. Chat.
doubtful ratingAn app with an unusual idea: matchmaking based on personality types. Real users appreciate the atmosphere. It feels less superficial than competitors, and people willing to talk by interest do turn up. The problem is scale: in most regions the audience is tiny, matches arrive from other countries rather than nearby, and bots from third countries appear. Actual dates are rare. The app works more as an online social space.
textAvg 3.81 is noticeably below the store rating of 4.17, a moderate gap. A visible share of five-star reviews are short and empty ('Boo Boo boo boo boo...', 'Blah blah Blah blah'). Several reviews directly mention accounts from third countries being used as bots. No definitive proof of rating inflation, but the character of the five-star reviews raises questions.
What users love
- The personality-type matching mechanic feels genuine. The atmosphere is kinder and more human than on Tinder or Hinge. The social tab with interest groups provides a place to talk beyond direct matching.
What users hate
- A small live audience in most cities. Bots and accounts from distant countries clutter the feed. Real meetings almost never happen even after months of chatting.
Who it is for
Introverts and personality-type enthusiasts open to online friendship without rushing toward an offline date. A poor fit for anyone looking for a partner in a specific city.
