LOVOO - Dating App & Chat App
gamed ratingA German-origin app operating globally but with zero geolocation filtering: it shows people from other countries and continents. Real people from the same city are a rarity. Scammers write first and redirect to WhatsApp or Hangouts. The streaming feature is the only working tool for spotting fakes.
79% five-star ratings but 30 of 55 substantive reviews name scams. Several five-star reviews themselves acknowledge the prevalence of scammers ('a lot of scams, but that happens with all sites'). Some five-star reviews look incentivized. One is literally about looking for anti-fascism through dating.
What users love
- The stream feature lets you see a live person and immediately identify a fake. Several users found real partners and report long-term relationships.
What users hate
- No distance filter makes matchmaking meaningless. Scammers make up the overwhelming majority of incoming contacts. By one user's estimate
- Two out of 200 men turned out to be real.
Who it is for
Suitable for those willing to chat with people from other countries for social purposes rather than meetings, who know how to recognize scam patterns.
