Skout Dating App & Live Chat
gamed ratingA once-lively community for casual socializing has degraded into a platform dominated by mass bots, scammers, and dead profiles. After the merger with Tagged, quality dropped critically: it is impossible to identify active users, moderation cannot keep up with the flood of fakes. Most real people you manage to reach are trying to redirect you to other platforms or extract money. Streamers have taken over the entire app space.
Store rating 4.37 with 74% five-star ratings absolutely does not match textAvg 1.90. Reviews overwhelmingly describe a dead, spam-filled app. Five-star reviews are anomalous: one is written in all caps from Nigeria about an access problem, another is in Portuguese about translation, a third is incoherent text. The pattern directly points to rating inflation by bots or incentivized accounts.
What users love
- In the past it was a place for real conversation without needing to match first. The swipe-free format appealed to those who just wanted to talk.
What users hate
- The overwhelming majority of accounts are bots or scammers. It is impossible to distinguish active users from those who have been inactive for a long time. Moderation does not respond to complaints. Updates break basic features.
Who it is for
The app is effectively unsuitable for socializing. Not recommended for anyone looking for genuine interaction.
