Has anyone used this dating app? Seems like it's mostly used by college students, but I was intrigued by the idea.

    I downloaded earlier today. It seems the majority of the girls in my area (25 mile radius) are 18-24. I clicked through a bunch earlier and have 1 match so far. I'll give it a few days and report back.

    There do seem to be a TON of people in my area.

    Yes, please keep us posted!! I live in such a college town (Boston) that I'm worried it will ONLY be college-age people here.

    The concept is great. You can't even send a message to someone unless you have both expressed interest, so your time and creativity is put to good use. I am starting to see more in the 26-30 range, but nothing really beyond that.

    So I downloaded it and there are so many babies on there! There really needs to be an age filter - I'm 33 and there are soooo many 18 year olds! I haven't found one interesting person yet but I'll try it for a few days and see - good concept but definitely needs filters :)

    One week later:

    - Three matches
    - Two of those matches replied to a message
    - Each reply was one line, then nothing

    I get the impression that a ton of people sign up for this thing - some sort of campus promotion - and then don't really use it. The majority of the users are too young, which probably contributes to my own lack of matches.

    most are too young, but you'll find more people that aren't on internet dating sites.

    Thank you for being our guinea pig and reporting back! lol
