A block limit at all is ridiculous! But a cap of 50 on a platform with thousands of users is totally unacceptable.

★★★★★ The new app simply doesn't work at present, either not providing access, freezing or logging you out when you do get it.
★★★★★ That's assuming you can even get into the app in the first place, as it logs you out constantly, crashes and today refuses to even start up at all.
★★★★★ It's now poorly designed and thought out, long chats take ages to load before you can even answer to the point where the app looks like it's crashed.
49 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ The error message says that I need to update to the latest app.
★★★★★ The last update, besides the various points made by others, has wiped some of my conversations with specific individuals.
★★★★★ The old one was ok and useable but the new version is truly shocking.
39 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ The error message says that I need to update to the latest app.
★★★★★ This level of bug means that it is getting nearer to being unusable.
★★★★★ an error message constantly pops up at bottom of screen.

★★★★★ Yes, it was a huge project but they still rake in the money for something thats no longer worth paying for
★★★★★ I have just cancelled my newly renewed subscription.
★★★★★ When I contacted you with this and requested a refund for membership you simply referred me to Apple and never acknowledged or apologised for the issues.
23 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ And today it disappeared some - but not all - messages in a conversation.
★★★★★ I think I have lost all interest in the app.
★★★★★ Ya should of just updated the old version and left it how it was … since beeing on the new site I dont seen to get much in the way of chat anymore and theres no way of telling if someones on line like the old version…
22 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ This new app is terrible to use, still laggy and UI disjointed with huge profile tiles vs tiny links at the bottom of the screen.
★★★★★ It lags significantly at present - it shows you have a new message but even refreshing doesn't show it.
★★★★★ So much to fix and Recon being far too slow.
21 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ I have to go to my desktop and sign in to use the site.
★★★★★ Having to sign in repeatedly is particularly annoying and creates unnecessary friction for daily app users.
★★★★★ Since the app was updated I've not been able to login.
15 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ As a premium member, why am I receiving 3 “messages” per day which are simply adverts?
★★★★★ The app keeps force closing itself and redirecting to App Store to advertise 3rd party apps! Can you please fix this!
★★★★★ The ads are soooo annoying , sometimes you get stuck in a loop of ads you have to shut down the app and re open to even do anything
Nothing stands out.
6 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ Love it!I recommend this app to everyone !
★★★★★ It's very good, having access to Recon on iOS, easy to use and very straight forward.
★★★★★ Easy to use, simple and straight to the point!
3 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ It works nice and fast, has some basic filters for basic members and notifications are working as expected!!
★★★★★ Simple, easy to use and very quick.
★★★★★ The functionality is very smooth and easy to use - far better than trying to use the web site version via safari and as Recon is the contacts site I use most, this will be a real boon.
2 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ Location updates are much more accurate I've noticed too.
★★★★★ Well done, what a great improvement. Now it doesn't crash constantly and I can actually talk to people and have met some very sexy men.
2 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ Have disabled auto update and restored old backup to stay ad free.

A block limit at all is ridiculous! But a cap of 50 on a platform with thousands of users is totally unacceptable.
Very temperamental when not connected to wifi. Ie no good when you’re travelling. Won’t log in. Other competitors’ apps work so why not theirs? All the other problems since the rebuild are well documented and the owners have apologised and written in length. Yes, it was a huge project but they still rake in the money for something thats no longer worth paying for
I get messages from Recon saying that I haven’t been seen for a long time. But I can’t open the app on my iPad mini 4. The error message says that I need to update to the latest app. But when I go to the App Store, i find that it is up to date…. What should I do?
Pathetic. App unstable. Have to keep updating my location every time I use it. I open a message and can’t reply. App freezes. I have to go to my desktop and sign in to use the site. Truly awful experience and not worth the one star. It’s a good contraceptive though.
The last update, besides the various points made by others, has wiped some of my conversations with specific individuals. And today it disappeared some - but not all - messages in a conversation. This level of bug means that it is getting nearer to being unusable. I have just cancelled my newly renewed subscription. Should the problems continue I will have no choice but to walk away completely.
This is no doubt the worst app I’ve ever used. The old one was ok and useable but the new version is truly shocking. Some of the features just don’t work and you can’t even upload photos to your albums anymore. The people who coded this need fired. It’s a hack job at best. Claude code can actually do much better
