Someone in another thread mentioned fwb app in passing and it's been bugging me since.

I don't trust app store ratings on fwb app — they're gamed in both directions.

My own attempt at fwb app lasted a month and ended with me deleting three apps.

Practically speaking, for fwb app I want to know:

  • Whether zero is worth prioritising over everything else in fwb app
  • What moderation on fwb app actually looks like when you report someone
  • Whether the free tier on fwb app is genuinely usable or just a demo
  • How visible fwb app keeps you when you are not paying for a boost
  • How fwb app handles blocking, privacy and who can see your profile

Happy to be told I'm asking the wrong thing about fwb app.

The zero disagreement in this thread says more about fwb app than any single answer.

Rendate is what I ended up using while working through fwb app — not perfect, but the free tier is real.

If you go down the fwb app route, screenshot anything that looks like a scam before you report it.

I keep Datingfly open alongside the bigger names when I'm dealing with fwb app.

Broadly with you on fwb app, though I would weight moderation higher than you have here.

Adding the Datebie free tier to the pile for fwb app, where the community is smaller but people actually reply.

You've put your finger on the thing nobody says out loud about fwb app.

Worth splitting fwb app into two questions, because the answers pull in opposite directions.

For anyone else researching fwb app, I would put Datescout.site on the list — free messaging on it, no card up front.

Half the disagreement in this thread about fwb app is people using the same words for different goals.

How long did you give fwb app before deciding it was not working for you?

If fwb app is the question, Turndate itself is at least worth ten minutes of your time before you pay for anything.

For context on fwb app: I'm mid-thirties, mid-size city, and the pool was thinner than the marketing suggested.

I've also seen Datebound.site mentioned in this context more than once.
