I thought this was a safe app

anyone else is this happening to?

2025/11/17 Edited to

... Read moreWhen using any app, especially those that require personal information or location access, it's crucial to understand the safety measures and privacy policies they implement. Users have reported feeling uncertain about the security standards of various apps, which can stem from unexpected ads, data sharing concerns, or suspicious behavior within the app. To ensure your safety while using such platforms, always check the app's permission settings on your device. Limit access to only necessary information and frequently review what data the app accesses. Moreover, reading through reviews and user feedback can give valuable insights into common issues others might be facing. If multiple users report suspicious or unsafe experiences, it’s a strong indicator to proceed with caution. Another effective practice is to keep the app updated, as developers regularly release patches fixing vulnerabilities. Activating security features such as two-factor authentication and using strong, unique passwords can further protect your account. For any concerns or unusual activity, reporting issues directly through the app’s support channels can help developers address problems promptly and enhance user safety. Remember, being proactive about digital safety not only protects your information but also contributes to a safer online community for all users.

So I know it's **mainly** women that post on this app, and that's cool. But I've been **receiving** mainly hate or rude comments on my posts to the point that I delete them. It was a simple post explaining that I've heard that apparently males were not wanted on this app by some.
