Much better app than Grindr

Much better app than Grindr. The amount of people you see depends on how many people are around. Change a few filters and a wider range shows up. You can prevent messages from anonymous profiles which can safeguard you from nasty racists. Could use some more work auto removing the spam bots.

Limited View

Used to be way better! They started limited the view. Radius feature and it's horrible. Makes the app completely useless now. Just another money grab by a greedy company. 1 more app to add to the do not use collection.

Silent support, spam factory & Premium payment swindle.

No response to account issues and excessive spam messages swamp your account.

The hidden setting to disable auto-payments is always annoying.

When I’ve turned off ‘auto-renewal’ it’s reverted me back to a general account (from the premium version) with 5 months remaining.

Used to be a great site…

Used to be a great site and then like most things they got to greedy. Now they want upwards of $10/week just to be able to use primary features. They added a radius that for me is comprised of about 25% water and parks and limits me to only viewing guys within about a 1.25 mile radius which is nothing in nyc. Not to mention since the radius was added there have been multiple times where the radius is way off to the point where even my profile is outside of it. On top of that about 1/3 of the messages I recieve are just spam bots advertising other fake sites. Even when they are real they end up being esc○it's half the time which more power to them but it becomes incredibly annoying when you're just trying to meet like minded people. The anon feature also allows for a lot of abuse and harassment. There's little point in blocking someone if they can just create another anonymous profile to message you over and over and over again. Again this used to be an amazing site then they became purely profit driven and now it's getting worse each week.

wow, no more

wow! glad to see i am not alone in how i am experiencing sniffies. It used to be good. the amount of fake profiles, ive blocked over 300 profiles, didnt matter, reported to admin over 200, no response and now it runs so slow, solidifys how I dont want to be on it anymore. And they are testing a "dating": sniffies app, sounded promising, but not with all these reviews and issues.

Sniffies is very poorly designed

Sniffies is very poorly designed. There is no stopping anyone from using your photos on their profile (or to create a new one). I’ve had that happen to me and when I confronted the perpetrator, he blocked me. So I created an anonymous profile to locate him and when I did, there is no option to report the cruiser on anonymous profile. I had to create a brand new screen name, and profile in order to find his and then report it. Additionally customer service is non-existent.

Not useable on some providers

After using Sniffies for quite a while I NO longer can access it at home. I've spent a couple of weeks going back and forth with Sniffies support.
Their final answer is I would need to change internet providers. I personally think they don't know what their doing.

Sniffles Sucks


Well, I will tell you my experience is terrible. It will not let me see other members. I am all alone. I try to refresh and refresh. I logged out and logged out and I cannot get anything out of this app. It is the worst. This has been an absolute nightmare. I paid for six months. I’ve been on it for a little over a month and it’s gotten worse and worse and worse there is no one that you can contact or anything. My only choice is to delete the app and I will lose all my money.
