Site Features

This online dating service is feature rich, with fun games, and messaging options that let people get to know each other even better while having more fun too. Other profile features include the following:

Upload Images - Include a profile photo, and photos to include on your member profile.
User Information - Share information like gender, birth date, country, ethnicity, etc.
Preference Setup - Save location, gender preference, physical specs, "looking for", children, marital status, interests, longest relationship, smoking/drinking habits, religion, profession, pets, dating intentions, income, family info, etc.
Profile Tags - Headline, description, interests, and a bit describing you.

Favorites & "Viewed By" - Set your favorites by including any members you're interested in, and refer to your "Favorites" anytime. See which members view your profile with the "Viewed By" feature.
Matches - Find your Secret Admirer with the "Match" tool.

Local Emphasis

MeetMe allows members to search for matches locally that live within so many miles of their set location. This allows for smoother dates when members decide to meet up in real life. Local dates help members get to know people they may be interested that already live nearby, rather than focusing on people everywhere. Most online dating sites allow users to search locally but Meet Me, makes this the main focus of their website and while on the member profile.

High Mobile Ratings

Users can download the MeetMe app through Google Play or the App Store. Both apps have a large number of reviews and high ratings:

MeetMe: Chat & Meet New People for Android.This app has 715k reviews and an average rating of 4.2/5 stars
MeetMe - Chat and Meet New People for iOS. This app has 86k reviews and an average rating of 4/5 stars

Many users say the app is safe and enjoyable - an overall great way to meet people. Major complaints include that the app frequently freezes and crashes.

COPPA Compliant

MeetMe.com is in compliance with COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act). The MeetMe system is made to restrict any children/teens under 13 years old from using the site, which keeps the site more safe overall.

Average Safety and Verification

Users can block and report a person, but MeetMe does not perform background checks or sweep their site for bots. Luckily, to join the site, customers must verify their email address or social profile - but this is very easy information to fake. One unique feature MeetMe has the SocialVerify Badge. It is used to authenticate profiles and rid the site of bots. SocialVerify is free and only takes connected to a Facebook account with at least 50 friends. The site is littered with spammy ads, which makes the site look even less trustworthy and raises some red flags.

The Bad

Limited User Information
Need to Upgrade

Limited User Information

Information on the member profiles is pretty standard and does leave much room to add answers or to explain more about themselves to other members. This site has more of a friend approach and isn't set up to be the most specific matching or dating site available. This site is meant to spotlight singles and give them an opportunity to meet up and interact online. The mobile version of MeetMe is loaded with ads and seems to offer limited search options compared to what users get on the actual website.

Need to Upgrade

Although MeetMe is free to join there are features that only VIP members get access to. Without paying some of the features won't even work. Paid features include more "lunch money," increased priority with "owned" photos, more match potential, more games with max limits, and increases on profile and friends.

The Bottom Line

This is a fun dating site if customers are looking to join online daters today. This is one of the most popular online dating sites available today and offers unique dating options just by providing more casual ways for members to connect and meet new people. The app is available for download on Android, iPhone, and iPad devices in the Google Play and iTunes store. MeetMe is easy to use and offers fun features that help members connect to dates quickly and casually. MeetMe strives to keep people connecting in fun and engaging ways and creating genuine relationships.

However, users should be aware that while the app and site are free to join, some features won't work. Also, the site has spammy ads which might raise some red flags. Overall, the site doesn't cater to just dating, those looking to chat or make friends are also welcome. If customers are looking for a genuine dating site, MeetMe might not be the answer. However, the site does seem to have some potential for users in the dating aspect.

Fake full of bots. Meetme allows this. Site should be able to do a quick and easy sweep once a month for fake users. They don’t, because 75% of there “users” are fake accounts.

Unhappy Customer

I have been using MeetMe since 2021 to watch Live streams. I enjoyed using the app for that purpose because the quality of its streamers, the content & viewers were great. However, over the last year (and particularly since I started streaming regularly in 2022), the app has become toxic, racist, and dangerous. For anyone thinking about joining MeetMe, you should think twice. Although the app is categorized as a dating app, it has become an app for criminals and criminal activity. By this I mean, there are inmates in jails and prisons throughout the world watching and listening to MeetMe's Live Streamers. There are also violent & dangerous people, drug dealers, ex-cons, prostitutes, stalkers, sex offenders, and pedophiles using the app to stream and watch live streams. Although some of these people are on the app simply for entertainment, many are on it looking for their next victim. A friend I made on the app (a single young mother in her 20s) was targeted by a man who found her on the MeetMe/Plenty of Fish platform back when both companies operated together under “The Meet Group.” The man saw this young woman's profile and from there, tracked her on another social media platform, where he began messaging her. After communicating online for some time, this young woman met him in person and within three (3) days, the man beat her up and threatened to kill her and her one (1) year old child. This young woman had no idea that the man who found her on Meetme and messaged her was an ex-felon that was out on probation after serving several years in prison for physically assaulting various women, one of whom he tied up and kept in a basement. My friend reported this man to The Meet Group to make sure that his profile was removed. The Meet Group removed the man’s profile but within a few days he had created a new account and was back on the MeetMe app. If this is not bad enough, there are many people on the app that are nasty and try to bully others. There are those who make racist comments, threaten violence, and those that try to scam and intimidate other streamers and viewers into sending them money (wire transfers). There are also those that ask for diamonds (gifts that a viewer can send to a Live streamer) and will not speak to you if you do not send any. The problem is not that these types of people are on MeetMe. The problem is that MeetMe does not do much to keep people like this off their app, or to keep their Live streamers safe. If you are scammed by someone on the app and report that person to MeetMe, MeetMe may ban/delete that user’s account, but that user will create a new profile and be back on the app to scam someone else. If you are called vulgar/hateful/racist names by a racist user or viewer (this includes other Live streamers), MeetMe will NOT ban that user if they are a “Top Badge” or earn a lot of money for the app. If someone on MeetMe threatens you with physical violence, MeetMe will not ban that person's account. They will instead ban yours (this is what happened to me). This is what it's like to use MeetMe…MeetMe does not care about its streamers. MeetMe also profiles their streamers. For example, if you are person of Asian or Hispanic origin and you are new to streaming, MeetMe will not do anything to help you become a popular streamer. They will instead focus their efforts on white streamers and black streamers, most of whom are in America. They will not offer you a featured show like they do for people of ethnicities/backgrounds they prefer. They will also block your IP address if they do not like you so you will not be able to log into their app. In sum, do not invest your time or money into Meetme. They support crime, violence, drug use, racism (which is promoted on the MeetMe platform through its Live streamers) and they have no respect or concern for their members safety.

There are some fraudsters opening accounts with other peoples photos and names to extort money from people. I have encountered many of them and most of them are from Nigeria. So ladies especially be care those you chat with. Some will use military men photos to pretend its them. they use white male often. always ask questions and check their response well. I just feel the app should be able to suspect a phone number or internet source that open several account with them and also check their photos and background if possible. The app has become a playground to these criminals to use to dupe people.

Ive used this site for years. Im a guy in my early 30,s. I like to check this site often for messages or notifications. Ive waisted so much time on this site for years. There is so much women who dont reply to anyone and want attention. There is lots of women who want to promote themselves on meetme being from other sites. There is many women who lie about situations to get money. There is tons of scammers tons and tons. The site can be addicting dont get addicted to meetme and try better sites.

If I could give less than 1 star I would. Site is full of spam/fake accounts, often using images of porn stars to draw people in. They then try to get people to go to webcam chat sites that require credit card information in order to rob you blind. No matter how many accounts like this I report, MeetMe does nothing about it. They seem to actually support these accounts, giving them free premium accounts. Instead I get blocked from messaging any real person I do find on the site for an undisclosed amount of time, and cannot be given a reason as to why. The people who run MeetMe need to be arrested for promoting sex trafficking and theft.

This is a scam of an application who will not listen to hundreds of emails about a troll I picked up using their app who trolled me because I wouldn’t give him diamonds and reported him to the police gave them evidence of him admitting to being a troll a jealous troll at that and who recorded my stream and proceeded to upload me on other media outlets which I believe is illegal to do and meetme do not care how this has affected me I’ve wrote hundreds of emails to them and still do showing the evidence and this troll Kevin M M aka kB aka Ghost aka M O D B O T is still on their application and trolling people still for diamonds who is also a convicted criminal and allowed to do what he does “troll streamers for diamonds” if you have any sense stay away from the “Meet Group” they don’t care about hard evidence of a troll admitting he’s a troll I’ve sent them many emails now proving it……it’s a scam app for trolls and fake streamers like Kevin M M

Complete and utter garbage. Shouldn't even be allowed to be on the play store. Constantly receiving messages and likes from bots, incessantly persisting you click a sketchy link that goes who knows where. Pretty sure people are prostituting there, and flagging the actual real profiles that actually want to date. The positive reviews are mostly all bots, judging by how short most of them are. The bots send nudes without any issue. They get banned, then come right back. Huge gaping hole in their security. It's dog shit, but honestly I think I'd prefer the dog shit. At least I could fertilize stuff with that.

Meetme would delete your account for no reason, and you won't get support getting your account back; most women and men are dating each other already or dating other people. Everyone on this app is a streamer and only cares for the diamonds. If you don't gift, they won't pay you any additional attention unless they think you're going to gift them(which they called showing support). Still, they might not support you depending on your status, or if they think you got mental problems, they might feel sorry for you and even then understand you don't have a chance. This isn't a dating app, and if you like to be spoken to like a child, it's the perfect app for you—other than that, most of the people are fake celebrities with alarming personalities And poor conversations(which adults shouldn't be having these types of discussions still). The streamers only care about the money on your debit card or credit card. You could gift as much as you like and still get played. Don't be telling people all your business on here. They don't care about finding anyone to date, and Most of the time, you are the joke. The levels mean nothing to the rich, so don't be spending money you don't have because your account would disappear, and now you wasted money on the app for nothing.

I signed up with the facebook using validate with facebook feature. i didnt create a profile or upload pics. it seems facebook allowed them access to my picture folder within facebook, meetme is using something for m profile pic that is not consistent with my FB profile pic, nor is it a likeness of me, i learned this latter same day when i started getting replies. I am unable to log back into site no matter what i do. also tried creating a new account using another email address just so i could see my profile as others see it. so i am a member of a dating site that i cant log into, they are showing inaccurate representation of me and nothing i can do about it. also i bought there stock about a week before signing up, there stock is performing better than their website

It would appear that Meetme is effectively stealing account information from unsuspecting Facebook users, through vacuous links to a site about Horoscopes. I know of at least four people who clicked this link and within days started getting email notifications from Meetme. When they opened the mails it took them to their account on Meetme, an account they didn't open. More disturbingly there were photos of their family and children stolen too. Anyone who has spent more than 20 minutes on Meetme will be aware that this is NO PLACE to post photos of children!! The site is rife with scammers and predators! It is also worrying that last year Meetme changed its TOC to say that if you upload photos, the site effectively owns them even if you delete your account, your pics will stay on there servers for them to do with what they wish. There are literally thousands of these accounts being opened every week on Meetme and most are unaware that their Facebook profile has been abused in this way. The app information says you have to be 17 to download it yet the TOC says children as young as 13 can open accounts. The mild sexual content they describe is actually being inundated on a daily basis with men sending pics of their gentialia! The block button is useless unless the person you block, blocks you too. There is absolutely no support from admin and Meetme are only concerned with membership numbers. They also frequently advertise sex and dating sites. Please, please keep your kids away from here!

This site is just nothing but a scam. 99% of the people who are on here have things added to the photos saying pretty much if you want a blowjob or sex go here and here is my cashapp. I wake up and I already have over 30 profiles that are just like what I got done saying. I would bet my bottom dollar that this site is nothing more than a sex trafficking site. I hope Meetme will get shutdown and be taken to court.

While there are SO many things I could complain about regarding this app, the number one most annoying thing is the ads. Normally, I look past the ads. But these ads play with just audio, no video. There's no way to find it and shut it off. Even if you get out of the app or turn off your phone, the ad still continues running until its done. And the only way to stop it is to force close the app. This is the ONLY app that I know of that has ever done this with ads. RIDICULOUS.

They're a fake app. At least 99.9% of the profiles are fake spammers that try to rob you of money. here they are banning real people for no reason, and doing absolutely nothing about the fake spammers making up 99.9٪ of the user profiles you see on that site. Idk who is running that site but they should be lined up against the wall and kicked in the dick one by one.

I have used this app way back before it was launched as meetme it started off like a decade ago as myyearbook.. and changed to meetme probably a year or so later. This app was bomb af when it first launched and serval years after.. it wasn't until they started offering live streaming.. and gifts to top streamers..is when this app started going down hill fast! As a guy writing this review, girls only come on this app for diamonds period. Diamonds translates to cash.

If I could give MeetMe zero stars, I would. They have a huge problem with fake profiles--I'd say at least half the accounts on there are fake. The remaining 50% largely consists of people promoting their IG/SC profiles and trying to get followers, or prostitutes looking to turn tricks. MM must know about the problem, it's just that they refuse to do anything about it because fake profiles still mean increased traffic and more members.

Been on this site for a few yrs. Apparently they delete your profile and you wont be able to try making a new account. I made friends with a couple. One was a 76 yr old who looked up to me and we shared our expeirencek with this horrible site. I feel bad we no longer have connection. She had gone some serious series of cancer treatments and now this horrid site has deleted our profiles and any communications with any of our old friends.

i have had two accounts by this site, both closed for no reason. what kind of site takes your account for talking about football and work, with friends. and their only response is that i violated TOS, how I'm not sending nude pics, or stalking anyone or harassing anyone, I'm talking about football. If your suppose to meet people using this site that's great but it goes no further after that, no phone numbers, or email address or contact information is allowed to be exchanged, Someone complains about you and they accept it and ban you with no reason for it.
