REVIEW
The huge members’ database ensures that you will have plenty of choices. The interface is user-friendly and intuitive; though some people dislike a feeling that they are pushed toward paying for extra features or inviting friends.
Features
There are several options to attract more interest to your profile: “Rise Up” and “Spotlight” features. With the activated “Rise Up” feature your profile will be placed in the top of the relevant searches, thus your chances to boost initial contacts increase. With activated ‘Spotlight’ your profile will be shown on the top of all pages relevant to your location. ‘Special Powers’ will activate all extra features. The app operates as a ‘geo-social network’, giving you the possibility to get in touch with people having the same thoughts and tastes.
It is possible to search by interest. It is always easier to start communication if you have some common topics to discuss! In order to begin click on ‘Select interests’ pull-down and choose either one of your existing interests or enter something else, then click ‘Update results’.
The sign-up process is simple. If you join using your Facebook account, the site will do most of the work for you, in particular, it will automatically add all the main information about you from your Facebook profile. Then you will be able to add some more personal details, such as appearance, relationship and parental status, attitude to smoking and drinking, etc. Also, you can fill in the field where you will describe yourself in your own words and “interests” section. If you want to get matches in accordance with your interests then this section is worth filling.
Prices will differ based on the country in which Badoo is used. The cost of VIP membership is $49.99 per month.
Badoo is proud to support the Internet Watch Foundation, which is fighting criminal content online for 15 years. Protecting the safety and privacy of the users is a crucial point, and this is why Badoo is not only engaged with self-regulatory bodies like the IWF, the Information Commission and the EU Social Networks Group but also works hard to provide the users with the best tools to control how much information they make available to other members. Still no one is perfect, Badoo has been cited in reports as having problems with privacy, fake accounts and money scammers.
Badoo makes no promises that you will meet your wife or a husband on the site. Still they encourage joining, as according to a survey 23% of online daters say they ended up marrying the partner they met through a dating site or app.
