Is Recon legit? What 300+ reviews say

Just keeps going backwards. Now I don’t even appear online so it is utterly useless. Not a single $ from me ever again.

New version a hot mess and not an improvement at all.

Your app has reached a whole new level of suck, Goodbye, no more $ for you

This used to be a very solid app. Now it feels like every other dating app with limited features and endless roadblocks that make it harder if not impossible to connect with people in the kink communi...

Updated my app lost my account reset password wouldn't work had to create a new one three months later same thing again.

Every fkn week they partner with a company selling poppers. In your messages, mandatory, cannot opt-out. Just STOP pushing poppers on everyone FFS.

Used to be a little clunky but serviceable, now it’s just awful. Filters don’t work, no built in read receipts, strange prioritization and interface layout, oof.

Just deactivated my account after probably 15+ years. It’s not a good experience to use the app, it’s too like social media, so many adds, complicated design and wonky interface. Also, never led to mu...

Fix the bugs don’t create more … so just now when the app shows a message exists and I click on the message notice, nothing shows up. I’ve rebooted and signed out and it’s definitely a problem. I’...

I’ve been a Recon premium member for many years. Cannot actually believe what the owners of this site did. but the biggest thing missing is the keyword search from profiles. If Recon is trying to enco...

Not sure how the powers that be could screw the app and platform experience up so drastically, but congratulations if that was the intent behind the upgrades. Sure the old site was outdated, but now a...

Horrible new Recon app. Does not work well on an Apple IPad. The former app was much better. I will not be renewing my subscription after many years on Recon. The nearby feature Does Not Work. Plu...

Just keeps going backwards

Don’t bother even downloading the iOS app. It is truly worthless. Just go to the website through Your internet browser. At least that works reasonably well. Literally the only thing that works abo...

The old app was clearly dated but the UX on the new version isn’t designed for mobile. Way too little information on the page; too much empty space; fonts too small; too much scrolling; too many taps ...

This sucks. I would buy a subscription once or twice a year while I was traveling and now that I’m about to again I signed on and none of this is user friendly. Paywall for regular public pics. Stats ...

The new version took away the search by keyword functionality. Bring it back. I do not like my followers seeing changes I make to my profile. Having every bio edit or minor photo change broadcast t...

This app is unusable because if the new update, super laggy, it signs you out for no reason and the message take a loong time to appear so you can’t really have a fluent conversation, at least add the...

I’ve been using Recon almost since its inception. This latest update is a disaster. Whoever provided the strategy failed. Do some customer research and build in some new features. It’s so sad to feel ...

This is what folks consider an upgrade? This is what was years in the making? Recon gets my thanks for supporting gay kink events. The best way to do that would be an App that works. Annm App worth p...

The antiquated, clumsy UX of the old version was replaced with this duplicate of the web interface that’s a navigation nightmare. This is what you get when you don’t design for a mobile experience. Th...

How dare you force ads on me when I pay $100/yr for your app. Subscription cancelled.

The site and app seem to work less now that they were updated. It was much more functional in its old form. I constantly am having photos in chats fail to load whether I’m on the app or website.

Not sure how they did it, but the new app is worse than the old one. Virtually useless. Don’t waste your time downloading

The new major update is a bust and removed the options I liked best about the site—as an alternating paid and free member. They basically dumbed down the offering and user interface, which tells me ...

Guys, I’ve been a member since 2000, and I was a paid member for a lot of that time I’m not sure what’s going on, but the entire site and app and everything has literally become unusable I’m not sur...

Loved this site years ago. Now there is no good search function and they took away the field where you could enter travel plans. Site is usually now for when I travel.

I am so glad I did not renew for another year. Believe everyone that is complaining about the apps ridiculously new update. I still use recon but only through the website. It actually performs a lot b...

ROLLBACK. I’ve been on Recon since 2009. This version is painfully slow, I mean 10 seconds to load messages. Ads in Premium in my messages like Grindr. Pics so large I’m embarrassed to use this in pub...

i used to love this app, but the most recent update not only messed everything up, they made sure to add more dopamine boosting “notifications” and added “message ads” like grindr. woof, why would you...
