Comments on Only Lads - Gay Dating for Android

★★★★★ Somto Godwin · Aug 25, 2024

I like the boundaries that make the app really cool

★★★★☆ Gino Kaze · Jul 23, 2024

It's pretty solid, I feel like it could use some polishing especially with the location and area, but otherwise it's great

★★★★☆ Jim Johnson · Oct 27, 2024

I like Only Lads because it's not Grindr. The app is uncomplicated and straightforward and often presents new guys rather than the usual suspects

★☆☆☆☆ Jackson J-W · Feb 11, 2025

It's ridiculous that you expect me to pay for verification. Idc that it's a dollar, it's unnecessary. There are other ways to have me verify, and it's apparently not that effective because I've seen a lot of catfishes on this app. I'm not giving you a dollar (literally).

★☆☆☆☆ Hasintha Priyankara · Nov 19, 2025

I started to use this app. They charge every step and for everything. This is not a good one. Wasting a lot of money. But set up is good. You can meet a good guy without this expensive and limited using our needs. It is not fair. Never recommend this app

★☆☆☆☆ Davie Broon · Jun 7, 2025

Full of years old profiles .one even said ... I'm 34 in writing.his age in app was 42.dead site.im out
