TAIMI LGBTQ Dating AppReviews of taimi.com

Three stars, and I want to be clear that this is not a low score without reason. This app could very easily be a 5 star app. What holds it back is not the concept or the community. It is a handful of choices Taimi keeps making on my behalf. THE GOOD, BECAUSE THERE IS A LOT OF IT I have met some lovely people on Taimi. It is honestly one of my more successful options, even if it takes patience to get there. I use it pretty often, with my own safeguards around how I use it. But in simple terms of actually meeting people, it does work. Just not always the way it should. The filters, when they stick, are mostly workable. Fairly standard across the board with a few extras I appreciate. NOW THE PART I NEED THEM TO HEAR This is after almost a year of use, so none of it is a first impression. - There is no way to filter out polyamorous and ENM users who are looking for that specifically. I do not have the poly section filled out on my own profile because it is not what I am looking for. No hate at all to people who are, it is simply not my thing. You would think leaving that toggle off would mean I stop being shown people seeking it. It does not. Often I do not catch it until after a match, when I revisit the profile and realize I missed it. - The app overrides my age and location filters. Instantly. To be fair, it tells you it is doing this. But I am a 39 year old queer man and I am not trying to be shown 18 year olds 50 miles away. If the pool runs dry, just say that. Tinder does. Hinge does. Some of them go with a polite "adjust your filters to see more people," which is infinitely better than just deciding my filters are more for entertainment than actual filters. It reads as engagement for the sake of engagement, regardless of whether that engagement is legitimate. - The main result of this is app fatigue faster here than on other apps. I set my filters, the app overrides them minutes later, I set them again, rinse and repeat until I’m just over it. - The AI Assistant also appears to be enabled by default. It sends likes and messages on your behalf, and it is frequently wrong about who and what I would actually go for. I did not agree to a bot doing this. Now, to be fair I have since disabled this and haven’t seen any indication that it is still doing this. - Then there are the false message notifications. I contacted support about this and was told it is meant to happen. The notification is not there to tell you that you have a message. It is there to get you back on the app. Nothing quite like seeing that someone you liked messaged you, opening it up, and sitting there waiting for a message that does not exist. That is not the other user's fault. That is Taimi's. - Which brings me to ghosting. Every app has that. I put more of it on Taimi than on the users, because I know the app does things users did not directly consent to. BOTTOM LINE Taimi could easily be one of the best apps out there if not THE best. I cannot hand them that, because several of these choices read as dishonest and misleading. So I take interactions with a grain of salt and keep notifications off, because they have not earned being trusted. UPDATE after Taimi's response: I greatly appreciate the reply and the transparency about how the filters work. However, with that in mind, I have a few clarifications to my original review. My filters are ages 24 to 45 within 35 miles. That is not narrow. If the pool empties after one profile, that is a user density issue, which Taimi also names in their answer about the poly filter. Waiting a few hours does not resolve it. I wait, get roughly one or two people, and the filters override again. That loop is the fatigue I described, and waiting in some area may work but it doesn’t work in mine. I usually have to wait weeks or more to have a good stack to match on. The response from Taimi addresses distance but not age. Age is the part I would say I care about most. I am not looking to be shown 18 year olds as a 39 year old queer man. On the AI Assistant, if enough users are accidentally consenting through prompts like Curated batch that it is the standard explanation, the consent flow is the issue, not the users. Still three stars. Still hoping for five one day.

There are many things that should be improved in the search engine regarding a more refined approach to personal preference and location.

Des profils qui semblent réèls, loin du défilé des "copycats" et autres captures écran vues sur certains sites. Taimi pousse à la consommation pour bénéficier d'un service qui ressemble à quelque chose. De quoi faire sérieusement réfléchir sur son éfficacité réèlle, à proximité notamment. Il y a mieux ailleurs...

Pour l'instant j'arrive à dialoguer avec des gens, même en mode gratuit, et que l'assistance dépannage est au top! Mais je pense que c'est une IA et qu'elle a menti en m'affirmant être une vraie personne. Et ça n'empêche ça fait flipper lol

Taimi is a great site even though I have been flagged for simple things like saying I’m on the way to go buy me some food, if a person asks a question.. about what I’m doing…. at the moment!! my account has been flagged!!! several times for answering questions, based on what I was doing, at the moment. I think that’s very shallow because if I can’t give a real time update, to real individuals., about what I’m doing, then I seem like a fake person, but anything mentioning money, etc etc anything, buying a product, sending, receiving, monetization,, intentional or not smh, it will get you completely kicked off of Taimi,.. and that’s wrong, because for the simple fact that I’m a great person, none violent, none confrontational, very spiritual, and love people, and I feel like I’m the only one getting picked on honestly.. and yes, I’m an African American,.. Transgender!! That also,…works in corporate America.

I’ve been on and off Taimi for a year or so. Their customer service response is great. Really. The reason for the three stars? Their business model. They prey on one’s desire for a relationship by waving a carrot in front of you to buy more features. That’s normal, right? Yep. But, they are deceitful about it. With the base membership $14.99/mo the people who visit your profile are blurred. No problem. But, then they say “see who’s cruising on you!” when all someone did was look at your profile. Crushing may be the farthest thing from their mind if they don’t like you for whatever reason. And, you can’t turn off that notification. So, you’re constantly prompted to read that misleading statement thinking it may actually be a message from another usher who likes you. Taimi is a great app. They don’t need to intentionally mislead people to make more money.

My sister joined Taimi app looking for girlfriend. She is lesbian. I am posting her adventure with app. It’s a very good software program. Easy to use and work. The problem she had dated 8-23-24 n 5 days was a bait n switch. You need join one of 3 plans to contact or like anyone. Taimi lists what each color plan does. She joined silver middle plan. Problem came in that the features offered was BS. When you tried perform task all it was send u to hold plan to upgrade at the higher costs. So pricing vs performance is scam. She Contacted support and was told yes they were testing a new upgrade n there was nothing she could do but but hold monthly most expensive plan. She cancelled n apple to their credit refunded her money. So take g to his info to heart hold them accountable if use app before signing on. An to who the hell ever flingpals is I am real not ai dummies. If u see them ignore their bot driven site.
