Users’ opinions:
“I love the app. It used to be buggy when I joined but later they fixed the bugs. I think it’s worthy of this price as I am getting so many options and really go out often. It isn’t just for hook-ups but for qualitative conversations as well, most of the guys are polite and respectful. I think I could really find a boyfriend through it! And this is what the dating apps are for. Thanks Paktor”. (Erika, 26)
“Cool app, honestly I hated it on the beginning and thought to uninstall, but the customer support was so quick and helpful, they really explained things. I met a wonderful woman through Paktor and although we decided to remain friends, it showed a good quality of people there. I am going to continue with it. I believe it’s a good investment into my future private life. Many features are available for free too, but one is getting real chances only when he buys Premium and extra credits. I don’t mind though. I pay for my food and house too. I recommend Paktor to my buddies, I already know it’s legit.” (Khalid, 31)
Expert’s conclusion:
Paktor dating app is severely criticised but since the summer of 2018, reviews become mostly positive and even enthusiastic. Such a big number of good reviews cannot be “paid”, it’s certainly the evidence that developers finally improved the technical side and overall quality of the app.
Moreover, the reviews are endless, it means that Paktor is either very well advertised or very promising, otherwise people wouldn’t join it in such huge quantities. Consider that not every user who downloaded the app, ever bothers to leave the comment, so there are much more downloaders than we even imagine. In any case, we applaud to the owners for such a good organization of the process.
After this considerable update last summer, users’ complaints are rather typical: they are about the cost, occasional glitches and bugs, some scammers, not enough replies, or logging in via Facebook, but not about commercial bots or big errors anymore. It’s hard to find a dating app nowadays that wouldn’t receive the same typical complaints over and over. Particularly, people are never trusting enough towards credits-based apps. We would compare this system to pay-per-letter dating sites. But at least Paktor is legit and very often, helpful too.
We can make a conclusion that Paktor became a true dating leader only in the 2nd half of 2018 when there appeared so many 5-star reviews. The team is really working and improving the quality gradually, so we can confidently recommend this app to all Southern Asian and Western singles who are seeking love online, not depending on their age and location. For sure, Paktor is suitable for international and interracial dating, since it is available in English and contains many profiles of capital inhabitants who are very well-educated in languages. It’s also a positive factor that customer support is very active and always there to help.
Although this app isn’t innovative at all and rather very classical and boring, it’s still trustworthy and effective, plus, it is covering the vast and important geographic area. Our rate is “very good”.
