MeetMe Verdict
MeetMe is a unique social network dating service. Trying their best to catch up with this new normal online dating world. It is a very unique service.
MeetMe is definitely for people who have a lot of spare time at home with good internet connections, reasonably priced electricity packages, and comfy gaming chairs.
You might see a lot of gaming chairs in the background.
On the other hand, there are normal people who are broadcasting themselves, without doing anything and/or doing absolutely individual things.
This is a puzzling part of this service. But they might hope for an unexpected buzz. Current society we are living in, it is very unknown what comes next.
But people are able to go live by just tapping the screen, some would accidentally share some very private moments.
Although they are consistently warning about this matter, if people are not tech savvy, they will need to be very cautious.
Because of those reasons, this app is not for young people, absolutely not for age 13 as they advertise. This is an app for adults, and adults only.
User Variety
MeetMe has a great mixture of people from different racial backgrounds. However, there are not many older people.
Again, populated areas would offer better variety. MeetMe is a geolocation dating service.
