Tourbar is a niche meeting app which is especially designed for travelers to meet abroad as travel buddies or a travel partner. Travelers going abroad may also locate a native to act as their tour guide around the city.

 

Tourbar Verdict

Tourbar is a great app for people around the world to connect and meet. Everything sounds good on paper but what’s the catch?

 

Aspects	Comments
Pros	· App is available on both iOS and also Android. Sign up procedure is extremely easy with multiple options to choose from.   · Tourbar has users from all over the world, so it is suitable for frequent travellers to meet new people and form new bonds.   · Profiles on the app has to be verified via either ID verification, phone verification or photo verification.   · Complaints in regards to the app will be replied speedily within 24 hours. Customer service support is available in two languages, English and Russian.
Cons	· Limited amount of conversations with other users per day and users can only start a conversation with each other when both parties have mutually favourited each others profile besides premium users.   · There is a few number of fake accounts circulating on the website. Besides that, some users on the website are not looking to travel.   · Sketchy handling methods in regards to personal information and privacy, in which users have commented that their profiles have been meddled with.   · Premium membership is expensive.   · Customer service page on the website is only accessible to registered users.

In conclusion, Tourbar is an app that looks good on paper but is shown to be sketchy in regards to the user interface.

 

Though the original purpose was for travellers, the app has been misused as a method of scamming other people or for users to simply market themselves.

 

Personally I would not recommend this app as there are better options in the market.

Pros

 

Users have commented on the fact that customer support service is quick to reply when it comes to user complaints and resolves problems that they may have within a short amount of time.

 

Cons

 

Some users have complaint that the app will meddle with your personal information, such as changing your profile information without any permission given. There have also been reports of fake accounts on the app, which luckily will be removed when reported to customer service.

 

Besides that, TourBar has been said to have minimal to no function if you do not pay for premium. For example, users have been unable to initiate a conversation without paying for premium. On top of that the fees for premium membership is said to be expensive, given that the users on the site are mostly from third world countries.

 

After searching through the app’s user list, there is a vast majority of male users that are from Middle East and female users from Ukraine or Russia.

How to Sign Out

 

Users can simply log off from their account by going to the Settings option, scrolling to the bottom of the page and selecting Logout.
