It is the most used dating app ever created. Tinder may be more popular in the United States, but Badoo is much more popular in other countries like Brazil, Spain, Mexico, France, and Italy.
But considering its extremely large user base, there are bound to be some bad apples to be found on Badoo. Aggressive behavior is all too common on dating apps, especially from men looking for girlfriends who won’t take no for an answer. Fortunately, you can block and report those people, read on to find out how.
How Badoo works
Like any other dating app, Badoo works on the principle of swiping left or right depending on whether you find someone attractive. But how do you set it all up?
First, you need to download the app from the Google Play Store on Android or the Apple Store on iPhone. The app has a freemium model, which means that it is free to download and use. However, there are some in-app purchases.
You will need to register with your email address and password. You will also be prompted to upload an image so that other users can view it and decide if they want to add it. After registering, you will need to confirm that you are really the one in the photo by taking a new photo on location. Badoo will review it and allow you to use the app if they confirm it’s you.
Starting
When you log in and start the app, you will be automatically sent to the matchmaking window, where you will be matched with people of the gender you are interested in. The app asks for your location so they can match you with people who are nearby.
You need to press X if you don’t like the person, or swipe left. If you like them, swipe right or tap the heart icon. If you want to speed up the process, tap the icon in the middle, which sends them a crush. Please note that this feature comes at a cost. If this person decides that they like you, you will be notified and you can start chatting.
But things can get intense in chat. Someone who seems nice at first can quickly become very unpleasant. If the person keeps asking you inappropriate questions, sending you photos or sending you unwanted messages, you can easily block them.
How to Block Someone on Badoo
In case someone is harassing you, don’t hesitate to block them and report them immediately. This is how you can do that on Badoo:
What happens when you block someone
The person you have blocked will not receive a notification telling them that you have blocked them. In addition, they will still be able to see your profile and will even see if you visit theirs. Blocking them only prevents them from sending you messages again. If you are absolutely desperate to avoid someone in every way, it would be best to create a new account.
How to manage blocked users
Fortunately, Badoo makes it super easy to get rid of any creeps, stalkers, or extremely annoying people you might encounter. Don’t let anyone ruin your day by saying something mean or disrespectful to you. They may want your time and attention, but they don’t deserve it.
