Too Expensive for All This Waiting
I really wanted to like Raya, but the swipe limit is honestly ridiculous. You only get to swipe through what feels like 10 or so people before suddenly you’re hit with a wait time, and the wait is SOOOO long. For an app this expensive and supposedly exclusive, we should at least be able to browse through more people before getting locked out.
What makes it even more frustrating is that most of the limited profiles I’m shown aren’t even my type. So I’m basically paying a premium price to swipe through a handful of people I’m not interested in and then wait forever to see more. Either give us more profiles to swipe through, shorten the wait time, or lower the price. The current setup just doesn’t feel worth what we’re paying.

Amazing app, quality people
The people on this app really are interesting and cool! It’s not all celebrities of course, but the quality is visibly very high. It also feels less “algorithm-heavy” than many other platforms.

DONT HAVE LOGICAL
If I'm on a
dating app to meet people, how do I go about meeting people so I can get approved? I'm already the only single person in my circle of friends.

never accepted after years
I’m young, attractive, and professional. I’m a professional model and actress for crying out loud, among having a Master’s degree. I have put in multiple referrals and after YEARS I have still not been accepted. It’s ridiculous.

No one responds on this app
UI is better than other apps especially with the explore mode. Problem is the lack of volume of matches compared to other apps. Have yet to have a single conversation on this one and feel ripped off.

Not worth it
I don’t understand why a $50 dollar subscription would still have limits on how many people you can swipe on. On any given day you can only swipe on a few dozen people. If you are only interested in a few, then those same people can only swipe on the same number, it’s going to take much longer to match.

It’s the worst one there is
After 1.5 years on and off this app I’ve unfortunately come to the conclusion that Raya is a completely desexed unerotic place devoid of community or connection… but it was fun briefly believing I had a chance with both Kesha and Eric Andre.

Latest update not it
Making your recent connections bigger, and only seeing one at a time, is an annoying, unnecessary update.

Save Your Money, Stay Away
Of course this app was designed for celebrity dating… its entire purpose is to make you feel important for being selected but also not fostering any real way of making true deep connections so you are still craving more validation you will never get. I’ve never seen a less relevant premium option than here—there is zero reason to get it because it has zero perks. Not looking to date? Just want to make friends or (god forbid) network?? Even having just for friends in your profile you’ll match with people you will never speak to because they don’t speak. The app is full of people who claim to never get on the app. POURQUOI?!

Every time it updates it just gets worse
It used to be easy to see matches or who was visiting where but with every update it virtually just makes it harder to see who’s actually in the city or visiting the city you’re in and it’s annoying

useless app
Not a useful app, the pool is very small due to them trying to act all exclusive, don’t recommend unless you just want to use more screen time.

Who opened the ugly floodgates?
Used to be exclusive, but I guess Raya had their own bills to pay. Now it’s just the same recycled faces from every other app that made people join Raya in the first place.

No Diversity or Authenticity in this Dating Pool
Ive been on this app for a couple weeks now. The few options that i get provided by Raya usually land somewhere within this range: white shirtless man that’s a professional athlete, a finance bro, or startup founder. As an Asian woman, it would be nice to see some Asian kings out there. They don’t have to be asian, but i want to be able to share my culture with my future partner. This dating pool needs to be diversified…Desperately.
This app showed me a lot of superficial candidates. I don’t care about your fancy cars or your trip to Milan. Show me that you know how to be goofy and real. That you have the emotional maturity and bandwidth to raise a child instead of hiring someone else to do it.
Overall, dating isn’t easy. And i still feel the same after using Raya
