Deteriorating app
EDIT: I want to lower my rating even further, due to the canned developer responses that have nothing to do with the content of my feedback, but I cant because I cant go lower than 1 star

This used to be my go-to dating app, but theyve been slowly losing their way and forgetting what made them great while they try to compete with the swipe-style dating apps that have become popular. Features have been added which simply dont mesh at all with Okcupids core and sometimes are completely at odds with itself, and many other features have been removed which were core reasons I used the app.
The most unforgivable example which prompted this review is the removal of the visitors section - while bad enough, they run salt in the wound by still notifying you when you have one, but are greeted with a message saying you cant see them anymore when you try to interact with the notification. INCREDIBLY frustrating - especially when the thumbnail in the notifications really catches your eye and there is absolutely no way to find them.
This is absolute bs, OkCupid. Dont try to be other dating apps. They are good at what they do, but you offered something completely different. Youve forgotten who you are
