User Reviews

Users generally love Langmate for meeting new Japanese friends, and report real connections. However, recurring issues include no dark mode, monetization gating core features (premium to see/accept requests and use voice messages), account or device compatibility problems, and ineffective matching with potential bots. These concerns suggest pricing, reliability, and accessibility challenges despite overall positive sentiment.

  • Met a really nice person through Langmate.
  • I love Langmate application a lot.
  • The app is praised as the best, amazing, and awesome.
  • Overall positive sentiment with good, nice, and cool vibes.
Cons
  • Lack of dark mode and missing dark theme.
  • Pricing and monetization gating essential features (premium to see/accept requests and to use voice messages).
  • Account access problems: accounts disappearing or being blocked.
  • Device compatibility issues: app becomes incompatible on some devices.
  • Poor matching: algorithm yields few matches and reports of bots/spam.

it's a good app but why must I pay just see people who send me a requests?

You need premium just to accept friend requests. Which means other people need premium to accept your friend request. Absolute hot garbage app lol You basically can't talk to anyone without paying money. And guess what? I'm not paying money to talk to someone, so into the bin this app goes 🤣
