Skout Review November 2023

Joining Skout is free and quick. Once you sign in either with your Facebook, Gmail, or new account, only a few fields are mandatory. Take note that you still need to download the app even if you chose to register via the website. To complete your registration, you need to log in to the app. Skout is inclusive of gender and sexuality and anyone from the LGBTQ+ may join.

Even though your profile is still incomplete, you can start finding other members and chatting with them. Since the emails are not verified with a confirmation code, anyone can create a fake profile easily.

The Skout chat is unlimited for all members and available through the free search option. If someone new sends you a message, it becomes a message request first. If you accept the request, you can start chatting immediately. If you reject it, the message will be deleted and the user will be blocked too to protect your privacy. If you accidentally rejected the message, you can go to the "Blocked Users" section, unblock that person, and start chatting.

You can try out their dating game called "Blind Date." It gives the streaming host the ability to hear the "contestant" but they initially can’t see them. As the video chat progresses, the images become less and less blurred before being fully revealed at the end of the allocated time.

Both participants can then decide whether or not they want to make a match and continue the conversation privately.

Since users can start using the app without completing their basic information, you might find a lot of potential matches with unfinished profiles. Some do not even have profile photos, since it is not required. This incomplete information can extremely limit members' choices. Photos are bound for approval; if they do not meet guidelines, the upload will be denied by Skout.
