WooPlus Facebook Login Issues

Members of dating app WooPlus who use Facebook logins to access their accounts recently got shut out, creating a huge problem the company wasn’t able to address in a timely manner. As a result, WooPlus is considering ditching Facebook altogether from its login options.

Almost 1.5 million members of the popular dating app for curvy people weren’t able to login to their accounts via Facebook, a typical way for dating app platforms to be able to verify members. The company said that Facebook had failed to notify them in advance that they planned to lock out these users and didn’t offer a reasonable explanation for doing so.

Some WooPlus members said that they were forced to set up new accounts without using Facebook to login to the app, but that they weren’t able to access any of their old account information, messages or matches, causing even more frustration. Others said this wasn’t the first time Facebook booted them out.

Dating app WooPlus, the dating app designed for curvy people, has announced the launch of a new video feature to help its users connect over the app, dubbed “emoji challenge.”

According to the company's press release, the feature allows users to film a short video for their profile, where they are challenged to imitate the emojis presented as they film. Once they have completed the challenge, the video is posted and they get a video verification badge, and as the company advertises, potentially more “likes.”

WooPlus wants to help users spice up their profiles and give their potential matches a taste of their personalities in a fun, new way. The point is not only for users to mimic emojis, but to embrace their individual creativity and be able to express it in an engaging way, rather than just posting static photos. Plus, it allows the user to verify their profile so they can stand out.

WooPlus, an inclusive dating app for curvy people, is testing out its new live feature ‘Love Advisor,’ which aims to help its users find love and curb bad behaviors like ghosting and endless messaging that leads nowhere, according to the company’s press release.

Love Advisor is a live support feature that will help users better communicate when they are using the app, offering real-time guidance so they can avoid some common dating pitfalls. 

According to the press release, Love Advisor will provide:

The Editor's Top Pick - Up & Coming award recipient for 2021 is WooPlus. This dating service for plus sized singles has seen a huge increase in registrations this year. This is thanks in part to their continued innovation in the niche. We are not the only ones to notice either as WooPlus in 2020 was also a top trending dating app on Google Play and a Google Play Editor’s Choice. Thanks to this increased visibility and major media outlets like Vice and People taking notice, WooPlus now has over 5 million users signup since they launched in 2015.

Dating app WooPlus has just launched a major update of its app with a new look, logo and user experience in February, and a month later, it was the number one trending dating app on Google Play as registrations jumped 50 percent.

The self-described “dating app for curvy people” announced version 5.0, which includes new updates to profiles, a dating “assistant” to help guide users, and a new feature to curb ghosting behavior. This was good timing for the company as people went into lockdown worldwide in the wake of the pandemic, and many people isolating alone were turning to dating apps to feel connected.

The new profile update is described in the company’s press release as “unfolding,” because users can spend time with each profile swiping through their photos to get to a description – and therefore get a better sense of who they are. The company said that it allows users to show themselves more vividly and let people get to know them instead of judging quickly and moving on. 

Plus-sized daters are feeling more positive about finding love with dating apps, according to a new study by dating app WooPlus.

The company conducted a survey of its 3 million users to find out what they think of the body positivity movement, which has become extremely popular thanks to outspoken stars like Lizzo, Ashley Graham and Tess Holiday, who have brought attention to the cause. These celebrities have been instrumental in shining a light on the problem of fat-shaming by encouraging people to embrace their curves and recognize their own beauty in all aspects of their lives – including their love lives.
