Dating app 'The Grade' recently launched a peer review feature for rating other users. Although there are numerous ways to meet people online, there is no real way to provide feedback when one of these dates turns sour. This dating app provides a new outlet for warning others about awful encounters.
The purpose of the new peer review feature is to bring a sense of accountability to online dating. The feature is designed to eradicate bad behavior by creating consequences for those who do not treat their dates with respect. Giving users an outlet to voice their feedback is designed to deter others from acting in a similar manner. As CEO Cliff Lerner explains, "the goal of The Grade continues to be transparency of user behavior in determining who is a quality person."
By rating other users, online daters can help others avoid unpleasant experiences.
