User Reviews of Bottled:

It's a very good app as long as you have patience. I've made some friends so far but the only problem I have right now is that,the notifications are no longer popping up and the messages are not coming in at the right time. It delays before it is delivered. I hope they fix that quickly. Also there's a problem with your Facebook page — that also has to be dealt with. Thank you.

I absolutely love the Bottled App! The idea of sending messages in bottles and connecting with people from all over the world is so unique and fun. The interface is very user-friendly, and every bottle I send or receive feels like a little surprise. It's a creative, peaceful, and exciting way to make new friends. Highly recommended for anyone looking for something different from the usual social apps!

A sophisticated platform for connection, yet it could be even better with two essential features. First, a 'Persistent Contact History' is needed so we can reconnect with past chats, even if they were deleted. Second, the ability to 'Share Contact Profiles' directly with other users would greatly simplify networking. Implementing these would make the user experience truly seamless.

Its good, fun little app for you to share your thoughts with strangers from all over. But, the keep and release notification shouldn't be visible to users, I feel. When the user that received your bottle releases it, it essentially means that you've rejected, for whatever reasons. And thats unnecessary. Let it be like a floating bottle for real, of course, without the insanely long waiting time.
