About Bristlr

Bristlr connects those with beards to those who want to stroke them.

We're beard dating, on a global scale. Described by CNBC as the "Tinder for beards".

Part social network, part dating service, Bristlr has become the world’s favourite beard-centric app.

Started in 2014 Bristlr has now created more than quarter of a million connections between those with beards, and those who want to stroke them. The app has grown into a fully fledged and feature rich dating service used in more than 100 cities around the world.

If this app doesn't (yet) work for your phone, just visit http://bristlr.com in your browser and it's basically the same thing.

Remember, it's Bristlr, not Bristler; gotta skip the e if you're a cool startup.

Great idea in theory but the app is rubbish. You can't filter by gender and the order is the same every time so you end up scrolling through people you've seen already. Maybe the injection of cash from the dragons will help, it definitely needs work as the competition is so much more sophisticated

Considering my beard is pretty awesome, never had one match. I even liked every person on there, just to see if anyone had liked me. Nothing. If I can't get a date on a beard dating site with a beard like mine, then I may as well give in. Probably got more chance of getting a date from these comments than the actual site

I searched for an app like this and thought it would meet my needs. But there's no point in using it trying to meet anyone. I've had messages from one person that turned out to be fake. The matching system is useless, because you both need to match to communicate unless they ticked different. A lot on there haven't been on in over a week.....but that's the maximum time listed - it could be months and still say that.

Last update was back in March. I stopped using this a year ago then came back to all the same old people in my area. App seems like it's pretty dead. Maybe it was the Tinder for beards in 2014, but it sure isn't now.

I think something is wrong. The search engine doesn't work properly for sure. And i notice a huge batch of new profiles appear all with a letter and number after them, all from the same country. I don't think it's as popular as it's made out to be.

Yeah....... All my matches are in Canada or their like 17? Im 36... kinda creepy you guys......Choose 20 miles for matches... 176 miles is the closest match, yet there are many close by??? Wtf?..... Plus if I do get a match, who cares... like the girls are gonna actually say something back .... and no matter how many times I choose the options. I dont want dudes contacting me but it happens.......

Almost all users have not been active for "more than a week" which could practically mean "several months". This place is dead.

I wish it was easier to tell who has a beard and who also wants a beard. I'm pretty sure the app is a big ol beard tease for me.

T70%
by T####:

All fakes A9 after their names or H9 B4 Any cap letter then a number are fake profiles. The real people I assume just never deleted the account.

Not enough users actively using it.. great concept but.... very quiet

No one local and not enough users, people who are have quit using it.

I love a bearded bloke. Still not met anyone off there yet. Ability to pay with PayPal would be good.

S70%
by S####:

This is a great concept... that people with beards can meet other people w or w out beards... however I think the app needs to be revamped to feel more like a community where people can connect! This is like a dating site. You can only message people, for example, if you have a match. That doesn't work for 2 guys just wanting to connect n make friends in their area to talk about their beards or bikes. Also it seems like people have profiles but nobody's on.

It's a shame as I've met a few people here now but the sooner we get talking off the app the better, it's possibly the worst app I've ever used on Android! Codings rubbish, screen jumps when your scrolling and right now it's not even working properly! Can't click 'like' and the web version is no better

S70%
by S####:

I love this app, its slower than other apps to get going but thats because they've removed the potential for nonesense which in my opinion is perfect, a few improvements i would like to see, separate men and women, and it should force you to fill out your basic profile at least, picture scrolling would also be useful, and as with all apps, speed and reduced lagging

Ok, the site being broken was all fun & games until this morning, when a super cute guy sent me a message. I can't respond! NOT COOL. Android... Note 3.

New update is super glitchy. Really slow and lots of loading errors. Also blatant text coding issues resulting in fragmented and displaced text. Please fix :)

Way too buggy. And barely active users

Boring unless you upgrade to paid version

Doesn't load CSS, I get plain, ugly HTML

by O####:

There's potential in this app but desperately needs more users. Also, you need to like each other to message each other (like similar apps). Yet, I can message some users without 'liking' them. Don't get it?

S70%
by S####:

Most dating site can give you a lot of insecurities rather if you look great with a beard or not. This is a great site that you can show who's beard is better. I believe this place may need more people but otherwise, this is a great idea!

Z70%
by Z####:

I really like that it seems to have not much b.s. accounts going on. And there seem to be some genuine people on it. Bit the fact that this is a webapp; really seems to mess with its stability. Where it lacks lot's of times; -Uploading photos -viewing photos -showing you have a match -showing you have email -opening the app after being in the background -saving the text after putting the app in the background -and so on. Feel free to contact me though; I am very open to help out by telling the specifics ;)

White screens and freezes when connecting FaceBook. Brand new phone, fully updated.

Like the patterns are obvious. Just a first name followed by a letter. This is why real people never stay on it.

C70%
by C####:

Will someone explains this app to me...all the same people no one to say hi to. Why do half the photos look like they were made with a combo porn filter meets a proof of life filter.a great idea that failed- like silent velcro. Keep the beard delete the app.

Keep it gender free!

S70%

Hmmm

S70%
by S####:

Slowest dating app I've ever been on. I've matched with one person, and I can definitely tell you it's not due to lack-there-of a beard. Just not ready to be widely used I suppose.

Thought this was for straight men and women. Might want to specify that it's a gay sight
