Timber 2.1.0.5
Tinder is one of those dating services that anyone can use when trying to find the perfect match and Windows Phone users can now try a dedicated client called Timber that facilitates the access to the online features while on the go.
Pretty looks, with a simple and efficient layout
The application offers a nice interface that features some really neatly designed graphics that are consistent all through the GUI. The content is provided in a well structured fashion, while the main commands and functions are all in plain sight, ready to be used.
Going through the list of possible matches is very simple, but there are some glitches, so you could have a discarded entry return into view just moments after it was sent away.
A bit more annoying can be the advertisements that appear inside Timber, even if they are far more discreet than the usual flashing banners displayed by numerous apps.
Fast configuration for immediate results
Using the main menu that is can be accessed by tapping the corresponding button from the upper side of the screen you will be able to setup the utility so as to help you find nice people near you.
The location setting can be set to use the GPS localization for more accuracy, while configuring the more advanced parameters will only take a few moments.
Thus, you only have to specify your gender and choose what type of people you are looking for, then set the search radius and the distance measurement unit. The final step is to define the minimum and maximum age of the persons you want to get in touch with.
Automatic search and content management at a glance
Timber carries out the searches automatically, using the settings you provided, so you can receive relevant results in just a few moments. While browsing the list you can easily choose the people you like and dislike either by swiping to the right or left or by tapping the corresponding buttons.
You can view the full photo set of each user by pressing the "info" button or with a double tap on the photo shown in the results list. Should you care to undo a like or dislike you will have to unlock the dedicated feature by leaving a review.
Reviewing the messages exchanged with people you got in touch with is easy to carry out from the main menu and just as simple is the creation of some set phrases you can use in the conversations.

Bottom Line
Design / UI9
The appearance of this utility is clean and stylish, the only drawback being the presence of the advertisements. |
Function7
The application offers a simple way of finding interesting people, but there is too little control over the search results and some extra features would be welcomed. |
Security10
Timber is safe to have installed and use because it leaves untouched the areas of the system unrelated to its functionality. |
Battery3
The power consumption reaches very high levels, so the battery will discharge pretty fast if the app is kept running for longer periods of time. |
Price9
Almost all the features are offered freely and only the "Undo" will need a review from the user to become unlocked. |
Compatibility9
Most users will be able to enjoy this app onto their handsets as it runs on any device that is powered by Windows Phone 8 or higher. |
