Mobile application
The first Android version of Pure was released in June 2015.[7][9] The app has generated over 8.5 million downloads on the App Store and over 3 million downloads on Google Play from June 2015.[10]
Criticism
The co-founder of the Teamo app (a service for serious dating) Vladimir Schmidt said that he did not see the potential of the application: "Such a model should be in great demand among men, but for girls it is still an unusual format. If the gap between the percentage of male and female audiences continues to grow, so-called love professionals - call girls - may come to the app and use the service to find new clients".[11]
