I get what they're trying to do, but I how do they get around the sausage-party effect of tinder? It would seem unlikely that women would be comfortable dealing with that sort and volume of attention in person? Maybe if they took the bumble approach where one side is anonymous or semi-anonymous?

This might work even if women don't check in, as long as they are on the app. Besides, single guys mobbing an easily accessible bar where there are a lot of single women and scaring them all away within a couple weeks happens all the time already, sans app. This is what bouncers / face-control / cover are for.

Exactly this. If this becomes popular bar owners will need to have signs saying they dont mind women checking in at their bar - but that men should avoid it if they want any women to show up at all.
