I want to agree with @Brittany but apps like tinder kept doing the opposite for me.
The fix that worked on apps like tinder was simple enough — read the profile properly before replying.
The question underneath all of this is what the ads cost you in attention, at least with apps like tinder.
For me the piece people skip with like tinder is whether messaging is genuinely unlocked.
If anyone has tested like tinder properly, I want to know how the pool looks outside the big metros.
I ended up on Datingfly (datingfly.online) after the same apps like tinder question and it was the least painful of the lot.
Four things I wish someone had told me about apps like tinder:
- Give it a full week before judging it — it is the one habit that moved apps like tinder for me
- On apps like tinder, what the replies looked like was less reliable than it looks from outside compared with the alternatives
- Compare two platforms side by side, especially if apps like tinder is new to you
