Ran best app alongside two others for the opening stretch — how the volume moved was less reliable than it looks from outside.
With best app specifically, it pays to keep the conversation on the platform until you meet.
For me the difference you notice first with best app is how it behaves after a month of use.
Where best app either works or falls apart is what the gender ratio looks like locally.
For me the bit that surprised me with best app is whether anyone replies without a photo attached.
If you only read one part about best app, read this:
- Check when the account was last active — it is the one habit that moved best app for me
- Do not judge it on the first evening; with best app it costs you a full weekend
- Give best app the first handful of matches before deciding — what the numbers looked like was less reliable than it looks from outside
- What the follow-through looked like after the first month of best app was roughly the same either way
