Sounds cool, right? Reminds you of MySpace? Yeah, until you have to actually CHOOSE the song. Third, you have to choose a profile song. You can't send links, pictures, or anything else in chat but you can send songs from iTunes, which like.OK? Thanks, I guess? I never sent anyone any music, nor did I ever receive any, and I was fine with that. It glitches out so often, erases messages, and isn't particularly useful. Second of all, the app's layout is wonky as hell. I understand the reasoning for just a few matches a day, but I don't like it. I matched (and had great conversation!) with someone in Montreal, South Africa, and London. Raya will show you people all over the world. First of all, you only get to see a few matches a day, and a lot of them aren't even in the same city as you. If you screenshot, you will get a warning and if you screenshot again, you will get kicked off.ĭid I like using it? At first.yes. Moving on.) The thing that sets this app apart from others is the reputation it has for celebrities using it (kind of true, in my experience) and the fact that screenshots are strictly forbidden. This is already annoying, but I also saw it as a potentially good thing because maybe having to work so hard to get on this damn app meant that people would take it more seriously. You cannot just JOIN Raya, you must know someone already using the app and be invited. Where do we begin? Raya is an exclusive dating app that requires a membership and also costs $7.99 a month. Success.Ĭost? Free, unless you want upgrades, in which case it's $14.99 a month. This isn't researched, that has been my experience, though!ĭid I have success? I went on several enjoyable dates and saw someone on and off for a couple of months. I also feel like, in general, the people on Hinge are a little more serious and less likely to send you dick pics. I think the fact that people can answer questions, but not get too in depth, makes it the ideal dating app for someone who is open to whatever comes their way. And I've had the most successful connections/dates from it, too. It's my favorite dating app that I've used thus far. You can't send pictures, which is honestly probably for the best.ĭid I like using it? YES. You can react to people's answers on the questions OR photos, and anyone can message anyone. On Hinge the profiles are a bit more built out - you have the 5-6 pictures, but then you also have to answer three questions and it gives you the ability to share more about yourself and learn more about others. They say their app is "designed to be deleted" and that's a campaign I can fucking get behind. What's this app's deal? Hinge's thing is calling themselves the dating app for people who don't want to be on dating apps, and honestly I RELATE. I did like that I got to choose the conversation starter, but it also made me feel (at times) that I was already given an unfair advantage because the men *know* I have to be the one to start it and they already feel powerful or whatever, IDK.ĭid I have success? I matched and had a really, really great conversation with someone who lives in New York City, so.Ĭost? Free, unless you want upgrades, then prices vary. Bad because someone *could* and *probably will* send you a picture of their dick.ĭid I encounter less creepy men? LOL, no. Good because it feels just like texting, but without having to give someone your number. You can also send links and messages in app, which is both good and bad. But I think the time limit is good, because in Dating App World 24 hours is more like 72. As someone who tends to ignore notifications from things outside of Instagram, I definitely forgot to do this over 10 times.
Once matched, you only get 24 hours to make a move. The interface is cool, it makes swiping super easy, and you can apply filters such as height, religion, political preferences, and location (in miles) which makes things easier when actually trying to find someone who fits what you're looking for. There is also opportunity to answer questions about yourself, so I liked it for the most part because it was a pretty good indicator of whether or not someone and I would get along.ĭid I like using it? Where do I begin? Overall, did I like using Bumble? Yes. The idea is that women will receive less creepy messages and be more in control of the conversation. In straight matches (like mine), women are required to make the first move. What's this app's deal? Bumble is a dating app created by one of the co-founders of Tinder who happens to be a woman.
