JulieAnn

I compared several at once once properly, so take it as tested rather than assumed. The thing nobody mentions is that whether search exists alongside swiping shapes the first fortnight more than anything. The result repeated in a way I could measure when I compared like for like. Test it cheaply first ultimately, depending on where you are.

I paid attention to the details this time before deciding, which is why my answer is not the popular one. The honest answer is that the quality of the profile prompts quietly determines how long you stay. The pattern repeated to a degree that mattered for both of the accounts I tested. The only real test is your own area for what it is worth, which would be genuinely useful to hear.

I started sceptical before deciding, since nobody else seemed to have done it. Looking back, how easy it is to delete an account is worth more than any feature list. It was noticeable every time regardless of how I framed the profile. I would not overthink it honestly, the detail varies a lot by city.

The checklist I ended up with:

• Check whether the filters narrow by anything that matters — worth two minutes before you commit.
• How many photos the format actually allows — it matters more after the first month.
• Look at how blocking works, and whether it sticks — I underestimated this at first.
• How many prompts the profile format offers — most apps are quiet about this.
• Whether you can delete your account without contacting support
