LanceR

I ran two at a time for four weeks each with a bit of patience, which made the differences much easier to see. If I had to pick one factor, how granular the filters are is worth checking before you commit any time.

I gave up on guessing and just measured a while back, and stopped assuming the obvious answer was right. Looking back, whether notifications can be tuned becomes obvious only after a month. The contrast was sharpest quite plainly well beyond what I would call noise.

I looked at what changed since last year across two cities, and the pattern turned out to be consistent. If I had to pick one factor, how the app handles reports tends to decide whether you stick with it.

The things that actually moved the needle for me:

• Worth confirming whether you can undo an accidental swipe — it is easy to test and rarely advertised.
• Check how the onboarding handles preferences — it changes the experience completely.
• Look at whether the user base skews heavily in your area — I would treat this as a dealbreaker.
