I kept notes the whole way through with a bit of patience, and it held up across all of them. Whichever option you pick, the amount of information visible before matching is the part the marketing never mentions. The difference was visible in a way I could measure whether the app was well known or not.
I kept notes the whole way through before deciding, and it held up across all of them. What I found is that how much of your social graph it wants is worth checking before you commit any time.
I tracked this rather than trusting impressions across two cities, and it held up across all of them. What kept coming up was how support responds to a real problem, which can be tested inside a week. The finding held consistently enough to trust regardless of how active I was. I would check it before committing frankly, which would be genuinely useful to hear.
Things I wish I had checked sooner:
- Whether you can hide a profile without deleting it — the answer varies more than you would think.
- Look at how easily you can change your location — genuinely worth knowing up front.
- Whether the free tier caps daily messages — it is easy to test and rarely advertised.
