Leave a Review OkCupid Dating
Confused 😆
Ok so I’m totally new on this. Registered 3 days ago and not a A-list member.
I got some 1500 likes in the first two days (although I don’t see them), and some 50 intro messages (I responded to maybe half), but on the third day (today), I got none likes or intros??? 😆😆😆
Can someone help me to explain the situation? Are these numbers some kinda of trick or something?
I wanted to ask OKC team but didn’t find the contact.
Regardless, overall, I think it’s quite good! I hope I get to meet my Mr. right here ;DShow lessJing202068
Highly disappointing latest changes
As a free user, I didn’t expect magic but still managed to get a few matches when I just signed up, then - absolutely nothing in the last few months, even though I’ve done my share of ‘swiping right’ and commenting on people’s profiles.
Recently introduced changes are shockingly bad. Swipe left/right is no longer there. There’s no way to enlarge pictures so everyone is missing their eyes and tops of their heads (the app makes all your pictures square and simply crops top and bottom).
Left swipe has been replaced with a cross in the oddly inconvenient place that, when touched, results in a black full screen flash that seriously HURTS my eyes. We all say ‘no’ to many people and ‘yes’ to some, so those black (‘no’) screen flashes are eye-damaging. Did you fire your UX designers or what?Show lessDina Angela
Could be better
The app needs a lot of work. Oddly enough the desktop version is a million times better but for some reason they gave the app the least functionality. It should be the other way around. The app should be better than the desktop version but it’s not. As others have mentioned the filters don’t seem to work. Also the pricing is too cut-throat, read receipts for example should be included with A-List instead of being a separate purchase. And $10 to purchase incognito mode is kind of ridiculous, also seems like that should have been bundled with A-List. The developers treated this too much like a game with in-app purchases, A-List creators should go back to the drawing board and try to create an app that does their brand justice. The way it stands the app is nothing more than a wannabe Tinder. Also I am leaning towards using the desktop version exclusively and giving up on the app entirely. Oh and, the last thing I forgot to mention, the incentive they claimed for people to join Alist is that their would be no advertisements yet the app is plastered with their advertising of the New People and the Popular categories which are both separate purchases. I’m not interested in either of those yet no way to bypass those just seems a bit selfish on their part and adds to the reduced functionality because now I have 2 categories that aren’t relevant to me.Show lessAsherBlumenthal
Not bad but unstable
I subscribed for a month. I liked it at first. Then I disconnected for few weeks and subscribed for another month again. I noticed few negatives: 1) I hope you make the app. only paid. Yes. Free subscription collects non-serious creepy people. Plz. if u care about quality and not only quantity, close free memberships. Only paid memberships should be allowed. 2) The quality of matches is much lower than before. 3) used to be able to bring a profile back if I passed it by mistake by shaking my mobile. This feature stopped working. It is IMPORTANT. 4) Chatting is so slow. 5) It would be good to be able to customise search (my ideal person) by job. Some ppl. really looking for matches working in certain fields. 6) The filter is not effective. For example, if I choose my ideal person to be of specific religion, I still get matches out if scope. Plz. make the app respect my scope to save me time and effort. 7) It would be better if I can specify which countries exactly I need to search from rather than distance. Currently, If want from anywhere except few countries which I am not interested in, and I know will cause me spam, how can you help me get out of this?Show lessxfYzs678
Excellent app for dating
I used this app for few months and have some good experiences, but it will be better if the premium price lower down as feel still expensive for us.Jimmy2828717
Outrageously expensive. Free version is useless.
This app takes ages to set up as it prides itself on the most detailed dating profiles out there. The downside to this, however, is that you get about 10-20 likes a day and can’t message anyone you didn’t match with. This is especially awful when you realize that you will get the same 5 profiles repeatedly and each time you swipe right on the same profile you just swiped right, it counts against your already laughable amount of free likes. This is a terrible pay walk structure that means that the only people I will be able tot son to are others that have been successfully extorted for $40+ per month. Yes, it’s cheaper if you pay for multiple months, but for a product that’s designed for your success to mean deleting it, I don’t want to believe it might take me 3-6 months to find success. If this was my app, I’d make the premium featured bonuses, rather than the core experience. When you’re signing up and spending half a day building your profile you don’t even realize you’re about to spend less than one minute swiping and after days of activity still won’t have anyone that it’s possible to message. I don’t much care for the ways that this app has downgraded itself over time.Show lessYolozuna
Best dating app around
I’ve found love 3 times, now it’s mainly lust- lol! It’s great to be able to search for partners and talk freely to prospects but the new messaging system best app out there! I met so many wonderful people. It’s much more humane & real than others hook up sites :)that Best app requires you to like someone before being able to read their message is not good. What if I never see their profile? Then i’ll never know! Apart from that the best app ever:)Show less*<BrutalGrindSlam4life>*
Pretentious and false advertising
I used the app briefly and found it very disappointing. My reasons are:
The free version allows you to make a profile but not to contact anyone with messages.
So why not ask for money in the first place?
Secondly, although I stated only an interest in women, men came up in the selection, too.
Thirdly, I was threatened in a message that my profile could be put down if I put up photos that don’t show people and that people had complained.
To put this claim into perspective: I came across images with words written all over it, images of cartoon characters or photos of cleavages, besides there are also „profiles“ without words, maybe by more frustrated app users(?). I, personally, would find more out about people by seeing their choice of photos and words than by looking at faces.
Worst of all, I couldn’t reply to the message from okcupid to defend my choice of photos.
So, I have decided to get rid of the app two days after I downloaded it. I find it rather useless.
I am still wishing everyone good luck with their love quest.Show lessadfgr232
Found my soulmate! 5 Stars!
I must say, this app beats any other dating app by a longshot. For a couple years I had used tinder and bumble and had few good results with them. If one is looking to just hook-up, sure, use those, but for a long term relationship that you want to develop, defintly download this app! The match % questions and the way the bio is layed out makes finding quality matches much easier than other apps! I am a guy and one day used okcupid after coming back from a business trip (the okcupid refreshes the people near your when changing locations), I matched with a beautiful girl who I have been dating for over a year now! Her bio said she could beat me in super smash brothers so I messaged her, got to hangout in person a week or so after, and wallah! Soulmate 😊. Before this I hadn’t ever had a true girlfriend, and thanks to OkCupid, we found eachother! And have had a blast since the day we met. No other app has the power to change ones life than OkCupid. Quality > Popularity. Anyways, 5/5 stars and good luck to those using the app, and make sure to use pictures and write bios that are clear, show your interests and true to yourself. IThankyou OkCupid makers!Show lessBanjoZman
