Waste of Time and Doesn’t Work
A friend recommended this app to me because she got a match. I was excited because I might actually find someone here.
But it went downhill from there. There is genuine thought behind this app but if you decide to use it for free and not get VIP, it will not work for you.
I’ve been using this app for free for the past month and have swiped right on countless people but haven’t heard back from anyone! I thought that I would have to wait but now I know that it just doesn’t like free users. It also frustrates me that I got matched with someone who’s profile I have never seen and swiped. And adding on to that, I had unmatched that user that I got randomly matched with but I keep getting matched with them the day after. This has happened more than 5 times. At first I thought it was a bug, but even after updating, it keeps happening.
So in all honesty, this app is a complete waste of time if you don’t pay for it.Show lessIronMan037
It went downhill...
I never write reviews, but this app needed serious feedback. 1) So MANY glitches....you keep seeing the same profiles over and over and over again. You see your Notes one day and then you don’t see them for the next couple months. 2) For many people the most important filter is community...but now we have to pay for it...seriously...basically all we can control is age, height, and religion, and religion is essentially useless without community. 3) The distance algorithm is terrible...so many people are so annoyed when they find out your aren’t even close to them...fix it!! What I realized after using this is they want/need money...and no offense many people aren’t going to pay those prices for VIP/elite membership. You guys should have left it how it was a year ago (all free filters)...it worked fine. But now you completely ruined it!!!Show lessmpatel201905
A failed attempt
It’s a good idea but needs lot of tweaks. The developers are focusing on the wrong things in my opinion. First of all, the resolution of the images and the image requirements are completely stupid. They are too focused on not letting you upload pictures with sunglasses but not able to recognize the 100’s of fake accounts of horny teenagers. I matched with 5 accounts and they all were from 16-18 years of age even though their profile said 22-26
I had like 30+ matches that were hidden. I never got a chance to swipe on them and this is just a trick to make you pay more money. IMO just bring in some ads and help the small communities to meet each other without paying. Even with my 30+ matches my female friends who started some new account told me that my profile only showed up to them after months of swiping. I feel like they my profile was ranked low because I swiped left a lot. Anyway I got out. Hope the developers make the necessary changes and optimize this app.Show lessverum_pro

Hi verum_pro! Thank you for the 5 stars. We appreciate all your love and support. Happy Dil Miling!Does DIl Mil even read these reviews?
Does DIl Mil even read these reviews? Either they do and just don’t care or they don’t and do not care enough what their users thinks. They are obviously pushing out updates for the app, but I doesn’t seem the be answering any of the questions or issues users have with this app. It’s very unfortunate that the person doing the decision making for this app is attempting to look for the most financial gain in the wrong areas. This could have had have possibility to be a scalable app, but the way the business model is set up/ux, it’s destined to fail. Why not generate income based on add revenue inseam of trying to nickel and dime your users every possible way you can? There are some very shady business practices going on here that leads the user to perceive that this app has more user activity than it actually is, and what is the justification for giving free users only 10 swipes a day?? That’s the stupidest business model I’ve seen on a dating app. Whoever came up with that should be fired.Show lesskurryf
Fueled by Money -Terrible App
UPDATE: Now you have to pay to set filters. Absolutely ridiculous. It’s obvious that DM’s whole purpose is to now make money. Clearly, they don’t care about how the users feel because no positive changes have been made based on user reviews. The generic response to reviews is also evidence. This app exists to make money and has no other purpose.
Y’all I feel like the more upgrades the app makes the more it goes downhill.
First off, it is now giving me Tinder vibes with the whole swipe left/right business. Then swipe up/down to see this or that.
OH and not allowing pictures cause the resolution is low. Are you serious?! You’re asking people to use more filtered/edited pictures.
Also. I ‘x’ somebody, why do they keep showing up. But in turn, when I like someone my number of likes stay the same... Did it not go through... They never reappear, like the ones I ‘x’-ed... What’s the story there?
And upgrade to VIP to see the reveal the people that liked you? The rocket ship for some kind of boost? Why must we complicate this. The free version is no bueno so why upgrade?
Please just take it back to the simple version -bring back the glimpse tab!
The only reason I’m still here is because there customer service is super responsive.Show lessposhqwerty
App issues but decent
So this app is way better than some of the other dating apps. I have to say that I’ve had a couple of decent matches but I am experiencing some app issues. I keep getting emails and use to get notifications saying so and so matched with me. I go to the app and that so and so isn’t even a match. I did their troubleshooting suggestions and still nothing. It is pretty frustrating because at no point do I want someone to think I wasn’t interested especially if I also swiped right. After several messages back and forth with contact support they have “escalated” my issue. It’s not fair that some people pay $50 and they have these issues.Show lessbenny2003
DilMil Team
So I recently joined DilMil, still fairly new to this app. But just like any other app, it depends on two people to communicate. Hope for the best that your dream man or woman is out there, waiting to match your Dil ;)
I had some difficulty with my photos as they were pending approval, which meant my potential suitors would not be able to see. So I sent the help centre a message and they acknowledged it within 48 hours. Photo was approved and I’m happily matching. Uploaded three more recently so waiting for them to be approved as well now.
Happy matching!!Show lessSassy_13
Not thrilled
This app is solid in theory and clearly someone put the thought into the unique needs of dating in the South Asian community. I wanted to try since a close friend met his now fiancé on the app.
This is where the trouble starts. Let me start by saying the picture upload process is a joke. Why the hell would pictures be in that resolution, size and shape. This make no sense and makes finding suitable pictures a nightmare, if at all possible.
Then there is the geographic drill down. The options are 500 miles, my country (the US) or Any. There is a checked box to show “more” results in my home city. Once you start swiping you quickly realize, every single match is at least a couple 100 miles away. I live in NYC. I can’t imagine there is a shortage of Indians. Which only leads me to assume there is a deep shortage in user base. Totally useless.
Finally, the entire app is fully designed to get you to pay for their multiple tiers of paid service. The cost is particular high when compared to the other apps out there and other reviews on here seem to imply that is a bit of a scam too.
Ona free level the app never seems to show results. I’m not sure if it is the forced unflattering pictures I’ve had to upload, the fact that seemingly the only people using it are in Guam and on the moon if I have to pay to play. Either way, a pretty poor experience.
I guess we’ll have to wait a bit longer for a quality South Asian dating app.Show lessHari718

I’ve used Dil Mil off and on for a few years. There’s legitimate thought behind the way it works and it’s user experience, but it’s also really buggy.
This is particularly frustrating because I personally do know friends and acquaintances who have met meaningful people on here. So it can work, and the optimist in me wants to believe in it.
My recent experience has been that I get notifications via email that I am getting “Notes” from users, but when I go to the Matches/Notes tab in the app, I see nothing. In the space where I presumably should see these notes/messages, I see a promotional space for VIP and VIP Elite. THIS despite the fact that I am subscribed as VIP Elite already. So, that makes no sense and also doesn’t seem to work as intended. And, I can’t see my supposed Notes either.
I did use the app’s help/support feature in hopes of resolving the issue, and received in timely fashion (3-4 days, as promised) the suggestion to delete the app, restart my device, reinstall the most recent version, and hopefully that will fix it. But it hasn’t. I’ve tried it a number of times, and the issue clearly isn’t that I have an old buggier version of the same app. Further inquiries to help/support have led to responsive messages back, but no further meaningful suggestions. I’m at a loss as to what to do. I’d love to have more faith in the product, but I feel like I’m locked out of a better and meaningful experience.Show lessShourjoDasgupta

If you are worried about fake accounts, facebook verification is the dumbest way to ensure users are real. Facebook has millions of fake users, they sell data, and they are negligent in their security protocols. Does dil mil sell user data to facebook and receive back door benefits?! I have a feeling that facebook analytics has access to our matches and messages on dil mil. If not than why not create a simple phone or email verification instead of making facebook the only way to create account. It is poor business practice, and you are unknowingly promoting their spyware. Is dil mil not worried about the 150 million users affected by the data breach which would include information such as this app. It’s sad people have to download spyware to meet people. Terrible actually...Make it accessible for people who don’t use facebook please. Bring back the phone and text verification.Show lessBrookybrooks
