Kinda Awful
I decided to bite the bullet and try a couple dating apps. This one stood out as not only the worst out of the few I tried but also the slowest and clunkiest app I have used in years. You will be tempted to check that your internet is still working. Nope, it’s just that slow. The app also kept showing me the same people labeled as “new” when I had already seen them, and when those people hadn’t been active in months. Clearly they aren’t new to me, or new to CM. Why even show me someone who is never going to respond? If you are looking for a Christian dating app, use something else. The other alternatives aren’t perfect either but they are at least worth dealing with. You can also filter on non religious dating apps for Christians only.Show lessillfaxyoulater
Preferences don’t match
It’s great to have an app to connect withChristian singles.
The feedback I have is to have both users preferences be compatible. For example, I do not want children; stop matching me with people that do. I also want to meet someone within 100 miles of me which is a 2 Hour drive (such I think is plenty long); Stop matching me with people across the country that I don’t plan to meet. SupposeI could zoom them? I prefer a live person to connect than videos.
I get hopeful when I get a match because I think it’s going to match my preferences; Not that I have a “match” that I’m not interested from the get go based on answers and I have to ignore them or feel bad for not replying when I know it’s an effort to message someone anyway.

Not Satisfactory For The Price
I had tried the premium membership to have the ability to communicate with those who didn’t want to pay the ridiculous price for a premium membership. I’ve always found that the app is really slow to start up and load. Navigating through the different tabs also takes a bit of time. Some of the settings I had were ignored within search results. On an overwhelming amount of profiles the account hadn’t been active for a considerable amount of time. Quite a few that haven’t been active in months. The price for the memberships is quite steep for the quality and content of the app. It makes me sad as I feel a lot of people think “If only I had premium then I could find someone.” I didn’t have that exact mindset but it wasn’t worth even half as much as the top premium membership for a single month. Roughly $50 for a single month on a slow, mostly vacant app. Definitely hoping some serious changes are put into the app and I really won’t purchase anything further until the content is worth it. Prices that are reasonable for what is being offered for starters.Show lessAssassinCreederJ
Good but clunky and overprotective
I’m happy that an app like this exists but there are definitely problems with it that prevents it from being good, mainly the layout of the app and how it runs can only be described as clunky, like driving a car with a bad steering column. It takes forever to learn were things are in the app, some things are accessed by buttons in places you wouldn’t expect.
and everything seems to take a long time to load, while anything else on my phone takes almost no time at all
And this would all be forgiven if the price for the services where reasonably priced, but the free parts can barely go anywhere and FIFTY DOLLARS FOR ONE MONTH?!?! I have tried the premium version and it was not worth it for me!
Also last thing, I live near the US/ Canada border and the fact there is no way to have matches not in the same country as you show up is a real annoying thing. It’s not a serious issue but a small annoyance, but also most dating sites I’ve been on don’t have this function either but stillShow lessCakester Frank
Highly unsecure service. Avoid.
I had a long dormant account randomly activated in the past few days. Not by me. I requested a password reset. I then changed the password. Someone had hacked into the account. They changed my info, added their own photos and a location in NY. I'm assuming to scam other members. As I changed info back to me, in minutes it changed back to that of the hacker. The hacker was still in my account. Why didn't Christian Mingle log everyone out of the account when I changed the password? Changing the password again did nothing. I have no issues with any other service but they offer two factor authentication. Christian Mingle does not. Support responses were boiler plate canned replies. Then they suspended me due to suspicion of fraud. I replied back re-explaining the situation. Somehow after suspension the account was again reactivated. I received more email notifications regarding name, location, age, bio changes. Support suggested I make a new email address, ignoring the fact a hacker was still in my account. I had to plead with them to delete my account. I hope it's actually done now. I didn't spend any money thankfully. This service is highly unsecure and "Christian" in name only, not operation.Show lessryanflucas
Worst dating app out there
How CM is still even online and not bankrupt is truly a miracle. This site and app is down at least twice a week. It’s now been down completely for over a week. When it it up, it’s SO slow. Also, very very very very very very few people have paid subscriptions. You can see who is a plus member, but there’s so few out there what’s the point? You can’t talk to anyone else, or even see their full profile. And they want $50/month? HA!
They truly need to FIRE every single developer who works for CM (if there even is any), and completely rebuild CM from the ground up. Maybe even get a new name and rebrand itself. CM is awful. I imagine they give a lot of refunds, or at least they should.
Also, may sound like a lame point, but Christians are to work as unto the Lord. We’re to be genuine, honest, hard workers. If everyone who worked at CM put their best and worked unto Christ to deliver the best product, they’d have a working app. This app needs to be rebuilt, rebranded, or taken down.Show lessPetros777
Service is HORRIBLE!!! Go to another site!
I was excited to join. I took time filling out a detailed profile. I put nice pics on my profile. I paid $50 for a 1 month recurring membership.
I got good responses immediately from those who seemed legitimate. Then I logged out. I could not sign back in. It said “ account not authenticated” .
I tried a dozen times. I tried to reset passcode- again “ account not authenticated”. I contact customer support- after 2 days- they reply they cannot find my account- they need more info.
I send info immediately. I wait another day. I call customer service #. I hold for 1 hr and 6 minutes. A young girl answers- then says she cannot find my account then- Hangs Up!!! Yes, she hangs up. I was not rude- even though I waited. I wanted to keep her on the phone. She hangs up.
I call my bank. Place a stop payment and block on all Christian Mingle charges. I’m sorry future boyfriend I almost met- I guess it wasn’t meant to be.Show lessanti ang
?
I had this app before but deleted it because they charge for the most minute functionality which most other dating apps give as freebies. For some reason, I’m trying it out again but I’m sure I’ll delete it once I realize that they want money before you can see if it may be worth it. But I point here is that I uploaded pics for my profile yesterday and they are still pending today. Like do they have only one person in charge of screening photos? Odd. But whoever is in charge of the business model for this app doesn’t seem to understand that charging for every single functionality turns away most users. If the makers need money, it would be best to allow limited functionality such as matching/sending message to give the user an idea of possibilities. You have to lose a penny to make a dollar. I mean that’s they way other apps sucker me into paying by the freebiesShow lesskelznc
Eh, I Tried?
Spent $150 on a 6 month membership. Had 1 connection where we talked for 2 weeks and it ended because she lived a couple of hours away and the conversation was getting dry. The lack of connections was probably due to me living in a small, college town, not being very attractive, and age range. The large towns are an hour or two away and most matches lived there. I’m 22 and there’s not a whole lot of options. Most women in my age range have their filter set to 18-20 or 23-35. The app worked well for the most part, but it crashed once or twice and wouldn’t let me log in for a day or two. If you’re 18-20, or an older guy looking for a younger woman, and live in a big town, you should have plenty of options. Otherwise you don’t have a lot to work with and hope for a miracle on Bumble.Show lessxXWillbossXx
Worst Dating App Ever- Rip off
After reading some of the many other reviews that were like mine, I am convinced that these guys are exploiting Christian people. They are using God’s name to take money from believers who are trying to find a way to connect with other believers. They offer sub-par service with no protection and no recourse when you realize their product is garbage. My original review is below. They should be ashamed of themselves.
New to dating apps, but this one never worked. It kept resetting my age to 50 yr old. I’m 37. I would have to regularly re-start the app for it to acknowledge my subscription. Full of bot accounts and scammers looking for personal info. It was slow and links would either not open or open two or three times, so that I had to close out and start over whatever I was trying to do (e.g. message someone). The worst thing is, that I have send 4 messages to tech support asking for help and still haven’t gotten any responses. Not worth my time or money.Show lessJPOD50
