Don’t buy any subscription plan

Long story short I am an engineer and after digging deep into the app foundation and how the backend behaves I figured out what is really going on. The moment you pay for a subscription you basically get highlighted only for the first 24 hours. That is the only window where genuine profiles actually get to see you. After that if you bought a six month plan for example your profile visibility drops off completely for the remaining duration. It is as good as a shadow ban. Your profile will not be shown to potential matches and even if you send likes or sparkles they simply do not reflect on the other person’s account.

Most of the accounts on there are inactive anyway. There was a time when we had the SENT tab where we could see when a user was last online. Back then I noticed that a huge number of profiles had not been active for weeks or even months. When my plan was about to expire the customer support team was very persistent about pushing me to renew their plan. I showed them evidence of inactive accounts and honestly I feel stupid for pointing it out because shortly after that the last active feature disappeared from the Betterhalf app.

Do not fall into the trap of buying the crown badge. It does absolutely nothing. And to the men who are frustrated no the issue is not you. We are the product here and their business model does not depend on you actually finding someone.

I am deleting this app today.

Hi Vegito, thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re really sorry to hear that your experience led you to feel this way—that's not what we want for our users. We want to clarify that Betterhalf does not reduce or “shadow ban” profile visibility after a subscription. Profile reach and engagement can vary based on preferences, activity, and availability of other users, and features are continuously updated to improve overall experience. We understand your concerns regarding inactive profiles and visibility, and this is something we actively work on to ensure better quality and relevance. Also, responses and interactions depend entirely on the other users’ activity and interest. Your feedback is valuable and will be reviewed internally to improve the platform further. We’re sorry to see you go and wish you all the best ahead.

Waste of Money – Beware of Batterhalf

Batterhalf is a highly manipulative application. At first, it shows you 2–3 people who seem interested in you, but once you buy a membership and try messaging, things change. Most of the time, there’s no reply at all, or you might get 2–3 messages before the conversation ends completely.

It feels like many of the profiles are fake or self-created by the app itself, just to lure users into paying. This is misleading and unfair. In my opinion, Batterhalf is running a fraudulent system to trap people. Please be cautious and avoid wasting your time and money here.

Waste of time

This app is not good; don't buy the premium version.
Firstly, there aren't many profiles available. It claims to use Al to find matches, but the Al doesn't work well.
After you pay for the premium version, they show you 30-50 profiles every day, but only 1-2 of them are from your city,pune,even though you've set pune as a mandatory preference. Even when you've clearly stated that you want matches only in pune, they still show profiles from faraway places like Assam, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Kolkata. It doesn't make sense to go to Kolkata from pune just to meet someone.
When you first get the app, you'll receive likes from people every day. But when you pay for the premium version, they stop showing your profile to others. It's been a whole year, and I haven't received a single like.
Before paying for the premium version, I used to get 5-6 likes every day, but they don't let you see these likes unless you pay for the premium version. My advice is not to waste your money on this app.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback — we’re truly sorry to hear that your experience hasn’t met expectations. We understand how frustrating it can be when the matches shown don’t align with your preferences, especially when you’ve clearly set Pune as a mandatory location. Our AI is designed to prioritize compatibility and preferences, but in some cases, if local matches are limited, it may expand the radius to ensure continued discovery. That said, showing distant profiles when you’ve specified otherwise isn’t ideal, and we’re actively working to improve this. Regarding the drop in visibility and likes post-subscription, that’s definitely not how the system is intended to work. Your concerns may point to a technical or account-specific issue, and we would genuinely like to investigate and resolve it for you. Please reach out to us at feedback@betterhalf.ai or call us at +91 9324468875 from your registered number — our team is ready to assist and ensure you get the experience you signed up for. We appreciate your patience and are committed to making this better. – Team Betterhalf

Worst and Fraud app

I bought their subscription after receiving call from their agent Mr Mansur. Then he suggest take 6 month subscription instead of 3 month. I said any difference in benefits he said no only time frame daily our team share matches with you which is relevant. I bought that package after that got to know second day itself technical glitch no matches received then i asked Mansur he shared customer support id and other numbers then i asked him you can take initiative but no efforts then I asked technical team same time 2 request received from profile and same day they load 20-25 matches. And one request is fraud after sometime she left and remove profile pic. Then i complain regarding this issue and ask for refund then they said no return policy. You do one thing change your preference then might be u get relevant response. Fake people if i wish to buy iphone then how can i opted Oppo or vivo.
That’s the reason suggest don’t invest in this app and complain in reviews so that everyone understand their fraud
Thanks for doing fraud betterhalf team same

From last many days its happen everyday then sending 5-6 irrelevant matches and their work is finish. Yeh saale kutte chor h chor k bacche. Ek baar loot liya baar baar nhi loot paoge.

Worst app for marriage because of constant flood of messages.

I have never been more annoyed by any app than this. There is no option to stop the spamming of messages.

No otp

I am in UNITED KINGDOM No use waste of time and data
Trying to get otp its just giving nothing

Regretting paying these guys!

I paid up for their premium subscription, and now they want me to pay to chat with the matches. Most free apps let you chat with matches! What a joke!
And their customer care doesn’t take a note of that issue and don’t seem interested in remedying the issue.

Horrible app - tries to force you to pay for basic functionality

This is probably the worst matrimonial app put there. Not only is the app buggy, but the design is questionable, and seems like the developers of this app only want to exploit users. Basic functionality such as interacting with incoming requests is hidden behind a paywall. Very frustrating experience overall, and I'd stay away from this - much better alternatives out there.

A Sham Disguised as Serious Matchmaking App !

Seems , BH or Apple deleted my old review so why not I share again to create awareness, especially after using it again for almost 6 months now !
---

After using this app for almost 1.5 years, I can confidently say it's more of a money-making scheme than a genuine matrimonial platform. The costly subscriptions only lead to seeing the same profiles repeatedly, sometimes multiple times within a week or month. I've even observed old interests being recycled, indicating a lack of genuine matches. It's essentially a Tinder clone masquerading as a matrimonial service.

The app preys on users' emotional desires by withholding likes until they pay, and erasing likes after a short period, creating a false sense of urgency. Moreover, the lack of chat or email support, and the option to only provide feedback to the CEO, who never responds, is laughable.

You’ll see many insta adds being run now for this but you’ll never see option for comments because people who have used this app will share genuine experience ..

Overall, it's a sham that exploits users' desires for serious relationships. I'd recommend exploring more reputable matrimonial apps for those seeking genuine connections.

Fake matches, to onboard subscribers

Hello all, I regret to inform you that, my experience with betterhalf has been horrible to say the least. All the profiles here has basically ghosted the platform eras ago. The counter only show 4+ days. The initial matches seem fake to me, since after subscription I tried sending them messages but there was no reply. The sparkles are basically worthless if the ghosted profile receives them. After like one week only, the matches I receive now are the same persons who either rejected me or is a ghosted profile. I never expected that I will be writing an app review myself that is not relevant to the user experience. But since this kind of grey marketing is going on, I had to notify other to be aware. Never pay for this service. Go for shaadi or jeevansathi since their paid tiers are actually useful. I don’t expect my review will make any impact in the betterhalf management. But I am never going to buy anything ever again from here Regrets, Abhishek

A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY

First you pay for a membership and then you have to buy other memberships for them to help you find someone.. WHAT WAS THE FIRST MEMBERSHIP PAYMENT FOR??? COMPLETE SCAM. They hustle you by calling you and telling you that you have multiple connections but without a membership non you can contact and once you pay, those connections never existed🤬

Frustrating experience with this app

I have used the Betterhalf app on and off for the past two years, and my experience has been far from satisfactory. Despite paying a substantial amount, close to 10K, in the hopes of finding a genuine connection leading to marriage, the app has proven to be more of a headache than a helpful tool.

First and foremost, the technical issues with this app are a constant source of frustration. It consistently claims that the internet is not connected, which is both misleading and irritating. The lack of instant notifications and a subpar user interface only add to the overall poor user experience.

In my extensive time using the app, I browsed through approximately 10,000 profiles. Sadly, the vast majority of the women 99% I encountered seemed to be far from serious about finding a meaningful connection. Their lack of urgency and understanding of the importance of time was disheartening. It appears that a significant portion of women on Betterhalf are not genuinely committed to the purpose of the app.

Moreover, my attempts to seek assistance from customer service were in vain. After making a payment, the responsiveness from the customer service team plummeted to nonexistent levels. Despite trying to reach out and even sending notices, there was absolutely no follow-up or resolution to my concerns.

In conclusion, I strongly advise against paying for the Betterhalf app. My two-year journey with this platform has been marked by technical glitches, unresponsive customer service, and a disappointing pool of profiles. Save yourself the time, money, and frustration – explore alternative platforms that prioritize user satisfaction and deliver on their promises. This is my honest review based on a lengthy and unsatisfactory experience with Betterhalf.
