What's New in Candid

1.2.4

September 25, 2026

• Invite a friend: share your invite link or code from the You tab. When they join and attend their first event, you get an event credit on us. Got a code from a friend? Add it when you sign up. • Better control of notifications • Your church: pick the church you attend and see its parish. Picks and profiles show "Same parish as you" when it applies, and you choose who can see your church (only you, same-parish badge only, matches only, or everyone). • Spot something off? Flag a church's name, address, pin or website, mark a duplicate or a closed church, or add one we're missing. Follow every fix under "Your church fixes." • Candid Premium now has Monthly, 6-Month and Annual plans, with your savings shown up front. Pick how often you pay; the membership is the same on every plan.

0 really. Looks to me like another waste of time.

Response from developer

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts. I'd genuinely love to understand what shaped this impression, because we've built Candid specifically to be different from what most people picture when they hear "dating app." If you haven't tried an event yet, I'd encourage you to give one a shot before writing us off. And if you did and something specific fell short, please reach out to me at support@candiddating.net so I can make it right. - Mariana, Candid Co-Founder & CPO

Technical Issues

Exactly the type of app I’ve been looking for. There are still various bugs that need to be ironed out though. Sometimes when you click on someone’s profile, the screen gets blown up so it’s weirdly zoomed-in in a way that you can’t see the profile information. It also keeps you from accessing the exit button, so I literally have to close the app in order to get back to the home page.

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind words and for the specific bug report. This feedback helps us know what to fix. We've recently pushed a refreshed version of the app with a lot of bug fixes and improvements. Update to the latest build and give it another look, I think you'll notice a real difference. If the profile zoom issue is still there, email me directly at support@candiddating.net and I'll get it to our CTO right away. - Mariana, Candid Co-Founder & CPO

New country

There are people from Puerto Rico in the app, you should also mention at the list of places Puerto Rico.

Response from developer

Thank you for flagging this! Puerto Rico is now officially listed in the app thanks to your feedback. Really appreciate you taking the time to point this out. - Mariana, Candid Co-Founder & CPO

The idea is good!

I like the fact that I can talk to people face to face and see if there’s a connection before committing to chatting with them more. Definitely more efficient than swiping apps

Technical issues

I tried attending two died dating events through the app, and both times I checked in as soon as I was able but had to wait for *over an hour* before I got paired with someone else for a sped date. The speed dating events only last 1.5 hours.

The first time, after waiting an hour I got paired with 2 people who apparently didn’t have a stable internet connection to start the video chat, and then got paired with 1 person who I did talk to.
A single 6 minute conversation in a 1.5 hour speed dating event:

The second time, I checked in as soon as I could, and didn’t get paired with *anyone* for the entire 1.5 hour event.

I love the concept, but either not enough people are using the app to make the speed dating events worthwhile, or there are serious technical issues with the app.

Response from developer

Thank you for coming back after a disappointing first event and for being honest about your second experience. An event with zero pairings is not the norm for our events. Please email me at support@candiddating.net. I'd like to look into both sessions and make it right. - Mariana, Co-Founder at Candid
