Ridiculous - no filter by Christian faith

This app once let you filter by your Christian faith and location. It's just impossible now. Even with a platinum subscription, I have to browse hundreds of profiles before finding someone from my own church in my area. Do NOT waste your money. It's not even clear how many of these profiles are legacy profiles. Once you like or pass on someone, there's NO way to see those profiles again - you're forced to keep swiping. There's not even an option for premium members to undo an action or see the profiles they've shortlisted. Utter waste of $. Again, do NOT waste yours.

Hi eastlongislander, We're sorry to hear this. Premium does include Match Preferences with additional filters to help narrow who you see, and we've shared your specific feedback about browsing, revisiting profiles, and shortlisting with our product team — that's valuable input.

Don’t bother!

This review will be sent to a social media & two other orgs

I am writing this review after several months of using Christian Mingle, and I am ultimately very disappointed.
The primary issue I encountered was the overwhelming number of scammers and fake profiles ("catfish"). It feels like a significant portion of the user base is not genuine, which makes it extremely difficult to connect with real people. Furthermore, the reporting process for these fraudulent accounts is cumbersome and ineffective.
Beyond the safety concerns, I also found the platform’s demographic to be quite narrow, lacking the political and social diversity I was hoping to find in a partner.
Between the high volume of bots and the lack of quality matches, I do not believe this service is worth the cost of a premium subscription. I would suggest looking elsewhere if you are seeking a serious, safe, and authentic dating experience

Hi LL6040tingle, Disappointed to hear this. We take fraud seriously and remove accounts that violate our guidelines, and reporting a suspicious profile directly from it helps our team act. Christian Mingle is built around shared Christian faith and values by design, which shapes who's part of the community.

PLEASE READ BEFORE SUBSCRIBING

This week I downloaded the Christian Mingle dating app. Everything was going well as far as meeting and talking to some men. About two days in the entire website must have gone down because I could log in. Then yesterday I had been blocked from my account right after sending to someone I was talking to. I have tried to reach out in several ways to get support with no avail. Their contact support button leads to a page saying that their site is currently down for maintenance.. I also tried emailing them to the email address that they offer with no response. I looked them up on Instagram and decided not to try there because they haven’t been active on that page for a couple of years.. And I looked them up on Facebook and the last time they posted on Facebook was this past February. I still sent a message just in case there, but there has been no response. This morning I tried sending a reply back to the original email I had received when I first signed up and I automated email response that they were forwarding that email. I’m hoping they will do so and restore my account. I did pay for a three month membership. However, I am going to go back to Apple, and see if I can get a full refund. As it hasn’t even been a week using this app! This is not just the app. This is also online on their website through a computer. Please be careful, you may want to just move on instead of wasting your money and time! If anything happens, there is no one to help!

Hi Licorice_smile_22, We're sorry to hear this — being locked out with no way to reach anyone is a serious concern, and we'd encourage one more try at support@christianmingle.com, referencing this review for context. Since you subscribed through Apple, a refund request there is handled directly by Apple and doesn't depend on our team's response.

Blocked Without Explanation or Appeal

I maintained an account for several months. I had no matches and never exchanged messages with anyone. One day I found my account had been blocked for ‘activity that may not align with our guidelines.’ When I contacted support, they told me their system had detected ‘inconsistencies’ but would not explain what those were and said there is no appeal process. I understand platforms need moderation, but permanently blocking an account without identifying the issue or providing any meaningful review process left me very disappointed.

Hi ChemistryCaptain, We're sorry to hear this — not being able to understand why your account was restricted is a fair thing to be frustrated by. We'd encourage you to reach out to support@christianmingle.com once more; a member of our team can take a fresh look at your account and share what they're able to.

Improved, but ignores settings

While there are cosmetic improvements to the app from the last time I used it, it is the worst dating app I’ve used. Every time I login I have to re-save my data collection permissions, it ignores the filters I set, it is slow and there are a lot of abandoned profiles. I’m also not convinced that the app actually shows you anyone who liked your profile or show any one you liked your profile, and at nearly $50/ month to find that out for sure and to see my likes is entirely to expensive. Deleting the app and likely will not try it again unless the experience is greatly improved

Uncomfortable

I did not have it downloaded very long because I felt like they asked too many personal questions. Even wanting to know what church I go to and know the town I live in. For these dating apps, I only see the state that I live in for safety purposes. You never know what intentions people may have. They might say their question, but their intentions say otherwise. With the information they were wanting me to give anyone at any time could come and find me without my knowledge.

Hi Buttercup, We're sorry to hear this made you uneasy — safety while dating is something we take seriously too. Questions like church and location help us match you with people who share your faith and are realistically nearby, rather than being shared for any other purpose. We've passed your feedback on to the appropriate department for review.

Chatting should be a basic feature

I downloaded this yesterday and I woke up to someone who likes my profile and they left an intro. I couldn’t find a way to respond and honestly I was confused so k was looking it up on google. But then I realized I need a subscription to be able to respond; and I feel like I’m ghosting the guy even though I quite literally just can’t talk to him. Personally I find that ludicrous, the reason you go on a dating app is to find people that you have common ground with, talk to them, and maybe get into a relationship. Do I just have to hope that the person I like also likes me? Or do I just have to hope they have a subscription just so we can maybe chat and it ends up not working out anyway? Genuinely how am I going to expect to meet someone when I can’t even answer their question without paying an absurd amount of money? And even then the subscription doesn’t give you much in the first place. I would be all for a subscription if it gave me more OR was cheaper.

Hi Sm0ll queen, We're sorry to hear this felt confusing — good news is you're not ghosting him! Intro messages appear in your chat once you match with that person, so liking his profile back is what opens up the conversation, not a subscription. A free account already lets you like, match, and message anyone you've matched with.

Gets banned for not living in a high density area

I installed the app like a month ago, there was only 15 or so girls in my area that were around my age. Once I had gotten through all of them and there was nothing left I deleted the app shortly after and reinstalled it today. I then got banned while using the app because my login history was “suspicious” the only thing suspicious here is how you think that someone deleting the app after realising there’s no one in the area is suspicious. I’m just gonna go back to hinge.

Hi Your mum, We're sorry to hear this. New members join regularly, and widening your distance or preferences can surface more matches as the pool refreshes. As for the suspension, a login flag after reinstalling doesn't sound right, and that's worth a closer look — support@christianmingle.com can review your account and clarify what happened.

Really good to meet Christians

It’s really good to meet Christian’s to ensure we are on the same page to start, like in lifestyle, caring for one another, seeking for the best for all of humanity in the whole world. We believe in a better future for all humanity in peace and love with Jesus Christ as our king and we are all one with our Father God.

Thank you for sharing this — it's exactly the kind of shared foundation we hope our members find here. Starting from common values and a faith in Christ makes all the difference in building something real. We're grateful to be part of that journey for you.

Do not try this

Very limited .

Hi Vonnie0426, Disappointed to hear it's felt limited. Free members can like, match, and message their matches, and adjusting your search preferences often surfaces more people — support.christianmingle.com has tips for getting the most from your profile

Low options.

First, the subscription price is $70 a month! That’s insane. You only have that one option for subscription and they don’t offer discounted “bundles” like the use too. You can have the free membership but can’t see who likes you or message with matches, so the free membership is pointless. You can only search in your country.

Hi Barefoot-blonde78, Disappointed to hear this. Free members can like, match, and message their matches and send a few intros each week — seeing who liked you first is a Premium feature. Plans and pricing vary and appear at checkout, and support@christianmingle.com can help you compare options or adjust your search preferences.

Too Many Scammers

I met four people on this all in less than two months. Three were scammers. Two used stolen photos. One of those two asked me for money. The other I caught in a lie. The third person used AI generated photos so I didn’t even bother talking to him. The fourth seemed like a real person and we arranged to meet but then he just quit talking. This app doesn’t do enough to try to weed out scammers. They could add facial recognition software which compares your face to you photo so at least you know the person setting up the account is the person in the profile photo. They should also require you to allow the app to access your phone’s location and require that location to be used when setting up a profile. These two things would go a long way to eliminating some of the scammers.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’ve recently released updates to Christian Mingle that includes the photo verification icon, so we recommend checking that you’re running the latest version of the app! Regarding coming across unauthentic profiles, if you encounter any profile or message that violates our guidelines or seems suspicious, we urge you to use the report function immediately. Reporting suspicious profiles is invaluable in helping us maintain a safe and welcoming platform for everyone. Our team reviews every report and will take appropriate action.

No Pictures

Nine out of 10 women on this app do not have pictures. I don’t believe it is because they didn’t want to upload. But I think the app has a hard time loading the pictures.

Terrible app and UX

This was a complete waste of $50! I lost matches I liked and then couldn’t ever get them back. I liked someone in my Recommended list and the also disappeared and I had no idea why. Couldn’t find an explanation in the help guide. Then when trying to figure out what one of the icons meant in Discover tried to exit out of it and it liked someone I’d never like and there was no way to undo that, so I had to just cancel my account after a few days even though I paid. I also didn’t like how you receive a limited list of recommendations and then have to wait 24 hours or more to see another batch. You can’t just search profiles at your own pace, rather you’re served up potential matches in small batches. Then you have to waste time just going through the Discover which is full of people you’d never want to match with based on what you’re looking for. All the people liking me were wait out of my location requirements, too. The logic and the UX just weren’t working for me, so I’m moving to another app.

Disappointed

I decided to pay for the premium but I will probably cancel when the month is up. I opened up all my filters and still not getting many people in the discover section and basically 0-1 in the recommended when it is suppose to be 10. Feel like I’m paying for something I’m not getting. It will often said me a notification that there is a like but no one is there. Definitely think the app is missing some features especially for an expensive subscription.
Don’t spend the money.

Why does it keep recommending people far away?

I put 39 miles max, and it keeps recommending people who live 3 plus hours away. Why?

Not sure it’s possible to match w/o paying

The actual app interface has greatly improved since the last time I used it. However, a large number of the profiles, appear to be abandoned, duplicates, or fake. Despite the dozen or so like I received, none of those profiles seem to have come across the discovery feed for me to view. I did send more likes on this app than any other, but again, I have no idea how many of those profiles have been abandoned, or if they’re even seeing my profile. Sure I could pay to see my likes, but not at $50/mo. That’s nearly 5 times the cost of a subscription to most streaming services.

Horrible

Encountered a system error which resulted in my profile being blocked by the application and upon contacting customer support I was told that it was final even if it is a mishap on their part. Glad I didn’t spend $50 on a monthly membership when this is how they treat new user of their application. Didn’t even have a profile for 24 hours.
