happening.” -The Washington Post

### 4/5 — Preview

*2026-08-03*

There should be an ability to preview likes that you may have or suggestions for matches or suggestions for a match

### 2/5 — Great idea, poor execution. 2.5 stars.

*2026-07-21*

I’ve had matches where we never even started talking, and I’ve had conversations that just stopped and never picked back up. You have no idea whether someone intentionally ghosted you or whether they simply got busy or forgot.

I think a feature that gives people a gentle reminder if they haven’t messaged in, say, a week could help prevent some matches and conversations from ending prematurely and reduce the uncertainty that comes with ghosting.

Having something like this would, I think, make the dating app experience a little less frustrating. 

Also, the notification feature in general is really buggy and inconsistent.

### 1/5 — Seems like a good idea, but…

*2026-07-17*

I’m not sure what’s happening but the app or website hasn’t been loading for the last few days, so I’m curious if the developer could be made aware here. 

It started off working well, but I don’t know if it’s something on my end. It stopped loading and the screen goes dark.

### 5/5 — Seems too easy

*2026-07-15*

Just got done with my profile and now looking at the girls that I have to look for and I’m really enjoying the scenery myself thus far

### 3/5 — still buggy.

*2026-05-12*

the app’s newest trick is to suddenly generate a random push notification every time i open it, when there’s literally no new messages or likes, and i have to close and reopen it no less than 20 times for it to go away. And still, I keep seeing the same 30 people. I know it’s a smaller app base, but i refuse to believe that with my distance set to ALL, that there’s nobody else on here. Also, I reported an account that seemed to keep coming up after disliking it 3 times, concerned it was spam/fake but nothing seemed to be done because that same account came back a 4th time, me resorting to a block. Idk where their priorities are with this app 🤷🏽‍♂️

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-05-11, version 7.3*

There is no one that lives in my area on that dating unfortunately

### 3/5 — Has potential but severely lacking

*2026-03-20*

I’m not sure if the developers of this app are new to developing apps, but there are so many bugs and glitches. Half the time I see I have a new message, and it’s just a message from the app telling me how to verify my profile (it’s already verified)
Every time I get worried that my account is no longer verified but it’s still verified. 
So… when I receive notifications it’s about something irrelevant/wrong and I don’t receive notifications for actual messages from others. Fix it please!

### 4/5 — I like it

*2026-03-01*

I wish more people were on the app but overall it’s easy to use and connect with people.

### 1/5 — Awful!! Waste of time and effort!!

*2026-02-25*

I had been on this app since the very beginning and I was completely honest on my profile yet I never got any likes or matches the whole time I was on this app. In the beginning this app was truly free which was very good for disabled dating but now you have to pay for the tools that may help you and not everyone can pay for the services, that’s false advertising.

**Developer response:** Hi there, we apologize for your experience. We’d love to learn more— if you could email us at contact@dateabilityapp.com, we’d greatly appreciate it! We have a robust free version that does not put any limits on Likes, Matches, or Messages!

### 1/5 — Tricky app

*2026-02-19*

Twice now I have received and accepted an offer for two free months after canceling a one month subscription and twice I have been charged just days after accepting the “free” offer. I am now gone for good from this app.

**Developer response:** Hi there, we would like to take a further look into this. Could you please contact us at contact@dateabilityapp.com?

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 7.5 — 2026-08-07

Sparks are here!

Every so often someone catches your eye and a Like just doesn't say enough. That's what Sparks are for - send one and you'll rise to the top of their Likes, so the people you're most excited about actually notice. Dateability+ members get a free batch of Sparks each week, because we're hopeless romantics.

We also politely showed a few bugs the door and smoothed out the rough edges.

### 7.4 — 2026-06-16

We added a little something this release: you can now leave us a review without ever leaving the app. No awkward shuffle to the App Store, no losing your place mid-swipe. Tell us we’re great. Or don’t. (But, you know, do.)
Plus the usual: a few bugs swiped left, a little polish swiped right.

### 7.3 — 2026-03-04

Minor fixes and improvements.

### 7.2 — 2025-12-09

We’ve been busy teaching the app some new tricks. It can now speak metric *and* imperial (because numbers are hard and we respect your choices), keep a sharper eye on what you haven’t read yet, and wear a nicer badge when there’s something waiting for you. Behind the scenes, we also gave our email system a glow-up and set up some new analytics plumbing so everything runs smoother and smarter.

### 7.1 — 2025-09-11

Introducing a brand new Dateability! From the technology to the design, Dateability has undergone a complete transformation to give you a faster, prettier, and more accessible experience. We have also improved our algorithm to find you a compatible match, plus more fixes and improvements!
