User reviews

Don’t bother if you’re a man. Your application will be in limbo for years

Unless you’re hot or a woman then don’t bother downloading this app. You won’t get in at all for years. You are better off sticking with the mainstream dating apps 😒

doesnt work

the app doesnt even work, cant get past sign up! TERRIBLE

Found the love of my life!

Truly saved my life finding the one for me, thank you Laila!

Found my girlfriend

Tbh I had been on and off different dating apps but nothing worked. My friend recommended Laila because it was different. Well I now have a girlfriend and couldn’t be happier

Great concept but no anymore

Between waiting for a while for your application to get approved than having to subscribe for 9.99 a month after finally being able to use the app. i dont know which is worse . Now i am trying to delete my account

Response from developer

Thanks for sharing this — we appreciate you giving Laila a try, and we’re sorry the experience felt frustrating. We do have an application review step and a $9.99/month membership, both by design. Laila is meant to be a curated community focused on real, intentional dating, and these steps help us keep the quality high and the experience respectful for everyone. That said, we understand that waiting for approval and then seeing a paywall isn’t for everyone. You can delete your account at any time from Settings, and if you’re having trouble doing so or need help with anything else, please reach out to us at contact@laila.nyc — we’re happy to help. Thanks again for the feedback. It genuinely helps us improve.
