Catholic Dating Made Easier

This app came into my life exactly when I needed it. Frustrated with failed relationships over matters of faith, I vowed to only date practicing Catholics. The Catholic dating pool in my immediate area is SMALL, but about 1.5 hours away, a tall handsome and incredibly faithful Catholic man was looking for someone to love the Lord with. I liked his profile, and the rest is history. Go say your prayers, then download sacred spark. And don’t be lame and skip the voice note intro.

Just got engaged!

My fiancée and I just got engaged and we met through SacredSpark. Like almost all things in life, it’s about how much effort you put into it. I will forever be thankful for the team at SacredSpark for playing a critical role in my life! Deo Gratias!

subpar

I got two matches total and they were hundreds of miles away. I used it for several months and paid for a month

Can’t create account

I have heard great things about this app and was excited to try it. However, I am unable to get past the audio introduction portion while setting up my account. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but nothing seems to work. Super disappointing as I was looking forward to giving this app a chance.

App sucks

You get like two swipes and then it tells you to buy premium.

Created by a power couple who know what we need!

This app is modern, clean, user-friendly, and embodies what I was looking for as a single Catholic. I met someone special thanks to SacredSpark. I will forever be grateful for this app. Give it a try, it’s worth it!

It’s bad

Assumed this app would crash and burn and over promise and under deliver.

Lots of bugs and it simply just does not work well, maybe in a year or so but at best it feels likes beta version app that’s not fully developed

Dating apps suck but this one is pretty good

I appreciate the effort put into an authentically Catholic dating app. I like the features aimed towards more meaningful connection esp with free version (limited likes per day, only seeing one picture, basic info). I really appreciate the options for voice recordings or videos! It does have some tech glitches and would appreciate more messaging features. Been on for about 6 months. We’ll see what happens.

Are guys even seeing my likes??

I like how intentional the app is and how you can connect with Catholic singles all over the US to expand the dating pool. However, right now there are more cons than pros.

1. No one I like ends up matching with me. I’ve been on several dating apps and almost every man I like ends up liking me back (not trying to sound vain just providing context) and on Sacred Spark not a SINGLE guy I’ve liked has matched with me. It makes me question the algorithm.
2. I don’t like the forced voice note. Not everyone wants to do something like that and it should be optional.
3. There shouldn’t be such a tight cap on how many profiles you can look through a day. It’s making the whole dating process so much slower with likes just trickling in and not as many connections being made.

Response from developer

Hi Jill, Thank you so much for your feedback. We’re really glad to hear you appreciate the intentionality of the app! On the matching piece, we’d encourage you to give it a little time. SacredSpark is intentionally designed to move a bit slower than most dating apps, and with our latest release, we actually introduced a new change that encourages users to intentionally respond to people who have already liked them before continuing to send out large numbers of new likes. We’re trying to foster more meaningful engagement and conversations rather than the fast-paced “blast through profiles” culture that exists on many apps today. Regarding the voice note, thank you for that feedback! We’ve found it helps people feel more human and authentic beyond just photos and text, but completely understand that not everyone is comfortable with that format, though, and we really appreciate the feedback as we continue iterating and improving the experience. And on the daily profile limits, that’s also part of our intentional design philosophy. We want to encourage people to slow down, be more thoughtful, and genuinely consider the people they’re viewing rather than endlessly swiping through hundreds of profiles. Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts; feedback like this truly helps us continue refining SacredSpark!

Restricted viewing backfires

Because you can only see one photo (and good portion of people don’t know how to take a good photo/get cropped out by the apps UI), even those you give a chance might immediately get rejected upon matching, which is rather hurtful. Even worse when the stakes are high with only 15 views a day. These restrictions aren’t making people more considerate, because there is less information being provided. The developers of this app seem to ignore that fact that physical attraction is a real and important thing in a relationship. Of course not the only thing, but it is a huge aspect.

So disappointing.

Look deeper

You can actually use the free version! I like that it makes you wait to see more pictures and gives you a limit to how many people you can “like” in a day. It really does make you focus more on each person.

Had a lot of hope

So I have been using this app for a few days, I know people who have had good luck on the creators matchmaking threads and was hoping the app would be a new option for Catholics aside from the abysmal Catholic Match. First impressions are the app looks good, and is easy to navigate. Requires you to start with a voice introduction (though I have found multiple profiles that just have silence in theirs and let it run for 30 seconds so no one seems to be checking on those. They limit how many profiles you can view every day to 15, to make the experience more “intentional” and less like swiping culture… unless you’re willing to pay in which case swipe away. They blur all the pictures except for 1 on each of the profiles to try and make the matches more than just appearance, so you can consider the whole person… once again unless you wanna pay, then you get access to all the pictures. You’re are limited to 3 likes a day… but if you want to pay, you get the drill. Is it better than Catholicmatch? Yes. I just wish they would stop trying to dress up why they have the paywalls and just admit they are a business and they want the money.

I do still think there is hope for this app and that’s why I’m giving it 3 stars, it’s still small enough they can fix some of these issue without major disruption and improve overall user experience.

Hi! Thanks so much for being here! We're so glad you're enjoying the app and are hopeful! Regarding the optional premium plan; in an ideal world everything could be completely free, but realistically we have to make sure the platform can sustain itself; from development and infrastructure to support and safety. Our goal is simply to structure things in a way that allows the mission to continue long-term.
