User reviews

Never anyone to swipe

I’m a gay man using the app and there’s never anyone to swipe from. I don’t get any notifications of when I can swipe again. Like I check maybe twice a week and it always says “come back soon, for now we’re only showing a small batch of people per day” but this ALWAYS comes up. I might as well delete the space it’s taking on my phone.

I love SOON

Finally a non-weird way to meet singles in person without having to endlessly swipe on apps constantly and start convos that almost never lead to dates. I love SOON and use it every week!

A modern dating app

I really like marching with someone with the intention to meet. Removes some insecurities. Also, went on to speed dating event with them and it was well organised and everyone had a great time! They also did a personal profile consultation for free which is amazing! I was highly recommend checking out the app.

Surprisingly Better Than Hinge

There’s a specific kind of person that lives in SF & Soon does a really good job of directing the user experience towards intention & asking people out. It is a step improvement over Hinge which was a step improvement over Tinder/Bumble/etc. Surprisingly enjoying it so far. Intentionality is something that is missing from any dating app that exists, & if you’re serious about finding someone, those features are appreciated. Soon curates a good experience for this.
