Ten(r)out of ten(r) for changing the process
What the team has built is a thoughtful way of knowing you, changing the dating process, and making dating a more time efficient process. Everyone should try!
Refreshing dating app
I’ve had a really good experience with Tenr so far. The matches feel higher quality and more intentional than on most dating apps, and the overall experience feels fresh and thoughtfully designed. Definitely worth trying.
Finally!!
I knew within 30 seconds she wasn’t a match and having the saving grace of the automated timer to say nothing of not wasting an evening on an expensive dinner. This is the way modern dating should be.
Worse results than free alternatives
You pay for the privilege of a ten-minute conversation which is really not enough time for a vibe check. I only ever got one match in two months and they kept rescheduling, then I finally missed it by mistake and was penalized. Support never responded to my email, which basically said that if I’m doing my best to honor the other’s second reschedule request and it ultimately falls through, it should also partially be on them for not honoring the original time, but now 0/1 is 0% which makes my profile look bad. Due to the way the app is marketed, most of the girls are basic and type A. I get way better results using the free versions of hinge and even tinder, so by that measure this was a failed experiment and waste of $30. Was excited to try something new and minimize back and forth but alas - it just doesn’t work.

Room for improvement
After a few months I finally got my first video date. I was surprised to discover that confirming the date requires a subscription, as this wasn’t clear during onboarding or while using the app. I think many people would have appreciated knowing this upfront, or it would be ideal having a non premium, free option with limitations similar to other dating apps(ads, etc.)I like the concept, but I can’t justify paying for another dating subscription.
