Needs an application

This is the only dating app where you need to apply for membership by providing your LinkedIn. I understand that removes the unserious folks but it also means a lot less people will sign up so there are fewer options to choose from. I loved the concept as someone in the diaspora, but I don’t think I’m the target audience because there needs to be a clear separation between my social life and my professional life.

Response from developer

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We completely understand your preference to keep your personal and professional lives separate. We use LinkedIn as part of our membership screening process to help us build a trusted community of professionals. However, your LinkedIn profile is not displayed to other members, and your professional information isn't shared publicly on Tova. You're also right that our application process may limit the number of people who join, but we're intentionally prioritizing quality and meaningful connections over quantity. We appreciate your perspective and hope you'll reconsider giving Tova a chance!

Ore

They just suspended my account for no reason

Response from developer

We're sorry to hear about this. Accounts may be suspended for various reasons, including potential violations of our community guidelines or security concerns. If you believe your account was suspended in error, please contact our support team with your registered email address so we can review your account and provide clarification.

Not good!

Very terrible app. Useless!

Response from developer

Sorry to hear that. We’d really appreciate a bit more detail about what went wrong so we can look into it and improve your experience on Tova.

No matches

I understand the sentiment behind this app for dating in the diaspora but it is lacking in that there are not a lot of users hence no matches. Even with not putting any filters such as age, dating intentions etc, it kept saying no matches. The fact that you even have to pay a subscription to view “full” matches made no difference.
It was a waste of my subscription.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. Tova has since opened up worldwide, while keeping the same high membership and verification standards. This means a much larger pool of members and more opportunities for meaningful matches across different cities and countries.

Not worth it

Options are few. It’s not worth trying.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. Since your review, Tova has expanded worldwide while maintaining the same high membership standards. That means a much larger pool of members and more opportunities to find strong matches.

VERY INTENTIONAL

There are a lot of dating apps out there but this is the most intentional one I have come across. As Africans in Diaspora, it can be hard connecting with others like us in all the noise out there.

This one focuses on that idea and it does so efficiently. Definitely recommending!!!!

Response from developer

This means a lot to us. Tova was built to cut through the noise and create intentional connections for Africans in the diaspora. Thank you for the support and for recommending us!

More location options

It does not have all cities, I just had to put another closer or popular city for it to move me on in the sign up process.

There should be a feature where one just types in the city they live in and not have to select just the ones the app recognizes.

Saved a potential match only to not have access to it. You need payment plan to even swipe right or connect to anybody. What a waste!

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. Tova currently supports a curated list of cities. If your exact city is not listed yet, selecting the closest major city is intentional and does not limit your ability to be matched with people nearby. We are actively expanding city coverage as the community grows. Saving profiles is free. Interacting or messaging requires an active subscription, which is clearly communicated during signup. Tova is a premium app by design and prioritizes quality matches over unlimited free swiping. If you are looking for a fully free dating experience, Tova may not be the right fit. That is okay. We appreciate you trying the app.

No Free Version

At first the app was good but now everything you have to subscribe and purchase to even connect or see your matches. Regular dating apps they atleast have a free version. This app to do anything you have to pay for it.

Response from developer

Tova is intentionally built as a premium, members-only dating app. You can browse profiles, discover people, and apply filters for free. Messaging and interactions are available only after subscribing, and this is clearly stated during onboarding. Unlike swipe-based apps with large free tiers, Tova is designed for intentional connections, fewer but higher-quality matches, and a curated community. The subscription helps maintain that standard and reduces spam, fake profiles, and low-effort interactions. If you’re looking for a fully free dating app, Tova may not be the right fit (and that’s okay). We appreciate you giving it a try.

Highly recommend

I appreciate the intentionally behind every feature in this app!

Response from developer

Thank you. We really do put thought into everything we build, so it means a lot that you noticed. Appreciate you taking the time to drop a review. 🙏🏾

Love the app!!

For Africans in the diaspora looking for something real Tova has been such a good space. You don’t have to over explain your background or why certain things matter. The people there just gets it. It feels comfortable and honestly it’s worth trying. I highly recommend!

The interface is very user friendly too!!

We appreciate the thoughtful review and we are happy Tova feels like the right space for you :)

Great App!!💜

The user experience has been great overall. It took a bit of time to get verified, but I appreciate that, it shows they’re prioritizing safety. My favourite feature is the discovery section, where I can see people outside my usual interests. It’s a thoughtful touch that reminds me of Instagram’s Explore page. I definitely see the app’s potential and I’m excited to find my match!
