Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LUV Central at none against InDating's 5. LUV Central also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 67%). InDating's advantage is ratings volume (2.2K vs 25) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and update cadence there is nothing between them.
