How Cuff Works: 1. Create your profile (real first name, 18+ age verification, interests, bio, and a profile photo). 2. Browse active profiles from the past week, sorted by most recently active. 3. Send a like to people you’d like to meet. 4. If it’s mutual, you become Matches and can message or video call each other. Cuff is a profile-based dating platform built around mutual selection and consent. You can only message or video call someone after you both match. Safety: - Profile photos are checked for safety before being shown in Discover. - You can report and unmatch at any time. Have fun meeting new people :) A subscription may be required to access certain features.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Innovative Chat at none against Cuff's 5. Innovative Chat also leads on ads (none vs shown). Cuff's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and chart position (#184 vs unranked). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
