Ever wished Spotify or Letterboxd had a dating mode? Meet people who share your niche cultural taste. Most dating apps ask about broad interests like “movies,” “music,” or “travel.” But those labels say very little about who someone really is. What creates real alignment are the specifics — the particular film by your favorite director that you can rewatch endlessly, the novel you still think about years later, the album you always return to, or the place you like to go because the people there somehow feel like your kind of crowd. When two people genuinely care about the same films, books, music, or places, meeting tends to feel smoother and more natural. There’s less guessing, fewer mismatches, and fewer moments of wondering whether you’re really on the same wavelength. Shampoo was built for those kinds of connections. Instead of endless swiping, your specific cultural tastes do the filtering first. Every day, you’ll meet two people who share your taste — so when you start talking, it already feels like you’re coming from the same place. --- Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Shampoo. at none against MyTypes's shown. Shampoo. also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). MyTypes's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly) and ratings volume (33 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MyTypes sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Shampoo. sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Shampoo. holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MyTypes has 33 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 95% of MyTypes's written reviews are positive against 81% of Shampoo.'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MyTypes ships an update every 3 days, Shampoo. fortnightly. Both last shipped on September 22, 2026.
