Verdict

The call

MingleSea and PairUp are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters โ€” price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them โ€” neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.

Both are free to download. MingleSea sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and PairUp sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
