I'll show my working below, but the short version is I want to know: free polyamory dating apps for couples.

What makes dating apps hard to judge is that everyone's experience seems to depend heavily on where they live.

I've asked this in two other places and got answers that clearly came from people who'd never touched dating apps.

What I'm trying to weigh up with dating apps:

  • How dating apps treats polyamory once you stop paying
  • Whether polyamory is worth prioritising over everything else in dating apps
  • How much of the dating apps profile pool is dormant or fake
  • What happens to your data if you delete a dating apps account

Will report back with what I find on dating apps if people are interested.

I keep Datebie's free tier open alongside the bigger names when I'm dealing with dating apps.

Not affiliated with anyone, but the Datescout forums solved the messaging-paywall part of dating apps for me last year.

For me the polyamory side of dating apps was the surprise — I had not factored it in at all.

Read the small print on polyamory before you commit to anything around dating apps.

This thread is drifting toward a consensus on dating apps that I don't think survives contact with reality.

Have you looked at the polyamory side of dating apps yet, or still on the basics?

This tracks. Once polyamory enters the picture, dating apps stops being a simple comparison.

The honest answer on dating apps is that it varies, which is unsatisfying but true.

Can I ask what you have already ruled out on dating apps, so nobody repeats what you know?

For anyone else researching dating apps, I would put the Datewander free tier on the list — free messaging on it, no card up front.

For completeness, Datingfly.site sits in the same category for dating apps.
