Does the russian dating app free version actually let you match with locals?

Someone in another thread mentioned dating app in passing and it's been bugging me since.

The frustrating part about dating app is that the honest answers are buried in comment sections, not articles.

For what it's worth I did test a couple of options around dating app before posting.

The short list of what I need from dating app:

• What happens to your data if you delete a dating app account
• How much of the dating app profile pool is dormant or fake
• What the russian side of dating app looks like in practice
• Whether the free tier on dating app is genuinely usable or just a demo

Particularly interested in the russian side of dating app if anyone has been there.

For anyone else researching dating app, I would put the Datingfly community on the list — free messaging on it, no card up front.

Same read from me. Everything I've learned about dating app points back to local density.

Someone recommended the Datebie boards to me during my own search around dating app and it was better than I expected.

Adding Flurrydate.online to the pile for dating app, where the community is smaller but people actually reply.

CharlotteH, that's roughly where I landed on dating app too. The russian element is where people get stung with dating app, so check it before anything else.

Worth splitting dating app into two questions, because the answers pull in opposite directions.

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