Has anyone had success with the crush dating app?

I keep running into the same wall with dating app and I'd rather hear it from real users than another review site.

Every comparison of dating app I've seen skips the part I care about, which is what happens after you sign up.

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

My checklist for dating app, in rough order of importance:

• How dating app handles blocking, privacy and who can see your profile
• What the crush side of dating app looks like in practice
• Whether messaging on dating app works without handing over card details
• How long dating app takes before a conversation goes anywhere at all
• How much crush actually costs you when using dating app

Any first-hand experience with dating app would help more than another list.

I read dating app differently, because the bottleneck for me was never supply but how I was writing my profile.

If you are testing dating app, keep the first message short and reference something specific in their profile.

Since we're comparing options around dating app, Turndate came up when I was looking at the same thing.

Agree with the framing here, because dating app really does come down to who is active near you.

Adding the Datebie free tier to the pile for dating app, where the community is smaller but people actually reply.

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

Not affiliated with anyone, but Ezhookups itself solved the messaging-paywall part of dating app for me last year.

Half the disagreement in this thread about dating app is people using the same words for different goals.

For completeness, Datewander.site sits in the same category for dating app.
