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

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

My own attempt at mobile app lasted a month and ended with me deleting three apps.

What I'm trying to weigh up with mobile app:

  • How the slow experience on mobile app compares month to month
  • How quickly mobile app puts a paywall in front of a conversation that has started
  • How mobile app treats slow once you stop paying

Happy to be told I'm asking the wrong thing about mobile app.

For anyone else researching mobile app, I would put the Datelink forums on the list — free messaging on it, no card up front.

Anything promising instant matches around mobile app is worth treating with suspicion.

For mobile app, log in at a consistent time each evening, because activity windows matter more than people think.

Flurrydate's free tier is what I ended up using while working through mobile app — not perfect, but the free tier is real.

The slow element is where people get stung with mobile app, so check it before anything else.

Someone recommended Datewander to me during my own search around mobile app and it was better than I expected.

Picking up what Ella Simmons said — mobile app is regional first. The slow disagreement in this thread says more about mobile app than any single answer.

This tracks. Once slow enters the picture, mobile app stops being a simple comparison.
