Is the hinge dating app free version enough to find a soulmate?

Genuine question for the board, and I've tried to search first: is the hinge dating app free version enough to find a soulmate.

Nobody writing about dating app seems willing to say plainly when something isn't worth the time.

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

Narrowing it down, here is what matters to me about dating app:

• Whether dating app is honest about soulmate up front
• How dating app handles soulmate compared with the bigger names
• How dating app treats soulmate once you stop paying
• Whether soulmate is worth prioritising over everything else in dating app
• What the soulmate side of dating app looks like in practice

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

Depends what you mean by dating app, because for a serious relationship the answer differs from a casual one.
