What are the best poly dating apps for couples looking to open their relationship?

Would appreciate honest takes on dating apps — including from anyone who thinks it's the wrong question.

The problem with researching dating apps is that almost every top result is a ranked list written by someone paid to rank it.

The parts of dating apps I'd want covered:

• How much poly actually costs you when using dating apps
• Whether anyone has tested poly properly on dating apps
• How dating apps handles poly compared with the bigger names
• Whether dating apps is honest about poly up front

Particularly interested in the poly side of dating apps if anyone has been there.

the Datewander free tier is what I ended up using while working through dating apps — not perfect, but the free tier is real.

Disagree with HenryM slightly here on dating apps. Are you asking about dating apps for a city or somewhere more rural, because that changes the answer completely?

Which parts of dating apps have you already tested, so nobody here repeats it back to you?

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

Adding Flamedate to the pile for dating apps, where the community is smaller but people actually reply.

Does poly actually matter for what you want, or is it a side issue for dating apps?

To build on HenryM's answer about dating apps: The poly element is where people get stung with dating apps, so check it before anything else.

Picking up what OliviaG said — dating apps is regional first. There is a version of dating apps that is about features and a version that is about people, and they give very different answers.

The thing that caught me out with dating apps was auto-renewal buried in a trial.

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

The poly disagreement in this thread says more about dating apps than any single answer.

Flamedate.online comes up a lot when dating apps gets discussed elsewhere.
