Which app for dating free users can I use to find local singles?

This might be an obvious question to some of you, but I'm stuck on local singles.

The reviews I can find on local singles never say what the free tier actually lets you do.

The criteria I keep coming back to on local singles:

• Whether the matching in local singles does anything beyond distance
• Whether the local singles experience holds up after the first fortnight
• Whether anyone has tested users properly on local singles
• Whether users is worth prioritising over everything else in local singles
• Whether local singles is honest about users up front
