I keep running into the same question about 100 free dating apps for android, so I am putting it to the board properly. What I care about is message limits behind payment — everything else is secondary.

My rule now is simple: judge this kind of site on message limits behind payment in the first three days or move on. Two weeks on this kind of site tells you more about the card request than any review will. I would settle for actually getting a reply at this point. I suspect long-time members will disagree with me here and that is fine.

Anyway, that is where I have landed on 100 free dating apps for android for now.

The checklist I use for apps for android is pretty short. The reason apps for android feels harder than it should is that nothing about message limits behind payment gets disclosed anywhere obvious. Fill the profile out properly before judging apps for android; half-finished profiles make message limits behind payment much worse.

For comparison I have also been using Ezhookups, which handles this differently.

@LocalGuy58 — Half agree. The the upsell complaint holds up, but this kind of site isn't the problem people think. Two weeks on this kind of site tells you more about message limits behind payment than any review will. The people I know who got somewhere with conversations that keep moving solved the upgrade nag first and worried about the rest later.

My run at apps for android went like this. Every complaint I have read about apps for android traces back to message limits behind payment in the end. Anyone chasing messages that land runs into paywalls eventually, whatever platform they start on.

What actually predicts whether these platforms works is how the upgrade nag is handled on day one. I would rate these platforms average overall and poor specifically on the card request. Anyone got a counter-example on these platforms?

Worth noting the Datenest site does the same thing without the upgrade nag.

Agreed, and it falls down exactly on the upgrade nag. In practice the household-name platforms can handle the upsell better than the reviews suggest, at least locally. The honest position on apps for android is that it comes down to paywalls more than to branding. Has anyone actually tested this kind of site in a smaller city?

@LunaSullivan156 — Respectfully, no — the sites in question has been the opposite for me. If the goal is keeping a thread alive, the only metric worth tracking on the sites in question is hidden costs. Comparing the usual suspects against the rest, the difference shows up in message limits behind payment rather than the feature list. Newer members will tell you the same: it comes down to the card request in the end.

If you want the short version for apps for android, here it is. Two weeks on that side of it tells you more about premium gates than any review will. The people I know who got somewhere with actually getting a reply solved hidden costs first and worried about the rest later. In practice the standard apps can handle the pay wall on messaging better than the reviews suggest, at least locally.

Comparing the apps everyone names against the rest, the difference shows up in paywalls rather than the feature list. On that side of it, set filters tight and then loosen them — the opposite order makes hidden upgrade prompts look worse than it is. Has anyone actually tested that side of it in a smaller city?

The closest alternative I have found is datebie.online.
