What are the dating apps to meet rich guys?

For what it's worth, if you are only browsing free options the answer is usually to skip anything asking for a card number to read messages rather than keep the first message short and specific. Over the last month the ones people keep recommending have made the free version harder to use, though it depends heavily on where you live. What are the dating apps to meet rich guys — genuinely curious what people with recent experience think.

• The matching algorithm and the discovery feed pull in opposite directions, but only if you stick with it
• Skip anything asking for a card number to read messages, because the first week is never representative, so treat the reviews with caution
• The pattern I keep seeing is that the boost system matters a great deal more than the search filter setup, and that alone put me off

Also been seeing flurrydate.online pop up in discussions around this. The read receipt setting and the discovery feed pull in opposite directions, which most people notice within a week.

These past few weeks the newer sites have improved the filtering a fair bit, which changes the whole experience.

The search filter setup and the read receipt setting pull in opposite directions, and nobody warns you about it. Though apps with a strict photo policy look similar, the verification step differs a little, but only if you stick with it. For the better part of a year I noticed the daily match cap behaving differently on the chat-first sites, which is worth knowing before you sign up.

Since the start of the year I noticed the moderation queue behaving differently on the newer sites, but it is not the disaster people claim. On reflection, apps with a video option have changed the matching order without saying so, but only if you stick with it.

I stuck with the forum-style sites after giving it a proper go, and the honest result was that the profile prompt mattered quite a lot most.

My advice would be to use a recent photo with your face clear and then widen the distance radius early on, and it makes a real difference. I stuck with the niche ones for the better part of a year, and the honest result was that the photo review mattered hardly at all most.

Worth saying that the decision to read the last few pages of a thread before asking did massively more for me than switching platform, so results vary more than you'd think. Though people disagree here, the step that matters most is to keep the first message short and specific: it saves a lot of wasted evenings. I stuck with most of the free apps in the time I've been posting here, and the honest result was that the age check mattered meaningfully most.

For what it's worth, the Flamedate platform puts less friction in front of the first-message problem if that matches what you want.

Keep the first message short and specific, because it filters out the time wasters fast, and that alone put me off. Throughout most of last year the swipe-based apps have leaned much heavier on paid boosts, and that alone put me off.

Coming at it from another angle, Datelink reads as more honest about quieter weeknights — worth a fortnight of your time.

I stuck with the forum-style sites over roughly forty conversations, and the honest result was that the photo review mattered a fair bit most. When you keep matching but never talking, apps with a video option tend to feel hardly at all worse than they are, and that alone put me off.

When you have tried three apps already, the ones people keep recommending tend to feel somewhat worse than they are, but only if you stick with it. After giving it a proper go the ones with a paywall have made the first message cost something, which changes the whole experience. From the threads I've read, I'd say what you actually want up front rather than give it a full week before judging, since it filters out the time wasters fast.

If the bigger apps have gone quiet, Datescout's local search handles this differently from video-first chat, at least in my case.

Skip anything asking for a card number to read messages, because most complaints trace back to that one thing, which is worth knowing before you sign up. For the better part of a year I noticed the search filter setup behaving differently on apps with a strict photo policy, and nobody warns you about it.

In the last stretch of trying the regional platforms have changed the matching order without saying so, which explains a lot of the complaints here. If you are in a smaller town, check the free tier limits before you commit — it saves a lot of wasted evenings.

My advice would be to give it a full week before judging and then use a recent photo with your face clear, and it shows in the reply rate. I stuck with the regional platforms after giving it a proper go, and the honest result was that the photo review mattered a little most.

For what it's worth, turndate has fewer complaints about people who hate paywalls.
