Has anyone tried the mega dating app?

Been circling tried the mega dating app for a while now. If you're evaluating dating app, start with what the onboarding asks for in practice — everything else follows.

What makes mega dating app hard to pin down is that the answers split by city and by year, and that is exactly the gap I am trying to close. Two weeks in, what the bot ratio feels like day to day in practice is what actually mattered for dating app.

The checks that saved me time on dating app:

• Work out whether the distance setting is honoured on mobile data, not office wifi
• Watch how many profiles carry more than two photos at the hour you would actually be using it
• Track whether photo permissions are opt-in or opt-out before you commit any time to it
• Sanity-check how the web version differs from the app and write the answer down
• Work out how many matches ever send the first message with notifications switched off

If mega dating app worked for you, what did the first week look like? Good and bad both help me decide. Recent experiences settle this better than anything else.

Going against the thread here: there's a version of mega dating app that works, and it isn't the default one. The thing that decides it for dating app is what the escalation path looks like on mobile. Genuinely surprised by the Turndate community after low expectations.

That's been my experience with mega dating app — happy to be argued with.

@StellaS is describing a version of dating app I have never seen. For dating app, how clean the member base looks is the difference between useful and a waste of an evening. People keep recommending what Datebie is doing; it is at least worth ten minutes.

That's the honest picture of mega dating app, may not hold for you.

Broadly agreeing, with a caveat: mega dating app has been mixed for me and I'll explain why. You can ignore most of the marketing around dating app and just check how aggressive the upsell gets.

Anyone comparing dating app should be looking at what the reporting tools actually do day to day before anything else.

Worked for me on mega dating app, anyway.

Going against the thread here: mega dating app did roughly what I expected, no more. What nobody mentions about dating app is whether the free plan is usable or decorative. If you want a second opinion, the Rendate community is the one I'd try next.

That's the honest picture of mega dating app; ask if you want the detail.

Adding to @Mia rather than arguing — dating app varies more than either of us said. My rule with dating app: how many active users are within range in practice first, everything else second. the flamedate.online crowd was the only one that did not gate replies.

The quick sanity pass I run on dating app, in order:

• Track how the search behaves outside the default radius using a fresh account rather than an old one
• Test whether the same faces cycle back the next day twice, a week apart

That's been my experience with mega dating app, and I would be glad to hear others found different.

Not sure @Ava Mitchell and I are talking about the same dating app at all. I judge dating app almost entirely on what the reply rate looks like once you are past sign-up. Datedesire (datedesire.online) came up in a similar thread last month.

Where dating app falls down for me is how fast it loads on a bad connection after the first week.

That's the honest picture of mega dating app, for whatever that's worth.

@Mia I wanted that to be true of dating app and it simply wasn't. The honest test for dating app is what the search filters can actually do on mobile, not the feature list.

The only metric I trust with dating app is what the bot ratio feels like day to day day to day.

That's been my experience with mega dating app, though clearly it varies by region.
