OkCupid review

OkCupid matches people on their answers to a long bank of questions, and each profile shows a personalized match percentage, which makes it easy to see where you agree before you message. The app is built for inclusive dating: you can choose from more than 60 gender identities and sexual orientations and show your pronouns. It works for casual dating, serious relationships or new friends, and you state which you want. The free version covers profiles, matching and messaging. Premium lets you see who likes you without liking them first, send unlimited likes and set Dealbreakers so the app only shows people who fit your must-haves. The US App Store lists OkCupid Premium from $7.99, the lowest entry price of the general-audience apps on this list, plus an A-List tier and boosts. The main cost is time, since the match percentage only works well after you answer a good number of questions. It holds a 4.3 rating from about 290,000 App Store ratings.
