Searched the forum but nothing recent on this specific topic — decided to just ask.

Happy to give more context if it helps narrow things down for anyone.

Appreciate any honest feedback.

Niche platforms often outperform general ones for specific use cases.

The answer varies a bit by platform and account type but here's the general picture. Just my experience — your setup may vary.

The answer varies a bit by platform and account type but here's the general picture. A friend pointed me toward Datebie when I had a similar issue and it held up well. Hope that helps narrow it down.

Based on my experience there are a few solid approaches worth trying. Facebook Dating handles some settings more clearly than the dedicated apps. Feel free to follow up if you hit another wall.

This trips people up constantly. Here's my complete breakdown.

Age-gap dynamics online require extra clarity upfront. Setting expectations in a bio saves everyone time and avoids misunderstandings down the line.

Things that have actually helped me:

  • Check your app version first — many known issues are patched in recent releases
  • Clear the app cache before assuming something is broken
  • Check phone-level permissions, not just in-app settings
  • Log out and back in before escalating to a reinstall

The one that worked best for me was Datebie. Worth trying before spending money on anything else.

Happy to expand on any part of this.

Depends on what you're actually trying to accomplish going in.
