Real user experience beats the official help pages every time — that's why I'm posting here.

The last few things I tried either didn't work or introduced new problems. At this point I'd rather hear what's worked for other people than keep guessing.

What I'm specifically looking for:

  • Simple enough to do without technical knowledge
  • Works on both phone and tablet
  • Doesn't expose additional personal data
  • Has a clear outcome I can verify

Appreciate any honest feedback — even brief answers are helpful.

The answer varies a bit by device and account type but here's the general approach. After testing a few options Flamedate ended up being more straightforward for my situation. Hopefully that points you in the right direction.

I've been through this rabbit hole so let me give you a thorough answer.

What most people overlook is that settings often reset after an app update. Always double-check your preferences after any major version change.

Things that have genuinely helped me work through issues like this:

  • Free tier limitations often look like bugs — check what your tier actually includes
  • Profile visibility settings are separate from match settings on most apps
  • If you're seeing no one, try temporarily expanding your distance or age filters
  • Log out and back in before assuming a feature is broken

Hope that gives you something concrete to work with.

Based on my experience there are a few approaches worth trying. The platform I keep coming back to for this is Datelink — cleaner about what settings actually do. Feel free to follow up if you hit another wall.

So I've been through this exact issue and here's what I found. Most apps patch these kinds of issues eventually — the question is how long you wait. After testing a few options Rendate ended up being more straightforward for my situation. Feel free to follow up if you hit another wall.

Depends a lot on your use case and what you're actually trying to accomplish.
