    Hi, good review. I just joined it yesterday. I think the most compatible tab has been replaced with the standouts tab. I prefer the sound of the former myself.
    As someone who is totally blind, VoiceOver, the built-in screen reader for the iPhone, works pretty well with it. There are still a few issues, but not many. I’m addicted to this app already.

    Thanks for the review. I have been using a clone of tinder and it really has not been helpful. It’s clear there are way too many guys and most girls don’t bother having even a description. Swiping might be easy but in the six months I’ve used it, I’ve landed three dates, most toward the beginning. If you are a minority it is easy to burn through everyone on the app as well. A slower pace might be better esp cause I don’t want hookups and that

    I feel like Hinge+ is probably worth more than Bumble Premium just cause the cost difference and you can actually comment first on Hinge. Had a few great matches on Bumble but they never messaged first so it seemed pointless. The best part about Bumble for me is you can use it on desktop pc but some the features are missing.

    • @d.n.3652
      @d.n.3652 Pƙed 5 měsĂ­ci

      @@irvingpl898 the dates were alright. No bad dates. I had 2 from hinge, 1 from bumble. But it’s kinda hard for us guys. Sometimes it’s hard to find a good girl. Women have so many guys to choose from. They gotta weed off all the pervs and shitty guys. So it’s tough for decent guys to get through. Some girls have this mentality of “why should I choose you? I have plenty of options”. Then there’s times where you get ghosted without any reason, even when you think it’s going good. It can be hard to get to know someone where there isn’t much time and everything is swipe swipe swipe. Half the time I feel like an ad, hoping someone will see it. Girls in general tend to be more picky than us guys. This is tenfold higher online. It’s hard to show your charm and personality through an app. I’ve stopped using dating apps. It’s kinda easier in person (in some ways). But I hope you have better luck. My advice; take good pictures, don’t be a creep, don’t be thirsty, be yourself, don’t be bland/boring, no politics, stay away from girls that use pronouns, stay away from girls that sound like they get offended over politics say a lot in your bio about yourself, stay away from woke girls, overall and don’t have high expectations. Go with the flow

    • @DudeHack
      @DudeHack  Pƙed 3 lety +6

      Definitely still give Hinge a try! Even if the majority of users are in their 20's, we are still talking about a user base of thousands! That means there are plenty of people that would be interested in you in your 40's, especially if you look like you're in your 30's ;) Plus, there may be a good portion of women within that age group that would be interested in a guy in their 40's. But with all that being said, if you are really keen to find the one to settle down with, you would probably be better off with harmony which has crazy success. Check out this article on it and maybe consider signing up: dude-hack.com/eharmony-review/ or better yet... try them both!
