  1. Hello Julie. I wanted to tell you at the 140 but I never got around to it – personally the OkCupid app is the best dating app of them all!

    It’s ad free – has 20-40,000 users on it, has a great interface, built in chat, and is FREE to use it’s features.

    I have tried other apps and nothing compares. I’ve met A LOT of women through OKC and this app just makes it better because I can meet them when I am out.

  2. Thank you Ray. I am a big fan of OkCupid. Appreciate you sharing. Jonas, I will check out Date or Hate.

  3. It’s surprising to not see Crush or Flush on the list. It doesn’t even require an app to be viewed nicely.

  4. Thank you for the suggestion Randy. The original list only had 10 mobile dating apps listed. We will be releasing our second Top 10 Mobile Dating Apps in the very near future.

  5. We would love for you to review our new android app coming soon from https://www.accentudate.com The app will work in conjunction with our free online dating site and allow members to locate other users via GPS. All 100% free with no hidden fees or subscriptions.

    Great site btw,
    -Paul

  6. Great entry. I think Skout is one of the best apps but I’d never tried Are You Interested or Flirtomatic.

  7. Have you heard of GuySpy?

    Is the newest gay dating app for smart phones and you can even use it in your computer. You can meet guys in your area faster and easier.

    Comes with great features like Cruise & Buzz, but what I like the most is that allows you to share video. Pretty addicktive. (If you know what I mean)

    Check it out https://www.guyspy.com
