Seattle Dating

Love the idea of an app based in Seattle. Curious to see what age demographic this will be most popular in. App looks great, color, font and most elements are aesthetically pleasing. I do think that the app is a bit cluttered; initially kind of confusing to work with. Perhaps a beginning tutorial would help with any kind of confusion and would help preface what the app offers. I feel that preferences and the option of editing your profile should be grouped together in order to limit the number of side tabs, just feels like there are too many as I found myself clicking from here to there and here back again. Seemed tedious! I like how there are days of the week to choose for availability, it’s rather unique and I’ve never seen that on another dating app before. I also liked how I could click specific areas in the PNW and decide on where exactly I’d like to meet with someone. Keep up the work!!

I like the concept of the app, and saw some interesting people. There was one person that caught my attention and meant to swipe right, but accidentally swiped left and there is no way to go back... I would wish that to be a feature, a go back button. Another thing that I think would be beneficial is a reset button, where you could go back through the people one already swipe left on in case one changed their mind or want to correct a mistake. Just something to consider.

I really liked the concept of this app, the use of availability and preference setting made it really compelling. Unfortunately the overall UX for updating your settings can be cumbersome and not friendly. This happens when my trial expired and I kept getting reminded about my preferences as I was trying to zoom in enough to maybe be able to unselect a zone. A much better experience would be to not have such specific zone selections, allowing it to be more of a “in Seattle” or “in Bellevue” selector. Then let premium be hyper specific. Current implementation really lowers the app down and makes it super annoying to move between both options.

I love the idea of the app and was really excited when setting up my profile but once I selected my preferences it said there was nobody for me. My preferences were 25-35, Christian, non smoker, over 6ft. I selected a lot of areas of Seattle so I don’t think my preferences were that specific...seems like this is not for my demographic at all. The guys who were swiping on me were not Christians and not at all anywhere near my age...seems to be a lot of 40+ men that are not ascetically pleasing to me and a lot look really creepy. I deleted my account and won’t be returning. I would love the app if it was more for my age (27).

I LOVE that I can select the neighborhoods I prefer to meet up in. Unlike a setting a radius, which results in wasting time swiping on people in areas I don't want to date in (sorry, Bainbridge Island ;), I think this neighborhood selection tool does a better job of streamlining the dating process. The app also just looks sexy... really well designed. Makes the other apps look clunky and dated (ha) by comparison. Really nice app!
