OkCupid Dating: Date Singles

Dating built around more than photos

OkCupid Dating: Date Singles is a dating app for people who want to compare interests, opinions, identity and relationship goals before starting a conversation. Profiles give users room to explain themselves, while a question-based matching system helps show where two people may agree or differ. It suits singles who prefer a more detailed profile experience over a purely swipe-led feed.

How matching works

The app uses answers to personality, lifestyle and values questions to create compatibility percentages between users. Those comparisons can make it easier to spot shared priorities, or identify important disagreements early. Users can also present information about their hobbies, views and preferred relationship setup, giving potential matches more context than a photo alone.

• Answer questions to build a more informative match profile.
• Review compatibility scores when considering other users.
• Use profile details, interests and written answers as conversation starters.
• Choose from a broad range of gender identities and sexual orientations.

Who may find it useful

OkCupid is a reasonable fit for singles looking for connections based on compatibility, communication and shared values. The longer profile format may appeal to people who want to read about a match before deciding whether to like or message them. It can also be useful for users who want identity and relationship preferences represented more precisely than a basic dating profile allows.

At a glance

The app is published by okcupid.com and listed in the Dating category. It has a rating of about 3.4 out of 5 from more than 669,000 reviews, with 10,000,000+ installs. That places it among the larger dating apps, while the rating suggests that user experiences vary. Its main distinction is the emphasis on questions, written profiles and compatibility data.
