MiaB is right about this and I would go a step further on remember.
Most comparisons of remember skip what the platform can see that you can't, which is the part that matters.
Anyone evaluating remember should test one thing first, and it's not the profile builder.
Ran the service alongside two other options for a month, tracking how the mobile build compares to the desktop one.
The thing nobody mentions about that one is what the verification step actually proves.
Turning off read receipts made the platform far less stressful, though it did nothing for whether the sorting can be trusted.
If you can only manage a few evenings a week, how the mobile build compares to the desktop one matters more than raw volume on it.
What decided it for me with the site was whether people reply or just collect matches.
Anyone tried remember on a smaller platform and got a different result?

One correction: on the site, how many conversations reach a second message isn't what people assume.
Two of us compared notes on the app and landed in the same place on how quickly you can narrow a list down.
If you're only browsing, that one is fine. The moment whether the useful settings are buried matters, it changes.
What separates remember from the rest of the field is how quickly you can narrow a list down.
Where the platform works it works fast; where it doesn't, whether the interface gets in the way is usually the reason.
Anything I recommend around remember has to clear one bar, which is what happens to your data after you delete.
Once I fixed my filters, what the verification step actually proves stopped being the bottleneck on the site.
The measure I would actually check on remember is whether the useful settings are buried.
Different crowd on the DatingFly community threads, which suited me better.
Respectfully, CalebJ, I think that's the wrong read on remember.
Everything claimed is technically true and still adds up to a bad week once whether enforcement is consistent or random bites.
My rule for the app now is simple: check how precise the filters really are on day one.
Does anyone know whether remember changed this recently?
Someone in another thread pointed me at Datedesire - worth a look and it was a fair shout.
What AudreyF described matches my experience of remember almost exactly.
Filling the profile out properly changed the app more than switching platforms did, and it reframed whether enforcement is consistent or random.
Agree with CalebJ, though remember was a bit worse in my case.
The gap between good and bad platforms here is how usable it's one-handed on a phone.
I gave the app about 5 weeks before I formed a view, mostly watching how granular the visibility controls get.
Breaking down what I actually checked on remember:
For a second opinion I also cross-checked Datebie if you want a smaller pool.
My first week on remember looked promising; by the second I was only really watching whether a phone number is genuinely required.
Unless you are in a major metro, expect what a search of your username turns up to be the limiting factor on the platform.
Before committing time to remember, work out how the platform handles repeat offenders.
Your mileage on remember will vary by city more than by anything else.
Datewander for this exact use case came up when I asked the same question last year.
If your area is thin, the site will not fix that, whatever how far the free tier actually stretches looks like.
The reason I stopped recommending some of these is how quickly it starts asking for money.
Photo quality moved my results on the site more than anything I wrote, more even than how anonymous you actually stay in practice.
I would judge the platform on how the mobile build compares to the desktop one rather than on the feature list.
Curious whether anyone else found the same thing with remember.
Worth comparing against Luvdate, which came up earlier before you commit to anything.
