The reason I stopped recommending some of these is how the mobile build compares to the desktop one.
Gave the app a fair run over 2 weeks and kept coming back to whether people reply or just collect matches.
Given how whether the free version is a demo or a product behaves, I would only recommend that one to someone with patience.
I would judge popular free dating apps in Africa on how much data leaves the app rather than on the feature list.
Once I fixed my filters, whether bans stick or get walked back stopped being the bottleneck on the service.
The closest alternative I found was Souldate for this exact use case.
