TL;DR
Specialized Apps
BiCupid is often mentioned as a dedicated platform for bisexual dating. It's the largest app specifically targeting bisexual and bi-curious individuals, offering features like forums and chat options to facilitate connections [2]. However, some users have noted that it can be expensive, as many features require payment
[4:1].
Feeld is another app frequently recommended for its inclusivity and wide variety of bisexual users. While some users appreciate its focus on the LGBTQ+ community, others find the app's format less user-friendly [4:2]
[4:7].
Mainstream Apps
For more general dating apps, Tinder, Bumble, and OkCupid are popular choices among bisexual users. These platforms allow you to set preferences for both same and different gender partners, making them versatile options [3:1]. Tinder, in particular, has a filter that can show people with your orientation, which might help in finding more compatible matches
[4:5].
Other Options
HER is an app primarily designed for queer women but is also used by bisexual individuals looking for same-gender relationships [3:1]. Additionally, Facebook Dating offers a feature to set preferences and search criteria, which could be useful for those seeking bisexual connections
[5:3].
Considerations
The effectiveness of these apps can vary significantly based on location and personal preferences. Some users emphasize the importance of being in a bi-friendly area to maximize the chances of finding compatible matches [4:4]. It's also worth noting that while some apps cater specifically to bisexual individuals, others offer broader LGBTQ+ communities where bisexual users can feel included.
In summary, while there isn't a one-size-fits-all solution, exploring a combination of specialized and mainstream apps can increase the likelihood of finding meaningful connections.
I think I want to open an account on a dating app, but I'm not so sure about it since I don't exactly know how they work and I'd rather take it as an option to create a relationship instead of other horny stuff... What's been your experience with these apps?
Tinder, Hinge, Bumble
DONT TOUCH GRINDR… it’s a cesspit
LOL... Ok I won't go into that cesspit, thanks for the warning How are hinge and bumble btw? I've never heard a word of them, probably they aren't that popular in my country
I’m in the US, and they would have worked pretty well for me if I wasn’t so goddamn picky 😂
Fyi: every app of every kind varies by location and across time. Generalizations abound and actual experiences can be outrageously different.
Yes, you can meet nice humans thru apps and, yes, you will have to patiently sort through some of the species’ odder examples.
If there was a perfect app that worked exactly right every time, would we bi guys be on reddit right now?
Wise words
​

Tinder is a mobile social app used for dating and one-night stands. In this application, according to the user’s Facebook and Spotify profiles, [1] both parties can only start chatting if they show interest in each other. [2][3][4] but it also contains some other functions, making the software also contain the role of social media. Tinder launched in 2012. In 2014, users’ daily ‘swipes’ on apps totaled about 1 billion.
​
OkCupid is free to join. When signing up you can pick any orientation you please: straight, gay, bisexual, lesbian, queer, asexual, questioning, pansexual, homoflexible and sapiosexual (or attraction to intelligence). If you’re looking for more than just a hook up—you’ll want to download this app now. Signing up takes two minutes. You can download OkCupid on iOS and Android. It welcomes both men and woman.
I don't think it sounds like an ad to be honest, and all three of those you can specify what you are looking for.
"Welcomes both men and women" - ground breaking stuff for a dating app.
Wondering if anyone has had success on a particular dating app as a bi individual? Would like to meet other bi folks but not a total requirement. It seems like most dating apps are geared toward gay or straight people but not bi (figures!).
Anyway, if you have any recs lmk!!
Bumble seems to work pretty well for both sides of the pond ✌🏻
Bi woman here. I've used Tinder, Bumble, Her, and OkCupid over the years. It really depends on what you're looking for, your gender, your location, etc
If you're looking for same-gender partners, apps like Her, Grindr, Scruff, etc are often a better bet because that's where many queers are. Her was quite good in my local area for women into women.
If you are looking for different gender partners, I did have a lot of luck with Tinder and Bumble more recently (met my current male partner on Bumble). I did reasonably well with women on Bumble, too.
Regional variations are also important. Some cities, everyone seems to be on Hinge. Others it's Tinder. Or Bumble. Some cities have a huge Scruff community but no one's on Grindr. Ask your local queer community where the fun is had.
The MOST IMPORTANT thing to consider is putting your bisexuality out in the open from the start. I get that closeted queers, people in Orange Trumpistan, rural hick land, and those who are afraid of others knowing their orientation for professional reasons may balk at this, and safety first.
I am in Canada, where folks are generally chill, and human rights are still going strong. I had "bi, monogamish" midway through my profile. Anyone who wasn't into bi women or people who like the odd sexual sidequest or pocket bae were welcome to swipe left. No surprises. No wasted time on biphobic lesbians or weirdly religious men. No one looking for strict monogamy. Just people who already knew my deal. It has worked out well.
Edit: Putting bi out there also acts as a siren call for other bi people! I swiped right on every bi guy I ever saw on Bumble, for instance, because I was stoked to meet other bi people. I found many bi women, too. I loved OkC because it had a setting for that. But that's not where the scene is where I live these days.
Thank you for this thoughtful response. Much appreciated!!
as a Bi dude im tired of getting matches and then when I say I'm bi most of them either unmatch or are just straight-up mean, on all my dating profiles i have it spelled out that i am Bi, and when its not i also have a picture of myself in front of a bi flag in my room ffs. the only people ive ever really matched with that didn't mind were mostly bi women, so that brings me to my question, is there any dating app that has more bi people in it? I know there is probably isn't one but it id rather ask and find out there isn't than not ask and there be one I just don't know about.
I've found Feeld has a large variety of bi people. Just not a big fan of the app personally.
Yeah, Feeld is alright but I get what you mean. I've had way better luck finding other bi folks on Laylooper. It's easily the best one I've used for that.
I was curious to try it, can I ask why aren't you a fan? I have no experience with dating apps
It's just more of a format thing for me. Also it makes it a bit harder to connect directly. You both have to like each other to be able to chat or "ping" someone but those are limited. I still engage with it but have had very little success. YMMV of course. Just my .02.
it depends on your area more than anything. i’d say hinge but if you don’t live in a bi friendly area than it won’t be the same for you
feeld is more lgbt friendly but again if there’s not a lot of out bi ppl in your area to begin with it won’t matter what app you’re on
I think that tinder has a show people with my orientation filter but I'm not sure. I found my bi partner on there
Has anyone tried Bindr? I’m new to this sub so please be kind if it’s already been discussed a lot.
I've tried Bicupid, but they want you to pay through the nose for every little feature. I think I just deactivated it. But if you are willing to pay... And of course there is always OKcupid too.
Hi! I have been looking for some apps or websites to meet (at least online) bisexual ppl, and start a real friendship, or even more. I have tried some apps like Grindr, bur it’s not what I am looking for. Thanks for your advice :)
I've been looking for the same thing. I have some bisexual friends always looking for more.
If you find something, just let me know 😉
Facebook dating (mobile app only) allows you to set preferences and search criteria.
Try Feeld.
Installed it! Looks great :) Thx !
This subreddit is the closest I’ve found to it, and not for a lack of looking
That’s good. I’ve talked to a few people here on Reddit, but after a few days, even hours, they will just ghost you 😬
Ive tried the free HER app but that was way too expensive for me. The free version is okay youll still get to set preferences and see others profile, BOO is another one, I liked that one a bit more because it had different ill call them sub reddits they call universes I dont know if there is anything exclusive to bi though
Or a hookup app even. There are many experiences I’d like to have as bisexual male, but I have no idea how to even find them.
EDIT: damn, y’all, 2000+ likes? I did not expect this to take off like it has. There have been some good suggestions, good points, and good vibes on this post. Thank y’all for being such a great community!
P.S. thanks for the award!
BiCupid is a bi dating and hook-up app. Of course theres lots of couples looking for a 3rd. But there's some singles too, like me. 😁
Pros- lots of bisexuals
Cons- have to pay to send messages/ see who likes you. :( also, too many couples looking for a 3rd... giving me and my boo too much competition.
Pretty much all the apps require payment at some point b4 you can meet-up. I know it sucks but they're running a business and gotta cover costs.
As far as competition goes, be yourselves. Don't copy the same old tired pickup lines like "Hi", "Hey" and "What's up". Fill out the profile completely, include (lots of) pictures. Respond when someone (that is paying) sends a msg.
The real solution is to make a dating app for couples looking for a third so they stop flooding the dating app we do have
I feel like this is trying to excize a portion of the community and is sort of demonizing the ethical non-monogamous bi people out there. If a straight person said, "I wish there was a gay dating app so they would stop flooding my app", we would be justifiably annoyed. Other people wanting something you are not interested in yourself does not mean they should be ridiculed or segregated. Just don't swipe right on those people, just like you would with anyone else you are not interested in. That is the whole point of the system.
Non monogamous bi people shouldn’t be demonized, but I get what that person is talking about. A lot of couples looking for a third actively go after single wlw women who have no interest in couples, and often go about it in deceptive or predatory ways. Like matching with and talking to women by pretending to be a single woman and not mentioning her boyfriend until later on.
Straight people having an issue with people using the same dating apps to look for same sex relations is not an accurate comparison because most dating apps allow you to filter to only see the gender(s) you’re interested in so a heterosexual person generally wouldn’t even receive messages from the same same sex and single lgbt people generally aren’t all over dating apps trying to pursue people who aren’t interested in them.
Not that all couples looking for a third cause problems, but a certain percentage of said couples cause issues/annoyances towards people who have no interest in dating couples in the first place so I can understand the wish for couples to just have their own dating app so they stop bothering people who aren’t interested in couples.
>If a straight person said, "I wish there was a gay dating app so they would stop flooding my app", we would be justifiably annoyed.
Yea, but those two things aren't really equivalent, most dating apps are set up so that you'll never see someone who isn't the gender your looking for, and looking for the gender you are. A straight man will never see a gay or bisexual man or a lesbian on a dating app. He'll only see women who are looking for men, so he wouldn't really be in a position to complain about gay people "flooding" dating apps because he'll never see them. On the other hand there are no filters for removing couples looking for a third on most dating apps, at least the ones I used. I'm not saying they should be kicked off entirely, but there should be the option to filter them out, in the same way that we can filter people out based on gender and sexual orientation.
I’d equate it more to being on tinder (for example) being a WLW. And then a bunch of men pop up because they identified as a woman in the setup process. Not because they ACTUALLY identify that way, but in order to wide. Their market reach. They pop up CONSTANTLY for me even tho I have it set to look just for women. Those types of creeps are like the women out there who are also looking for other women and then pounce on you with the “so wanna play with me and my hubby?” NO CREEP! Get out of my DMs!
It’s more about the predatory nature we have come to expect from the unicorn hunters than the people who choose to live this lifestyle
Edit for clarity after reread.
I’d just be happy with a bisexual friend app.
I get the feeling the app would just turn out weird. Creepy people asking for threesomes, people having a bi fetish etc
Same, it’s crazy that you would think liking multiple sexes would make life easier, but it makes it so much harder
The Bi Agenda™️
I'm sure this has been asked before, but here it goes. So I've been single for almost 3 years now. Up until a little over a year ago, I had tried meeting men and women on Tinder and Facebook dating with no real results. So I stopped trying all together. Now I'm ready to dip my feet back into the dating pool so I thought I would ask. What, in your opinion, would be the best app or site to find bi men bi friendly women?
No app is worth it.
Frankly the only demographic you on them is a bunch of terminally problematic individuals with unhealed traumas.
Trust me find yourself some hobbies that makes for outings so that you make friends in queer circles then love will find while you were just minding your own business.
Hinge? Following
Yeah, I'm interested too. Always wondered about Adam4Adam
I’ve met some solid gents on Adam. Seems to have increase tho in scam profiles
Sniffies. I tried them all: Bumble, Growlr, Grindr, OKCupid, Hinge, Feeld, Archer, Scruff, Romeo, Tinder, A4A, POF, Badoo, Facebook Dating… and I have had the most luck on Sniffies, followed by Scruff, and then Growlr.
Thank you for this list.
Adam4adam was ok.
Silver Daddies
Okcupid has pretty good filters now to just find lgbt peeps. Taimi is also decent.
Avoid tinder.
Well back when I used dating apps, Hinge is for wanting to find a serious relationship. Don't get me wrong, there were guys on Hinge who were just looking to get their dick wet, but Hinge is better for serious relationships. Bumble is cool too. Idc what anyone says, tinder ain't a dating app, it's a hookup app
None of them
Feeld.
Technically, it started as an app for couples to meet singles, but it's morphed into a really decent place to meet other queer folks.
I'm curious as to what's the best dating app for other bisexuals. I've tried tinder, hinge, bumble.. no luck with finding women who are attracted to me and vice versa.
It kind of depends on your gender - if you're a woman looking for women I suggest changing your settings to 'women only'. If you're a bi man looking for bi women specifically, all I can say is to state that on your profile and maybe try feeld.
There are not really any bi4bi apps, but it would be a good idea to see if there are any singles/bi groups in your area?
Finding myself having this issue as a bicurious cisfemale
The "bicurious" bit might be your issue. Lots of folks will swipe left on that because they aren't interested in being an experiment if they're seriously looking for someone to date. Or investing the effort to show someone the ropes who might not actually end up being interested.
You might be better off trying the sexy party or club scene, or a swinger's event if you have a partner or a friend to go with. Low stakes, low investment, lots more people who are just there for a bit of no-strings-attached fun or experimentation.
I 100% ignore any guy who labels himself as heteroflexible or bicurious on apps because in my experience the best majority are just looking for a threesome, but not one where they would actually play with the guy. I'm sure there are some people using the label honestly but unfortunately they're drowned out by people misusing it
Unfortunately where I'm located we don't have those types of outings/events and i also am not out to anyone and live with family so from the sounds of it plus what I've already been trying it sounds like I'm gonna have to just bury all this until my grave
SDC comes to mind for that
Feeld has worked well for me
You could try feeld
Feeld is great, seconded
