What Redditors are Saying

Best Dating Apps for Lesbians

TL;DR

  • HER is often mentioned as the best app specifically aimed at lesbians, despite some technical issues [5:1].
  • Bumble and Tinder are popular choices for meeting people, though experiences can vary widely [4:4][5:3].

HER App

HER is frequently cited as a top choice for lesbian dating. It is one of the few apps that cater specifically to queer women, although users have noted it can be glitchy and includes individuals with various orientations [4:1][5:1]. Despite these issues, some users have found meaningful connections on HER, including long-term relationships [3:3].

Bumble and Tinder

Both Bumble and Tinder are popular among lesbians, but they come with their own set of challenges. Bumble offers a good user experience, and some users have found success in forming relationships through the app [2:4][5:3]. However, Tinder has been criticized for being overloaded with couples seeking third partners, which can be frustrating for those looking for genuine connections [4:5]. Nonetheless, Tinder remains a viable option for meeting attractive and interesting people [5:5].

Hinge and OkCupid

Hinge and OkCupid are also recommended by users who have had success finding partners on these platforms [1:1][2:5]. Hinge is praised for having fewer couple profiles compared to Tinder, making it a potentially better option for those seeking serious relationships [4:5].

Location-Based Features

For those interested in changing their search location, paying for premium features on apps like Tinder or Bumble might be necessary [5]. This can be particularly useful if you're planning to move or travel and want to meet people in different cities.

Additional Considerations

While dating apps can be effective, some users suggest exploring queer events and spaces as an alternative way to meet potential partners [2:3]. This approach may offer more direct interactions and reduce the ambiguity often associated with online dating.

I find HER to be a confusing mess and Tinder just gets me matches with straight women looking for a third to add to their boyfriend's fantasy .... sigh

Over the years I have met one girlfriend through mutual friends, one on OkCupid, one on Lex, and two (including my current long term partner) on Hinge. For hookups, I had the best luck on Lex and Tinder. Good luck!!

Her is good, at least in my area. Tinder is fine but recently for some reason I started getting a lot of people million miles away from me (I'm not paying for any features, and my radius is set for 30 miles). But I'm considering going to more queer spaces and events, to support our community more

Controversial opinion here 👏🏻 personally I think dating apps aren’t the move for dating. I would say going to queer events and putting yourself out there will give you a better chance of catching someone’s intention in person

Silvinyy · 6 months ago

Might be, but not every place has ‘queer events’ nearby nor would you necessarily be into the demographic there (and no guarantee that there would even be lesbians there). Dating apps are often is often the easiest way to determine whether someone is into women. No ambiguity about intent.

I've found people through Bumble, Tinder, Lex, OkCupid and Her. Some people have good luck with Hinge and Coffee Meets Bagel as well. I don't think there is any one specific app that is best because it really varies depending on your location. And there are no apps that are really lesbian-specific. The closest thing is Her but you'll find all sorts of people of different orientations and gender identities on there.

Best dating app for lesbians?

Posted by Demand_Murky · in r/LesbianActually · 3 years ago

I’m trying to navigate which apps are best for meeting lesbians. Is it Hinge? tinder? Bumble? I am gonna take the plunge and pay for the premium as I’m not getting younger and want to meet people ASAP.

I also want the chance to change which city I’m searching in. Thoughts?

I don’t know what app is best. So far I’ve only really tried Facebook, and it’s been weird. You can put in that you only like women and are only looking locally, but Facebook will try to match you with a man from the opposite side of the state.

Lex!! The women on there are more active and more willing to actually have a conversation. There's also some real horndogs that are constantly dtf if that's your vibe lol.

For context, I've gotten zero dates, ever, in my life, from traditional swipe based dating apps. In the last month I've had dates with like five different women on Lex. Tbf, most of them didn't go anywhere after the first date, but that's dating, it's a numbers game. But even though most connections aren't going anywhere it's still so refreshing to actually make connections!

Not particularly. It felt especially bot heavy compared to some of the others.

Most dating apps are actually terrible for finding dates now. Tinder, Plenty of Fish, Bumble, Tami, Her, OkCupid, Match...They're designed to keep you engaged on the platform, not to find you love.

i’m late but i agree! fb dating has been the most helpful for me although there are a lot of people looking for thirds, you’re more than likely to match with a girl that actually likes girls vs a straight girl looking for new friends.

I’ve tried a bunch but lately been using Get-Matched when I’m more in the mood for quick hookups or casual dating. It’s definitely more upfront and active, which I actually appreciated since it cuts through a lot of the usual app fatigue.

Maybe try using HER or Bumble. For me, it’s been a bit of a struggle to find anyone who is interested enough to hold a conversation. But I had a good experience with one person which unfortunately couldn’t work out as I realized I wasn’t in the right headspace to date.

Best dating apps for lesbians

Key Considerations for Choosing Dating Apps for Lesbians:

  1. User Base: Look for apps with a large and active user base specifically for LGBTQ+ individuals, as this increases your chances of finding compatible matches.

  2. Features: Consider what features are important to you, such as messaging options, profile customization, and safety features like photo verification.

  3. Inclusivity: Ensure the app is inclusive and welcoming to all identities within the lesbian community, including bisexual, queer, and non-binary individuals.

  4. Reputation: Research user reviews and testimonials to gauge the app's reputation and effectiveness in fostering genuine connections.

  5. Cost: Some apps are free, while others offer premium features for a fee. Determine what fits your budget and whether the paid features are worth it.

Top Recommendations:

  1. HER: A popular app designed specifically for LGBTQ+ women, non-binary, and trans people. It offers social networking features, events, and a friendly community atmosphere.

  2. OkCupid: Known for its inclusive approach, OkCupid allows users to identify as LGBTQ+ and offers extensive profile questions to match users based on compatibility.

  3. Tinder: While not exclusively for lesbians, Tinder has a large user base and allows users to specify their sexual orientation. Its swipe feature is user-friendly and widely recognized.

  4. Bumble: Bumble empowers women to make the first move. It has a dedicated section for LGBTQ+ users, making it a safe space for women seeking women.

  5. Lesly: A newer app focused solely on lesbian dating, Lesly aims to create a safe and supportive environment for women to connect.

Recommendation: If you're looking for a community-oriented experience, HER is highly recommended due to its focus on LGBTQ+ women and social networking features. For a more traditional dating app experience with a large user base, OkCupid is an excellent choice for its inclusivity and compatibility matching.
