I dated someone for 5 months on this app and we loved each other. Met her in April of this year (2025). Her parents basically tore us apart by forcing her to break up and she had been manipulated her whole life and didn’t know how to stand her ground. She was wonderful though, and has so much potential. That’s a whole other story, but the app matches you with honest people for the most part, it’s just that there is not a lot of people on it… Well… not alot that are online regularly… Because what good is it if you are swiping on inactive profiles? Which isn’t the app’s fault, it’s still growing and trying to get more people. I think price is fair enough, although I would be disappointed if they raised it any further. It is fine where it is to enable them to provide good security and keep scammers and bots off. And it does have good Christian foundations. I like how it functions. It just needs more people, and so overall I am vouching for this app because besides this and Holy (formerly United Young) this is the only honest dating app, and Christian based, that I have found in 3 years of using and trying different dating apps. Hinge was great until they banned me and other people for no reason and won’t accept appeals. How logical is that for marketing? And Hinge’s cost increased where it wasn’t worth it anymore. So Hinge went in the dumper lol. I recommend this app and Holy. You just have to be patient. Even if you get matches, don’t guarentee they are the one for you. But be patient. The app is still growing and if they keep things the same, price wise and functionality, it has the potential of being best Christian dating app among all the thousands of other apps. I have been happy with it so far. I hope the developers that read this review take it to heart and avoid letting money go to their head and ruining a good thing like all the other dating apps… This is a worthwhile app, give it a try, and be patient.

Let me start off by saying that Ark is not a scam unlike all the other dating apps or websites I’ve ever used. I’ll start off by saying what I liked about this app which is a first for me. I was actually impressed that it verifies that you’re a not a scammer. Before your profile becomes visible, they make you take a picture of yourself holding a certain pose and then it takes about two days to verify. This practically guarantees that every person is real and not creating a fake profile with fake pictures. Also, it doesn’t lie in its advertising. The Golden letters tell people that you like them so they don’t have to waste time swiping in order to find you. There were a few times when I sent a golden letter and I got a response in a day or two. Unfortunately, that doesn’t guarantee everyone will respond to your message. The app is completely free. It doesn’t force you to spend money, but you can choose to spend money to get more golden letters. The nice thing is you automatically get a few golden letters every few days for free . There don’t seem to be a lot of people who use this app. After swiping on about a dozen people, the app had no choice put to search neighboring states, and sometimes Canada. Ironically, every person I tried to have a conversation eventually ghosted me for no reason. I always try to be respectful and give sweet messages, but it didn’t matter. The app doesn’t force you to fill out your profile completely. There were so many times when I saw a profile that had one or two photos and no information. If you use this app, you better pray that you find someone within your living willing to date you because there will not be a lot to look at. I’ve used the app for about a month and almost all the profiles I see are in neighboring states or Canada. I’m still going to keep using it because it free but it’s still far from perfect.

I have had like one or two matches on this app. And most of the matches I get are people out of the country. Blind dating feature is cool. But the people using it are super picky. Blind dating shouldn’t have to be “optional” then it wouldnt be blind dating. you get on and should match with someone you should be forced to talk to them without the option of leaving. Thats not blind dating thats pickiness. Never judge a book by its cover! And then the swipe to match ratio is incredibly off. I have swiped on 100+ people 0 of them liked me back. So then the conclusion on this app is that it becomes a glorified slot machine! you pay to play the slots! (Premium tier) you win a relationship that could last less than a month. The app overall like yea its good. And thats the problem at the free tier you get a good dating app but zero interactions. but its not worth seeking someone on when well theres no one your hollering into the void on this app. The app at that point loses its purpose just using the free tier. I’m positive it boosts you like crazy if you buy the premium and Im sorry that is such a scummy practice! Even for something marketed towards christians. Profiting off of this stuff is not christ like. It should be illegal.

I just signed up, paid and set up my profile. I through I made plenty of preference. Age range is 45-57, height 5.9’-6.4’, gym several times a week, church regularly, GLOBAL search and guess what. Not matches under these filters. Im 49. I really prefer to meet someone close to my age and not old or too young and the app keeps asking me to go younger and older than 61 or clear my filters to see matches. Two guys came up first, one was 5.5… and the other one disappeared. I’m guessing the second one was not a real one perhaps a show off to create a good first experience? Coz it disappeared. HM. So far, no matches even with being as flexible as I would. About 6hr after I opened my account, my filters got auto cleared. Then I saw these matches and interested parties, but non of them measured up to my settings. Then I noticed that my preference filters were cleared! Thats not good. I’ll test it for a few days and decide if I like it.After a few days, same. Zero man of my caliber shows up.
