So far, there are quite a few paywalls. Judging by the UI, it feels like this app is still in its early stages — a space being built for individuals looking for like-minded, culture-driven connections. It’s definitely on its way to becoming something great, but it still has some growing to do.My biggest issue (and honestly, it’s app-breaking) is that I can’t accurately match with people near me. The location filter is completely greyed out, showing a prompt that says “Enable Location in Settings.” My location is already turned on, so I’m not sure why I can’t adjust that filter. It’s frustrating — especially since you’re asked to pay for a feature that doesn’t seem to function as intended.I understand it’s a niche platform that will improve with community support, so I’m not angry, just disappointed. For reference, I’m using an iOS device running the latest iOS 26 update — perhaps that’s part of the issue?

Developers Definitely Botted their 5 Stars (Update)
LordBobRoss
You can easily tell that the developers botted five star reviews because there’s no way that this app is a 4.6 out of 5 when you can see, the majority of comments are negative on this app. The developers are forcing you to pay to get into this site before you can even see any of it. (Yes that’s right when making your account at the very end, it gives you the payment options and there’s none where you can skip that like normal dating apps this one you’re FORCED TO PAY TO ENTER)Update since you responded and I know you’ll read this developers here’s a update to your response…Here’s some advice to your botting to make it not obvious go look at other dating apps and you’ll see they all have good and bad reviews on them it’s because they’re legit. Reason why people are gonna put good reviews on the app is because they want more people to come in to get more people into the app to possibly find the right partner. What you guys did was just get a bunch of bots to give it a five star review no comments while 99% of your commented reviews are all negative it’s very easy to tell on apps. To your first comment about it being no less than a meal It’s such a terrible response and very unprofessional. I will say this is it affordable? Yes, but people shouldn’t be forced to spend something that they don’t know what they’re getting into that is the dumbest thing to do and your response was probably the worst response I’ve ever seen a developer say, which I’m assuming it’s one guy making this scam app.

Hi. Accusing us of fake rating without even using the app is not only false, it’s harmful. This app has been built with care, long hours, and real users who value what we’ve created. The paywall exists for some, to protect the core community from spam and bad actors. If you chose not to continue, that’s your decision, but please don’t undermine honest work with unfounded claims.To all the alternative souls who came here looking for something deeper—we built this space for you. We encourage you to think for yourself. If it resonates, we welcome you. Sincerely, the DarkHeart Team 🖤

I ran into the pay wall most commenters mention, I saw A dev response saying their are free features? How do you acttually acess that? Their is now button to move forward without paying and given the current ecinomic climate across many countrys it removes acessability. If your going to force pay set the app price not the pay wall that caused distrust amungst users and discurages them from trying

Access to DarkHeart requires payment for some users at this stage, which helps us maintain and grow the platform. We’re experimenting with business models to offer the best possible experience for all users.
Probably not worth it
Flumgod
You have to pay atleast 9$ to even use the app and it doesn’t tell you until after your account has been set up basically. While loading in it said 53 other people around me but in all honesty it’s probably like the rest of these small dating apps you’re just going to find dudes, scam accounts and dead profiles but once again didn’t decide to pay to play so can’t tell you what it would have actually been like if I got through that last screen. Overall probably not worth it just go download tinder or hinge those apps have an algorithm sooner or later you will get goth women. Honestly going onto instagram and doing goth girls or going out in public to goth events would probably work in your favor better.
Developer Response
Hi. We’ve noticed some concerns about spam accounts, but this review comes from someone who didn’t explore the app fully. We take spam and scams seriously—that’s why a paywall exists for some users, to keep the community safe and genuine. Pricing scales down the longer you commit. Less than $2/week on the yearly plan. We encourage giving the app a fair try before leaving a negative review. Our goal is a safe and sustainable space. 🖤
New: Better account status handling and smoother settings navigation, including improved application flow access. Plus, bug fixes and performance improvements.
