For years I was always using the mainstream apps like tinder and hinge. When I realized the users on there were practically the entire population I switched to Raya so it was members only, but their users sucked too. When I saw a cuffed ad I gave it a shot with low expectations but it impressed me above and beyond. They have the members only system which cuts down from the bots and everything. On top of that, I've never gone on more dates from a dating app before. The way their system works where you can only match with one person at a time actually pushes you to go on a date which I love. I have also been to one of the events that they've held and it was such a fun night, I was able to rsvp on the app. The team is also great, couple months ago I had a glitch with my profile and reached out to their support for help. They got back to me in less than and hour and fixed immediately. Truly the best idea I've had to save my dating life was cuffed, going on a 6th date with my match tomorrow!!

Absolutely love love love the concept of one match at a time. All the mainstream dating apps can feel so overwhelming with so many matches. I’ve spent so many hours scrolling on hinge and tinder trying to find a guy that’s my type and looking for more than the hookup culture that those apps promote. Cuffed is filled with attractive men all looking for actual relationships. Also love the application process and exclusivity in who they allow in, so many apps let in anybody and everybody making me so reluctant to actually go on dates out of concern for my own safety. And the minimum word count on the prompts really shows you just who you are talking to and what they want before you put in too much time and energy. Cannot recommend Cuffed enough for people looking for the real deal.

this app is great. I’ve noticed that all the bad reviews are from people who haven’t actually been accepted yet. As someone who’s been on the app for a few months, this idea actually works. I haven’t opened Hinge in ages and only really use Cuffed at this point. Been on a few great first dates and ended up on a second, third, fourth date… fingers crossed for more. My friend got partnered with someone at one of their events and now they’re seeing each other. the one match at a time thing really works!A suggestion: host events more frequently!

Unlike other dating apps, people here are very specific in what they’re looking for to the point where it is almost silly. I think because they’re in a place like NYC and the app wants you to only date a single person, they are truly shooting for the moon. You’ll see things like “looking for a guy over 6 feet with a stem degree and has lived in multiple cities around the world/ speaks at least three languages”. Like, are you nuts?? I get it, if there’s somewhere to find someone like that it’s NYC, but even if you’re an above average guy, many girls on here are looking for such specific niches that almost seem impossible to live up to. Like let’s at least wait till the third date for you to tell me I don’t live up to your standards, the old fashioned way.
