About OkCupid
OkCupid has been around since 2003 and stands out for its extensive personality questionnaire and compatibility-based matching. Users answer questions on everything from politics to lifestyle, and OkCupid uses these to calculate match percentages. It's one of the most inclusive mainstream apps, offering a wide range of gender identities and sexual orientations. The free tier is generous — you can message anyone without paying. OkCupid A-List removes ads and adds advanced filters and profile boosts.
