Love It or Leave It?

Well, that's anticlimactic. Nothing moved. Not a single app shuffled position, gained a point, or had a dramatic fall from grace. EliteSingles is still sitting pretty at 92/100, Tinder's still coasting on brand recognition despite a middling 7.5/10 review score, and OkCupid remains the app equivalent of that friend who's "actually really interesting once you get to know them" — except nobody's bothering to get to know them (58.4/100 says it all).

But here's the thing: a flat week doesn't mean nothing's happening. Look at the gaps. EliteSingles leads by 6 points over SilverSingles, yet Bumble (85.7) is breathing down both their necks. Meanwhile, eHarmony's sitting in 9th place with the highest review score we give (9.8/10) but a genuinely alarming overall score of 64.9. That's the real story — our reviews love it, but something about the user experience is killing it. Probably the paywall. Probably the algorithm. Probably both.

For anyone downloading this weekend: if you're serious about finding an actual partner, EliteSingles and SilverSingles are doing the job. If you want volume, lower stakes, and better app functionality, Bumble, Zoosk, and Tinder will serve you better. Just know what you're paying for.
