Duet - Date & Meet New Friends 17+

In complete and total honesty, I’ve been looking for an app to replace Tinder. However, Duet does hold matches from you in an attempt to make you buy their premium feature. The problem with that is it discourages new people from staying and it means that buying the premium is worth it because there’s only few people. My honest advice is to just wait until the app developers realize that is actually making people leave and reverse it.
Other than the app holding matches from you in an attempt to get you to buy premium, the app’s usability is decent. It’s not as streamlined as Tinder, Hinge, and Bumble, so people are forced to take a good minute to actually put effort into their profile. Making profiles more mandatory to get verified is a very good policy to have as it’ll stop bots and fakes from getting on the app.
The profiles themselves were good, people do take time to build it up, and put their information. Even the ones with no bio, there’s still plenty of info for them to share.
Price of Premium is another problem. With the app not having many people, i wouldn’t pay $24 a month. If it were up to me, premium would be $10 a month, in attempt to keep what community i have, and encourage building up because i know a majority of people want a replacement for Tinder.
In conclusion I do not recommend Duet as it’s a ghost town, and it’ll stay a ghost town. However if premium is reversed you make see people flock in.

I like the app look and feel. The profiles look nice and I like the extra features crush and reverse, but the main issue I have with the app is the age and distance filters.

The really big issue for me is the age filter not working as someone in their later twenties I do not want to see profiles of people 18-20 as one the age gap is pretty significant that I would feel uncomfortable talking to them mush less seeing them in person and even if I have an age setting it still shows me users outside the limits. This is why I have considered removing it until this feature gets fixed and refined.

There is a similar issue on the distance filter but it’s not as big of a deal as I would be okay taking to someone a bit farther away as long as the first (age ) filter worked correctly.

Dev team please fix this and I think you will have a really solid app that could be useful and enjoyable to be on! I will be awaiting the update.

This app may work for people in different areas. But I have my location distance locked at 30miles. This is being broken almost all the time. I do not have expand my search on. This is most likely because the app does not actually have enough people around me. Not only that but I’ve gotten multiple matches without premium (so it does seem that even without premium this app pushes your account to people in your area) but even if you have premium you will not match with them. I know it sounds insane but if I were to text one of these non-premium users they will not get it because they need to also get premium to see the match and the text. Not only that but after a couple “125+ miles away” I all of a sudden see someone that’s 11 miles away. Which sounds good like the app is fixing itself but it’s not good cause it’s always 11miles away, it seems fishy. Anyways the blind date feature seems rad but it only ever worked ones for me which extends my point it seems like there’s really no one in my area on this app so the app shows me people who are a 125+ miles away and or 11 miles away in an attempt to make me think that there are actually people on the app. If you plan to use this app do not buy premium but also if you use this app it’s useless without premium. So I’d just say steer clear.
