Why am I seeing profiles from other dating apps?

Quick answer: We’ve started introducing members from across our broader community of dating apps, so some profiles you see originated on a sister app.

  • Everyone you see has identified as a member of your community and is genuinely looking for a meaningful connection.
  • Nothing you do changes — Likes, matches and Intro Messages work exactly as they always have.
  • We widened the door a little; we didn’t change who LDS Singles is for.
  • More control over whether you see matches from our sister apps is something we’re exploring, not something you can switch on today.

LDS Singles has started introducing members from across our broader community of dating apps, so some of the profiles you see now began on one of our sister apps rather than here. This article explains who those members are, why we widened the pool, and what it changes about the way you use LDS Singles.

What’s changed. We know LDS Singles works because everyone here is looking for something real, within a shared faith and set of values. To help you meet more people who fit that, we’ve started introducing members from across our broader community of dating apps.

Who you’re seeing. Everyone you see has identified as a member of your community and is genuinely looking for a meaningful connection. We just widened the door a little.

What this means for you. There’s nothing you need to do. A mutual like is still what opens a conversation, and Likes, matches and Intro Messages all work exactly as they did before. See How Does Matching Work? If any of those terms are new to you, see A quick glossary of LDS Singles terms.

I joined LDS Singles specifically. Why am I seeing people from other apps?

Because LDS Singles hasn’t changed who it’s for. LDS Singles is one of several dating brands operated by Black Cap — see About Black Cap — and someone who has identified as a member of the Latter Day Saint community may have created their profile on one of those other apps rather than on this one. What widened is where we look for them, not who counts.

Control over this is something we’re exploring. We’re always looking for new ways to help you find the right match, and we’re exploring ways to give you more control over whether you see matches from our sister apps. That control isn’t available yet, and we don’t want to suggest otherwise. If you’d like to weigh in, contact Customer Support using this link — we’ll share your comments with the appropriate team for consideration. For the preferences you can set today, see How do I change my preferences?

If a profile doesn’t belong here. The same tools apply to every profile you see, wherever it originated. You can block or report anyone, and our team reviews every report. See Is LDS Singles legit? How we keep our community safe and How do I report suspicious or inappropriate behavior?

Here’s to meeting someone great
