Here's What Users Dislike The Most About The Eharmony Dating App

There are several ways to go about dating, and several of them have little to no cost. Meeting someone through a mutual friend, at an event, or even at a bar can have minimal effect on your wallet. When it comes to current dating apps, however, this isn't always the case. Over the 10 years that many of the most well-known dating apps (like Tinder or Bumble) have been around, new paid features and membership options have been created that rake in quite a profit for the dating app industry; in fact, in 2021 the industry was estimated to have a worth of 7.5 billion, according to Grand View Research.

While there are plenty of different one-time use options or membership levels on other apps, eharmony stands out among the rest as one of the most expensive online dating avenues — a common complaint among users. While Mashable says that the app is the best for "marriage-minded" daters looking to find their future spouse, DatingScout reports that eharmony is among the most expensive dating apps, with the lowest membership plan priced at $35.90 per month. The free membership, according to both sites, is very restricted and may not be worth trying. For most users who are familiar with apps like Tinder or Hinge, which offer plenty of free features, this may be too large of a cost.
