Pros: They have a good number of people on the site. Cons: There isn't a tutorial to help you with the app at the beginning. The app doesn't keep the filters you choose and gives you people hundreds of miles away and ages way out of your range. Bad customer service: After 10 minutes I contacted the customer service for a refund and they said they could not, even though the payment company said Upward has to initiate the refund. They refused to. 90% of the likes were scams outside filters choice

Maybe about 3 months back the app was better, but as of late, it's really buggy, features that were there have now disappeared. I deleted my profile and remade it, thinking there was some random error, was to no avail. It seems to be a pattern like every others dating app. The word "Christian" is very misleading, it's a whole mish/mash of faiths.

06/24 update: free version nearly unusable, only filter available is age. Your profile is consistently shown to people outside your desired age range, so when you pay for a subscription, all those "likes" are from ppl you don't want to talk to. Cust. service is non-existent, spam profiles overwhelming, blocked profiles come back next day. Recent update doesn't fix any problems, just changes the font. When you click on the stickers, profiles don't load. Need to be able to filter by denomination.
