Plainly
How it works, what it costs, and what happens to your data — answered without marketing language, because these are the questions worth being straight about.
Yes. Matching, messaging, safety tools and your daily set are free, always — free is a complete experience, not a trial. Kindrd+ is an optional £7.99/month upgrade that adds depth: seeing everyone you're compatible with rather than just the daily set, seeing who viewed you, a monthly boost, deeper filters and event hosting.
Never. Distance is calculated from city centres only. Kindrd does not collect or display precise GPS location, and you can hide any identity field from your profile while still using it to match.
Instead of an endless deck, you get a small set of genuinely compatible people each day, chosen on identity, relationship intent and values. It is deliberately small so that each profile gets read rather than swiped, and so the prompts people wrote have room to do their job.
The whole LGBTQ+ spectrum — lesbian, gay, bi, pan, trans, non-binary, ace and questioning people, and anyone still working it out. The spectrum is the starting point rather than a mode added later, which is why gender identity and who you want to meet are real matching fields rather than decorative tags.
No. Per-field visibility means you can use any identity detail for matching while keeping it off your public profile, and discreet mode lets you browse and reach out without appearing in other people's daily sets. Nobody should have to out themselves to use a dating app.
Yes. Any identity field can be hidden from display while still being used by the matching. Listing yourself as a trans man also makes you findable by everyone seeking men — the expansion is match-only and one-way, seeking is never expanded, and your profile always shows exactly what you picked.
Everyone is 18+, confirmed by a date-of-birth gate at sign-up. You can block or report anyone from their profile or your chat with them; blocking is instant and silent, and reports go to a human moderator. Chat is text-only by design, so no images can be sent in messages, and an automated filter runs on every message.
In Settings, anytime. Access runs to the end of the paid period and then billing stops — no cancellation fees, no retention hoops. Every first purchase carries a 14-day money-back guarantee.
