What daters think

This experience was beyond easy and so much FUN!! This process is different but tbh is how app dating should be- cut through the fluff and get an immediate vibe check.

Emily S., 31
I like that it lets me have a quick conversation to see if it's worth going through the process of texting and setting something up in person - it's a significantly better and more efficient use of my time.

Cara F., 34
It's better than any other dating app out there right now.

Joe L., 27
I've been on and off dating apps and it's so much better speaking with someone right away on Blink versus messaging a profile for days or weeks. This app saves so much time!

Alexandra A., 32
Blink is anti-toxic in a couple of ways: it doesn’t consume my emotional energy like the apps do, and it seems to lead to dates faster (2 of my 3 calls have led to IRL dates).

Andrew S., 28
It’s more authentic than other dating apps.

Junaid C., 28
I love being able to go on quick dates when you have free time without having to commit to an entire night out with someone you don’t know if you will even connect with in person.

Ava M., 27
It gets straight to personality, and I like that it feels more natural and organic than messaging.

Jon L., 30
I liked that it was audio-only and I didn’t need to get ready or go anywhere.

Brooke G., 32
Our call was so fun — the most fun I’ve had talking to someone on a date in longer than I care to admit.

Mary C., 33
It's a fun way of meeting people! It's also very time efficient.

Sabrina J., 21
Blink saved me so much time. It didn't feel like a burden like it usually does with other dating apps. Not having to swipe was such a plus.

Samantha S., 32
Really lets you focus on the connection, their energy, how they articulate themselves - not just a photo or other superficial things.

Sarah K, 33
It was fun to get to know someone without the pressure of feeling like you had to perform for the other person.

Joe C., 39
Low stakes; people are in a place they're comfortable, with no social norms keeping them, and no spending money on drinks or dinner just yet.

Kingston H., 28
I like the voice experience over just messaging. You can understand so much from talking over the phone. It's more engaging and leaves you wanting more.

Savannah S., 24
I love that it only took 10 minutes to figure out if I genuinely wanted to meet someone or not. It completely cut out all the boring swiping and waiting for people to message back.

Soraya R., 30
Brings the fun of real-life dating into the comfort of your home!

Sarah L., 27
Audio-only definitely relieves a lot of pressure! It's easier to suss out chemistry if you can hear someone's voice & mannerisms.

Michelle H., 29
Easy and pressure free way to talk with potential matches.

Sam B., 33
This was a nice way to try a different way of dating on apps but still making use of technology.

Georgia L., 28
A unique and fun way for first dates and connections to happen.

Aaron P., 47
It’s a fun way to meet people and doesn’t have the difficulty of having images first and only communicating through text.

Thomas L., 25
