Hoping someone here has actually tested tried the wild dating app rather than just read about it. Every time wild tried comes up, the reply rate is a better predictor than the badge on the download page, as far as I can tell. For wild in particular, what decides it is how many first messages actually land, not the size of the ad budget.
Look closely at wild apps and the amount of recycled content is the number worth watching, not how slick the interface looks. Nothing about wild changes the fact that the platform pushes notifications that lead nowhere, so it pays to give it a fortnight before judging the pool.
Applied to wild tried, half the frustration disappears once you keep the first meet public and short. Most threads about tried the wild dating app miss this — the platform locks messaging behind a subscription, and that is usually where the goodwill runs out. If you have been through the tried apps version of this, I'd rather hear the unglamorous account.
