As online dating becomes increasingly popular in the United States, there are more and more dating apps to choose from. It can be easy to get lost! This is especially the case if you’re looking for a specific type of person who shares your interests or is from a similar background. While it can be hard to find your niche in an ordinary dating app, the rise in online dating generally means there are also much more choices when it comes to more specialized dating preferences.
Here are the top picks for interracial dating apps:
Interracial Match
Interracial Match is one of the biggest interracial dating sites, and also has its own companion app. The app does a great job of maintaining the convenience of the full site and is super easy to use. The app uses your phone’s geolocation feature to recognize your location, and has easy to use messaging features. It also has useful filters to help you find a great match, and also to filter out spam or fake accounts.
Interracial Match has more than 1 million active users, and also offers a range of paid subscription accounts with added features, including video sharing and age and image verification.
Afroromance has a huge user base, with thousands of users all looking for the perfect interracial relationship. Signing up is free, and creating a profile takes just a few minutes.
One of the other primary advantages of Afroromance is that it allows users to search for partners not only by ethnicity, but also by religion and by age. There are also specific filters for senior dating, retiree dating, and single parent dating.
BlackWhite Dating
Aimed at pairing black women and men looking for white partners and vice versa, BlackWhite Dating also uses geolocators to match people with potential partners from their area. Available for free for both iOS and Android, the app also has several paid subscription options for people who want to pay for premium features.
Users can be quite specific about the type of person they’re looking for and can fill out quite a detailed profile to get an even better match. This is really an app for people looking for serious relationships, so if you’re looking for something more casual, it might not be the one for you.
