Best LDS Singles Alternatives in 2026

Why members look elsewhere

• Messaging needs Premium.
• Smaller than Mutual, especially for under-35s.
• Suggestions can be sparse outside areas with many Latter-day Saints.

Alternatives

• The biggest LDS app, free to message: Mutual — the first choice for most younger members.
• A large, serious platform with an LDS filter: eHarmony lets you choose Latter-day Saint as the faith you want to match with.
• A broader Christian community: Christian Mingle, from the same company, if you are open to dating outside the Church.
• Free messaging with faith on your profile: Hinge.

Many LDS singles use Mutual and LDS Singles together — Mutual for volume and free messaging, LDS Singles for suggested matches and an older crowd. As with any service, remember that none of these apps are run by the Church, and use your usual judgement when meeting someone new.

If you decide to leave, cancel auto-renewal before deleting your profile, or simply deactivate matching if you might come back.

Your location matters most in this choice. In Utah, Idaho and Arizona, Mutual alone usually offers plenty of people. Elsewhere, a combination works better: an LDS-specific service for shared standards, and eHarmony or Hinge for numbers, with faith stated clearly on your profile. Older members may also find that singles conferences and regional activities complement online dating better than any app does on its own.
