Apps Like Mutual for LDS Dating
Mutual isn’t for everyone. Here are the best dating sites to try instead, depending on what you want.
When to look at Mutual alternatives
Mutual is the first place most Latter-day Saints look, and since it’s free, there’s rarely a reason to leave it altogether. People add other apps when few members live nearby, when they’d rather not swipe, or when they’re older and see few people in their age range.
If you’re over 30 or prefer a website
LDS Singles suggests a few people a day and lets you set preferences for missions and church activity. It works only in the US, Canada, Australia and US territories. See Mutual vs LDS Singles.
If you want a site to do the matching
eHarmony uses a long compatibility quiz, and it attracts people who want something long-term. You’ll meet people of other faiths too, so say what matters to you.
If you live far from a big LDS community
Hinge lets you set religion as a preference, and it’s free to match and message. It’s a useful way to find members in cities with smaller wards, and to widen your search at the same time.
If you’re open to other Christians
Christian Mingle has a broader Christian mix, so ask early about what matters to you.
Don’t forget your ward
Mutual itself says it’s one more way to meet people, not a replacement for singles wards and being set up by friends. Our LDS dating sites ranking compares the apps made for you. If you’re moving somewhere new, Mutual’s Ward Hop can show you who’s there before you switch apps.
