MySingleFriend Profile Quality

MySingleFriend Profile
  • Profile information is very detailed
  • Non-members can view profile pages
  • See member's online status
  • Tell a friend about another profile

    You will find a member's profile in MySingleFriends to perhaps one of the most detailed profiles (dating sites category). Some items are optional, nonetheless, a lot of members are comfortable in answering and posting their information on the site.

    Here are the sections and sample data that you will find on each part.

    • Main header: photo, username, verification status, age, location, and tagline.
    • About him/her: country, location, gender, age, star sign, height, body type, looks, hair color, eye color, relationship status, looking for, have children, want children, daily diet, smoking, drinking, education, occupation, income, ethnicity, home language, other languages, and religion
    • About his/her ideal match: (mostly the same as about him/her, but answers can be multiple for a wider range of options

    You'll find a circle beside each item, some a hollow, while some are shaded. A circle which is not shaded means that the item is not important at all; a circle with a quarter shade means that it is slightly important; a circle which is half-shaded means decidedly important, and lastly, a fully-shaded circle means non-negotiable.

    MySingleFriend Real Life Review

    "I like MySingleFriends because it has been very transparent from the start. I was able to check out some profiles and the prices of membership packages even before I signed up. At least I knew what to expect. Although it's a little bit pricey, I think it's worth it. I just hope I really find someone here." -Lara, 27

    "My friend wanted me to be a member so I can vouch for him and be his wingman. Well, since the registration is free, I just gave it a go. The funny part is, I found a match faster than he did. But he also found a match now so he's not mad anymore! Overall, I think it's a great site as a whole." -Macky, 29

    Design and Usability

    MySingleFriend is a deviates a little bit from other typical dating websites for being an open-book kind of site. Even non-members can check out some of the features and even the prices, so they can have an idea of what they are entering before finally signing up. But the part where non-members can check out featured profiles may or may not be safe. Nonetheless, the site doesn't allow posting of sensitive identity and contact information for their members' safety. Profiles are censored once in a while to check if members are following this rule.

    It has easy to understand features, nice fonts, minimalist interface. Even newbies wouldn't have a hard time navigating it. 

    The site doesn't have an app version, otherwise stated on the site that it has in-app purchases. However, you can download an APK version instead to be able to use it well on your Android devices.
