Apex Review highlights a dating app that brings in the same old excitement around finding a new person for a date combined with exciting new features. The two together make the age-old process of falling in love online look and feel fresh despite following the same technique. Confused, are you? The platform is a dating app that makes things interesting. Finding people by looking at options is old; Apex makes things interesting by making the user a critic. Yes, you heard that right. It means you get to see two members of the opposite sex simultaneously and choose one over the one. The algorithm of the platform uses your profile for the same game. Every time someone chooses you over someone else, you get points. The points are what you need to use the features that help you connect with the members on the site. There are other features that make the dating platform stand out in the crowd of dating platforms available online today. You should thank the Apex Review for the detailed elaboration that gives clarity about the dating platform.
The question of scam arises when a dating platform uses fake profiles mostly created by bots to attract users and make them pay on false notions, despite having no user base. As unreal and devilish as it may sound, many premium popular dating platforms survive like this in the industry. Thus, you will find people randomly cursing top dating sites and marking them scam without actually trying them. There are very few dating platforms that can be trusted for having real users. Apex Review shows that the platform is one of the rare ones that doesn’t claim to have unreal profiles. The system is actually very transparent. And actually, if you can use the dating site in your favor, you might not even need to pay. Does that seem like good news?!
Apex Review finds it difficult to judge the exact number of registered users on the dating platform. The site works on connecting nearby users, sounds similar? Tinder works in the same manner. It is the very reason why the size of the user base worldwide does not matter on the platform. Because even if the popularity of the dating site is huge in and around New York, it won’t make any difference to the users in Nigeria. Although the user base is of good size in general, it is bound to differ from location to location. It is one of the problems of best dating apps like Apex that function using GPS. Thus, the popularity of the app in such a case plays a very big role in making the platform function well and get better reviews and get more attraction.
Apex, in general, allows and is sensitive towards all types of sexuality, which can be understood seeing its registration form. The very first question the dating app asks its new users, is about their gender and the preferred gender of their date. For this purpose, Apex Review noticed that the platform offers both ‘man and woman’ as an option for any gender. However, what seems to be absent on the platform is the recognition of transgenders. There is no option to select a transgender both as a gender and a date. While heterosexuality is noted to be the most popular sexual orientation on the platform, the number of homosexuals on the site depends on the openness in an area.
One of the most important considerations about a dating platform is the age distribution on the site. If you look into the dating structure, you will notice that the app is designed and ideated, keeping in mind the taste and liking of the youth. The culture on Apex, suggests that the app is a perfect option for finding casual dates, partners for flings, and hookups. But so was the case for Tinder. Yet, there are so many success stories that claim that people have met, fallen in love, and eventually married using Tinder. It is a perfect example of ‘if there is a will, there is a way.’ It is the very reason why there is no reason not to find serious relationships on Apex.
However, considering the nature of the app, one can realize that it is a perfect solution for youngsters aged 18 to 35. While 18 years is the minimum eligibility age requirement, there is no upper limit stated on the app. However, not many people in the age groups above 35 are enough to attract the limelight. The population stats vary from location to location; however, the low numbers in the age groups above 35 yrs is common.
The registration process is a very simple step on Apex. Like other popular platforms, registration is compulsory; however, it cannot be merged with social logins. Every new user has to answer the basic questions asked during the signup process. But thanks to the ease and simplicity of the registration form of Apex, users don’t get offended for not having a simpler and faster login option. Right after downloading the app, users are asked to either log in with their registered email id and password or sign up as a new user.
New users obviously need to select sign up and proceed to select their gender and the preferred gender of their date. Right after the gender selection comes the next step where the user is required to enter their birthdate and their pin code to help Apex identify the user’s location. After the basics, as part of the final registration step, the users are required to enter a preferred username for their profile, email id, and a password. Apex requires you to use a unique username for your profile on the dating platform, which is why adding adjectives that describe your unique personality can be a good option.
While the registration process is extremely small, Apex Review notes the setting up of the profile isn’t that much. Although none of the steps in the setting up of the profile stage is compulsory, the dating platform recommends its users to complete as much as possible to find better dates. The user profiles, in general, show very basic information about the users, for example, name, age, gender, location, and profile photo. So it is the same information that you, as a new user, put in during the registration process that makes up your profile. However, one is also required to add a few photos apart from the profile photo for better exposure. And aside from the visible profile setup, there is a list of questions that Apex asks its users. Although the answers to these questions are not revealed to the public, and neither is compulsory to answer, answering them helps the algorithm find a good match for you.
Messaging is simple on Apex. Like all other dating platforms, messaging is considered the life-changing option on the dating app. However, just like other premium dating platforms, sending messages on Apex is not available for free. One has to use coins to send messages. However, one can send messages to anyone they like and come across as cute on the app without having to wait for them to like them back. The system relieves the users from the concept of mutual liking on the app like it is a requirement on Tinder. Other than messages, there are ample options for sending gifts to each other to make virtual contacting fun. Apex’s chat system is pretty advanced and allows voice calling and video calling, aside from traditional texting. Although there is a super cool rating game that can help you find interesting dates, one can also use the search bar, and nearby users option for the same.
The user experience of every dating platform largely depends on the technical side of the platform as well. Many times, a good idea fails due to the lack of tech support. Especially in the case of dating platforms, one must understand that the platform’s success depends on the acceptance of people. It is the very reason why the performance of the platform is given so much importance. The quality of a dating app or a website is measured not just on the quality of the profiles available on the site but also the ease at which the platform can be used. Also, the popularity is directly proportional to the performance of the platform. Apex Review in the next sections talks about the various platforms the dating platform is available in and their details.
Unfortunately, the dating site in concern does not come in a desktop version. It means there is no website, so users cannot access the platform from a desktop. The only option to use the platform is through using the app. Even though statistics say that the absence of a browser version doesn’t impact the popularity of a dating platform in the mobile world. However, it is also true that the largest and the most popular dating platforms existing online today make sure to cater to users across all platforms and assure convenience. Does the absence of a desktop version hurt the image and popularity of Apex or not is a completely different discussion that you should not be interested in now! The fact remains that there isn’t any currently and doesn’t seem to be any development in the future.
Apex is a dating platform that can only be accessed on the mobile in the app form. The dating app of Apex is available for free download on both Android and iPhone users. The dating app is available on Google Play for the android users and App Store for the iOS users to easily access the new age dating platform. However, the Apex Review finds out that none of the apps are currently available on the app stores. It could be a temporary thing and be down, something that happens due to temporary technical glitches. Or it could be permanently taken down from the internet as well. Although, the article will consider this sudden absence from the app stores as a temporary problem. It means either the app is about to get a renewed branding or a warning for the users that the technical side of the app isn’t the strongest.
Another important consideration of the technical side of the app is its interface and design. It is kept very simple yet stylish. The black theme color on the app gives it a cool look. However, the makers have balanced the black with ample amounts of white background space. Along with the classic black and white, the app uses a golden yellow color to define the app’s design and highlight important features and information. The app has a good speed that makes the performance, and thus, the experience on the platform very smooth.
The navigation is one of the most important elements considered for the user experience. On Apex, it is nicely done by stacking it up in the options button. Leaving nothing for the confusion, the makers have listed all important features together that can be summoned by hitting the options button on the top left. Both the words and the design are done in a way that suits well with people across age groups and countries without any difficulty.
Similar to all premium dating platforms, Apex as well is not free. It has a premium version, and thus it becomes difficult for the free standard users to access the whole of the app with ease. Just like other similar apps, Apex limits the usage with a free account. However, instead of having subscription plans, it uses a points system, something that goes well with the younger audience. And what truly sets the dating platform apart from others is that although the points can be purchased on Apex, they can also be earned by making a popular profile. The voting game where users are encouraged to choose one of the two grants the chosen member some points. So if you are capable enough to create a nice good looking profile that would be preferred over your competitors, then you might not even need to pay at all.
Considering that Apex requires its users to spend points to use certain features, it can be considered as paid features on the platform. So listing the features under two segments for a direct comparison, ones that require no coins at all also can be called free and ones that are paid and need coins to work.

Paid Features
As mentioned before, unlike other premium dating platforms, Apex doesn’t function on subscription plans. It requires points; however, points can either be bought like plans or be earned by completing simple tasks in the contests section. Also, unique to Apex users can even choose to exchange their coins for money. The money is not a small amount. Apex gives as much as $250 in exchange for 10,000 coins and $100 against 5,000 coins. Although the coins can only be sold in bulk amounts, buying options are different and are mentioned below.

Users get six options to choose from, after selecting the desired number of coins they want to purchase, they can proceed to the payment section. The payment gateway on Apex offers its users a credit card and Paypal wallet options for the ease of payment. The best part about the coin system is that it doesn’t go for automatic renewal, unlike other platforms. It means that the users do not need to be worried about getting charged unnecessarily on their cards or wallets.
Although Apex doesn’t have a strict verification process that many platforms offer, what it does compulsorily as part of the registration process is email verification. While the email verification may not be enough but the system of video calls can be a good alternate option. One can check whether the person using the profile is the same as on the photograph or not by doing a quick video call. However, on all dating platforms, it is always recommended not to share your private details with strangers and trust their sad financial stories.
As of now, the reviews on the internet do not suggest Apex running a scam. The chances of the same are also very less because the app runs on points than subscription plans. Also, because the points can be earned on the app, the design of the app makes running a scam really difficult. However, no one can trust the money launderers. In that case, users are given the option of a report block, which brings these users in the attention of the makers for suspicious behavior. If found guilty, Apex can suspend or even ban the users permanently from using their platform.
Although at one look, Apex may seem a lot similar to the popular dating apps, on a closer look, many unique features can be found on the platform.
To sum up, Apex is a fun dating app perfect for youngsters, especially in college, to quickly find dates for flings and partners. The platform is a suitable place for finding casual dates and flings. However, there could be rare cases of serious relationships as well. It runs on a points system, although the points on Apex can both be earned and bought on the dating platform. The uniqueness of the app makes it stand out amongst the crowd, although the current absence of Apex from the app stores makes all the image building go to waste.
