Craigslist is a classified ad site that has been very popular for many years now. You can find or sell practically anything you like on Craigslist — from casual encounters to cars and an endless stream of services. When it comes to gay dating, Craigslist used to be one of the best options out there, but nowadays, there are gay dating apps that will provide you with much better results. Here are three top gay dating apps:
1. Grindr
Grindr is probably the most well-known app for gay dating. It is also known as the Tinder for gay men. It is so popular for a good reason, it provides what it advertises — a simple way to bring gay men together. It is a very functional and easy-to-use app. Its geo-targeting system will give you a large number of potential matches in your area as its database is immense. Another big advantage of Grindr is that it is free to download and use. It has a premium version called Grindr Xtra that gives you additional features, but you can get by easily with the free version. No matter where you live, Grindr is one of the best options you have when it comes to casual gay hookups.
2. Scruff
This is a gay dating app that gives Grindr a run for its money. Scruff is an app that provides gay men with a multitude of options. While Grindr is dedicated to casual hookups, Scruff is much more versatile. On this app, you can look for casual encounters, dedicated relationships or even platonic friendships. It has a large user database which also happens to be very active. You will find people online no matter what time of the day or night you choose to login. The profile creation process is simple and effective. From the beginning, you can state what types of men you are interested in. You can also expand your profile whenever you feel like it. There is a pro version that costs $14.99 per month and offers some extra features, but the free version is very decent in its own regard. Scruff is an amazing app that will give you the chance to find any type of man you are looking for.
3. Jack'D
Jack'D is a refreshing app that brought a new wave of interest in dating apps to the gay community. Much like Scruff, Jack'D is very versatile and offers the user a variety of options to choose from. You can adjust your profile any way you like and be connected with people that have the same interests as you do. The profile creation process might be a little old-fashioned, but it provides you with strong privacy protection.
The whole aesthetic of the app is very well designed and it will never allow the user to get bored — no matter how long he uses the app. Another big advantage of Jack'D is its "Pro" cost. While the app is free, you can also buy the pro version for additional features. It will cost you $1.99 per week or $29.99 per year. No matter what you are after, this app will provide you with a pleasant environment and you will have the chance to fulfill your desires.
