WEB-FIRST DATING
Dating Sites Without an App
Some people simply prefer a browser. Others need a desktop option because an app-first service does not fit their situation. This page checks for current web access rather than assuming every dating service works everywhere.

Web access can change
Product surfaces change. Bumble, for example, discontinued its web version in March 2026 according to its official support documentation. That is why DatingFindr stores a check date with each profile instead of treating web availability as permanent.
