A dating app that keeps ignoring search radius parameters is typically one that doesn’t have as many matches within the parameters that you have set.

If you are repeatedly noticing that the dating apps that you use keep doing this, there is a good chance that this is the case.

There are some dating apps that do a lot better with matches in certain parts of the country that you live in.

You may simply not be in a town or city that the dating app does well, in terms of population and match options.

Again, there are certain dating apps that do better with matches depending on where you are located.

This is why it is often a good idea to do some research before choosing to sign up on a dating app.

Find out what people within the search radius parameters that you would want to use on a dating app have to say about that dating app.

If you notice that there aren’t many people commenting about their experience with the dating app within the search radius parameters that you would want, it may be an indication that the dating app just doesn’t have enough matches within those parameters.

When dating apps don’t have enough members within a search radius parameter, they may look elsewhere in order to provide a match.

Even if you have already outlined or inputted your search radius parameters, the dating app may ignore this just so that they can send you a match.

In order to prevent this from happening to you in the future, it is best to do some research on whatever dating app you are thinking about joining before joining it.

Find out if there are a good number of people in your area or within your preferred search radius parameters that are actually using that dating app.

Don’t simply go by what the dating app shows you as people that are in your area who are supposedly members.

Oftentimes, people are misled into thinking that a dating app has a lot of people within their search radius parameters simply because the dating app is showing them profiles of those people.

Do understand that those online dating profiles that are within your search radius parameters may be of people who have long since abandoned the dating app and are no longer using it, or even people who have created fake profiles just so that they can lure you into a scam.

Always use an independent source to help you determine whether a dating app that you are thinking about joining actually has a sufficient number of members within the search radius parameters that you prefer.

Dating apps that ignore search radius parameters may also have a feature that asks you about how important your search radius parameters are.

Look for this feature on whatever dating apps you are using.

If you do not specifically let the dating app know just how important your search radius parameters are, you may start getting matches from outside those parameters.

The dating app would take your lack of insistence on those search radius parameters as an indication that you are open to a wider radius.

Checking for this feature may save you a lot of frustration.
