Even Review UK: Single Parent Matching, Free Chat and Passes

Even is operated by Meetic SAS and is available to UK adults through iOS and Android. The app is designed for single parents and people who actively want to date them, so parenthood is presented as normal relationship context rather than a late disclosure.

The product combines a mutual-match dating flow with unusually detailed family information. A profile can include the number and ages of children, custody arrangements, personal interests, relationship expectations, written prompts and three core values. Free matched chat makes it possible to test actual conversations before buying a pass.

1. Registration and parent status

Registration creates an adult profile with location, photos, dating preferences and family information. Members can state whether they are a parent and describe children and custody in broad terms; non-parents can join when they are genuinely open to dating someone with children.

2. Profiles and values

Profiles combine photographs, child and childcare information, hobbies, expectations, written prompts and three selected core values. Parent-specific prompts provide useful conversation material without requiring children to appear in photos or be identified by name.

3. Discovery and daily selections

Even presents detailed profiles and a daily personalised selection based on preferences. Free access covers a limited discovery route; Essential unlocks unrestricted browsing, revisiting profiles and an ad-free interface.

4. Matching, messages and calls

Mutual matches can chat free. Voice notes, audio calls and video calls allow a parent to assess communication without sharing a telephone number or arranging childcare for an initial meeting. Premium adds unlimited sending, read receipts and up to three weekly Super Likes.

5. Essential, Premium and Prestige

Essential adds unlimited profile browsing, a likes view, received-message access and no advertising. Premium adds unlimited messaging, visitors, advanced filters, all qualifying profiles, Super Likes and read receipts. Prestige adds a daily Boost, priority Likes, Prestige filters and the Anti-Ghosting feature.

6. Private Mode

Private Mode controls who can see the profile and supports browsing without appearing in general search results. This is useful for teachers, healthcare workers and parents concerned about recognition, although any person deliberately shown the profile can still retain information.

7. Verification and moderation

Every profile description and photo is moderated within 24 hours. Photo verification, report and block controls, a dedicated safety centre and in-app calls provide additional checks before meeting. These measures do not verify custody, employment or relationship history.

8. Main limitations

The free discovery allowance is more restricted than the free chat route suggests, and the three pass levels make upgrades more complicated than a single Premium plan. Local choice is smaller than on a mainstream app, and non-parent members mean users must still read family intentions carefully.

Even is the clearest first choice for UK single parents who want parenting circumstances visible from the start. The free match-and-chat route is genuinely useful, while paid passes mainly improve discovery and control. Its specialist pool will not match the local scale of Match or Bumble, but the profiles remove several conversations that mainstream apps leave unstructured.

Even sells Essential, Premium and Prestige passes through the app. The UK storefront does not display one stable public pound table outside the purchase screen, so no unverified price has been inserted here. Each tier's functional differences are listed below.

• All profile photos and descriptions are moderated within 24 hours.
• Photo verification adds a visible authenticity signal.
• Audio and video calls work without sharing a phone number.
• Private Mode restricts general profile visibility.
• Children's names, schools, uniforms and regular locations should remain private.

Profile checks and moderation reduce specific forms of misuse but do not establish every member’s identity, finances, relationship status or future conduct.

Passes purchased through the Apple App Store or Google Play renew through that store account. Auto-renewal must be turned off in the same store subscription settings; deleting the Even profile or removing the app does not cancel store billing. Profile deletion is completed separately inside Even's account controls.
