Dateability is built for disabled and chronically ill people, and it's a genuinely good thing that it exists. If it's working, there's no reason to move.
People do look for alternatives though, and the reasons are usually practical rather than dramatic.
Browser as well as app
We work in any browser on any device. If you'd rather use a laptop, or a tablet, or something that isn't your phone, that's available. The site also installs to your home screen if you want it app shaped, and native apps exist in selected markets.
Small thing until it isn't. For members whose disability makes phone use tiring, having a real keyboard and a bigger screen changes how usable a platform is.
How far the free tier goes
Ours isn't a trial with a countdown. Full profile, free ID verification, browse everyone, daily matches, a set number of messages a day, and unlimited replies to anyone who's paid. No card to start.
Whether you upgrade is genuinely your call. It buys unlimited messaging and better search, and plenty of people never bother.
Breadth of the community
We cover disability broadly. Physical, sensory, neurodivergent, learning disability, chronic illness, mental health, visible and invisible. Members range from their twenties to well past sixty.
If you specifically want a space focused on chronic illness and the culture around it, a tighter platform may feel more like home. If you want range, that's what we've got.
Verification and moderation
Free ID verification on every tier, including the free one. Video verification if you'd rather not send documents. Photos and messages screened before they reach you by software and by people. A member rating based on how they treat people, and instant permanent blocking.
Worth comparing properly on any platform you're considering, because it's the thing that most affects what your inbox feels like.

Free to join, no card needed, and nothing stopping you being on both while you decide.
Common questions
What's the difference between Disabled Love Dates and Dateability?
Both are built for disabled daters. We work in a browser as well as on mobile, cover disability broadly rather than focusing on chronic illness, and our free tier includes ID verification, browsing, daily matches and a set number of daily messages.
Is Disabled Love Dates free to use?
Yes, with a free tier that isn't time limited. Upgrading adds unlimited messaging and advanced search filters.
Which is better?
Depends what you want. A tighter community focus has real value, and so does a wider pool with a browser option. Plenty of people try both.
Free to join, free to look around
