The League adds read receipts, so paid members can confirm when someone is really ghosting them

The League,

 A dating app that users need to follow to join, has a brand new feature that might assist with one of the most agonizing parts of the online dating process — thinking if someone’s deliberately ignoring you or if they simply haven’t opened the app in a while.

Specifically, The League is importing an idea from different messaging offerings — examine receipts, which tell you if someone has read your messages.

 I’m not a big fan of read receipts  In most contexts, however I can see the enchantment right here. They received’t let you know why someone all of sudden decided that they don’t want to speak to you anymore, but as a minimum you’ll recognise while that’s what truely passed off. (Unfastened recommendation: whilst this takes place, do no longer ship an irritated message requesting a proof.)

 In fact, The League says this changed into the unmarried most requested characteristic amongst members of its pilot paid membership software. And yes, this is a feature that you’ll need to pay for — nonpaying customers (like me) will see a “take a look at read popularity” button of their conversations, but tapping on it just takes you to a web page where you can sign on for a paid club.

A League membership prices $179.ninety nine for a year and includes features like profile remarks and get admission to to extra capacity matches.

“Our purpose is to build out a valuable club software that works for the exquisite busy, tough­operating type-A customers we're lucky sufficient to have logging in daily,” said CEO Amanda Bradford in a press launch. “Due to the fact our network is smaller and tighter­-knit it method every member gets to have a massive effect on our product roadmap.”
