Our Review

LDS Planet is an online dating site perfect for single members of the Church of the Latter Day Saints who are looking for a special someone to be in a relationship with who shares the same belief as them. It is the largest dating site for single Mormons. In addition to that, LDS Planet has already produced numerous success stories. Another good thing about this online dating app that is exclusively for single LDS Church members is that possible matches will not have difficulty understanding each other because they share the same belief. LDS Planet has many features; one of which is Flirts. With this feature, paying members can see who virtually flirted with them. Another feature is Favorites, where online daters can see who saved them as somebody's favorite.

If you are a single Mormon seeking for a prospective partner who shares the same faith with you, check out LDS Planet, and search for a compatible match.

The LDS Planet online dating site is solely for single Mormons. These singles belong to different age groups. They are active users from 18 years old to over 40's and 50's who are having a busy schedule whether in their career or with church activities. This makes it really difficult for LDS singles to find or meet their potential mates. Not having the luxury of time to do other socialization activities may be a big factor for not being able to go out on dates. Having said that, LDS Planet addresses those kinds of issues. Single Mormons with time management problems find this site very effective. In addition to that, more single Mormons are relying on this site to look for prospective dates within the community.

Signing Up

Select preferred gender match.
Select country (US or Canada) and provide zip code.
Provide basic personal information.

The sign-up process is not complicated. Single LDS Church members are only required to give an active email address, a valid username, and a password. They are not asked to provide unnecessary details about themselves. There are some questions that aim to know a new user's level of faith. There is a questionnaire, which LDS online daters have the option to fill-out. An example of the several questions that they may answer is, "How I feel about the Church..." This set of questions is useful for other users to know more about them and to know if they are interesting or not.

Making Contact

Find people by entering a specific username or by looking at who's online.
Send and receive private messages.
Different searching options.

There is a chatroom

To initiate a conversation with someone you are interested in, you may send a message. However, to fully enjoy this feature, you must be subscribed to a plan. On the other hand, there are still several features that can be enjoyed by basic members. Some of which are knowing who viewed you and saving your favorite/s. This will help them know and assess the people who show interest in them. This will also allow them to remember and get back to the LDS singles they are interested in. As a result, these features will help open their communication lines and will give them a chance to meet and interact with each other in person.

The profile information here in LDS Planet is very effortless to answer. Similar to other dating platforms, a new user has to enter his or her primary personal details in order to proceed with the account registration. During the process, a user may want to give a comment or an explanation in the personality questions section. There are also fields where users can mention their religious affiliation and where they can optionally state how they feel about the church.

Doing this does not just give a higher rate in a profile's detailedness, but it can be also helpful to give other members a good impression of them. For a more successful dating experience, one's profile information has to be true and honest.

App

There is no available mobile app for LDS Planet.

Real Life Review

Having been able to sign-up for an LDS Planet basic account, I was able to observe several things, both good and not-so-good. It is good to see a dating site with this kind of set-up. LDS Planet focuses only on a certain religious community, which is the Mormons. Members of the LDS Church are known for their more personal kind of evangelism. They tend to go and visit places and people, but only for church-related missions. If a single Mormon has a hectic and time-consuming daily routine, it would be a challenge for him or her to meet someone new and go on a date. That is why I am elated because these singles can now possibly meet people in the comfort of their home. There is no reason for new users to be overwhelmed because of its plain computer display. Alongside the beauty of its purpose, it is easy to use as well. LDS Planet is truly one of the best, online dating site for single Mormons.

Design and Usability

Generally speaking, the design of LDS Planet is actually really nice. It is more on the simple and uncomplicated side. The site is not hard to navigate and not difficult to be familiarized with. The overall theme is appropriate for the target people group, which are single LDS church members. The used color combinations and orderliness of the texts reflect the kind the propriety that Mormons have. The site does not contain any promotional advertisements. It is basically a user-friendly dating site. The straightforward web design of LDS Planet makes more and more single Mormons encouraged to join the online dating community. LDS Planet is a mix of simplicity and functionality.

Editors Conclusion

If you are single and belong to a certain sect or religion, finding a partner that has your same belief can sometimes be challenging because people have a lot of differences, and those differences play a big role in a relationship. Good thing, there is an online dating app, like LDS Planet, which helps single Mormons find their perfect match. On the other hand, to access all of this dating site's features, one must be a paying member. This is because features are limited for basic users. One of the several features which is reserved for plan subscribers is unlimited sending and receiving of messages. But even though messaging needs a subscription, LDS Planet members can still connect and interact with other users by liking and commenting on photos, which are also effective means of getting messages across.With that, LDS Planet will certainly be a way for single members of the LDS Church to find and eventually meet their compatible match.
