Two kinds of open
Forget Dinner vs Feeld: Find Your Kind of Open
Feeld is made for the open-minded and for couples. Forget Dinner is a plain casual dating site. Here is how that plays out.
Feeld suits you if you want an app made for open-minded people and couples, with Desires, linked profiles and a vocabulary of its own. Forget Dinner suits you if you want a straightforward casual dating site in your browser, where one line on your profile says what you are after.
Feeld’s app has been on the App Store since 2014, and its maker, Feeld Ltd, is registered in England and Wales. What this page says about Feeld comes from Feeld’s own pages and its store listing, as they stood on 16 October 2026. Feeld has a clear idea, and the only question is whether the idea is yours.
Feeld in its own words
What do Desires, Pings and Connections mean on Feeld?
Feeld has a vocabulary of its own, and it is part of the appeal. These are the working terms, as Feeld explained them on 16 October 2026.
- Desires and Interests
- Lists on your profile where you say what you are into, in and out of the bedroom. Majestic members can filter by Desires.
- Connection
- What a mutual Like becomes. Chat opens from your Connections screen only once you both Like.
- Ping
- A bolder first move that carries a personal note. Feeld likens a Like to catching someone’s eye across a bar and a Ping to walking over to say hello.
- Uplift
- A 24-hour visibility boost you can buy, which puts your profile near the front of Discover.
- Majestic
- Feeld’s paid membership, shown as a red M on a profile. It adds seeing who liked you, Incognito mode, private photos and unlimited Likes.
- Incognito
- Hides your profile until you choose to Like someone. Anyone can hide from Discover, but Incognito belongs to Majestic.
- Paired profile
- Links your profile with up to five other members, so partners or friends can explore together. Group chats sit alongside.
- Glossary
- Feeld’s site defines more than 100 terms across desires, genders, sexual identities and kinds of arrangement, and in the app you can tap and hold an option to see what it means.
Forget Dinner’s own vocabulary would fit on a menu card: three tiers (Classic, VIP and VIP Plus) and two add-ons (Boost and Super Match). Whether that feels restful or a touch beige is a matter of taste.
