The target group of UniformDating is single people whose career belong in the military, community service, or law enforcement.
There are about 100,000 members who are active in a week.
There are 23,000 members registered in Singapore.
Majority of the members are male in the age group 35-44 with 35%
The ratio of male to female is 2:1

At first glance, you will notice that most of UniformDating's members just don't have profile pictures. The reason behind is their strict photo verification process. Every photo uploaded into the site is being checked for nudity and other violations. They are just tight in implementing this rule because most of their users belong in the law enforcement and military sector.

This policy makes it harder to pinpoint who the real profiles are from the fake ones. Most of the members are actively replying when sent something. Say, a message or just a gift. However, most members are in autoreply mode. It is another barrier to separate real people from fake ones.

The best you can do is to rely on the information presented on their profiles. Real people who like join for love put effort into making their profiles appear with more personality. On the other hand, fake profiles are almost empty.

How to Sign Up for UniformDating

It only takes a maximum of 2 minutes to complete creating the profile.
You can upload as many photos as possible, but it has to be reviewed by Uniform Dating first before it appears on your profile.
You can get match suggestions by searching.
It requires you to verify your email, make sure to check your spam folder.

Creating an account if you like to join UniformDating is simple. The instructions given are simple and easy to understand. Even the seniors who don't use much computer and internet will be able to follow what the site want him or her to do. UniformDating has included tips and pointers to help along the way if something does not seem to work.

For instance, the email verification. Before you can finish with the registration, you have to verify first that you own the email address and that it works. The site flashes a help message on the pop-up asking the person to check his or her spam folder. It is possible that the email account tags the message as spam just because it came from a social networking type of site.

It also requires the new member to provide some personal details such as Gender. Birthday, postal code, email, and password. For the name, it is highly recommended by the site that you first use your nickname--whatever you like.

Making Contact on UniformDating

Most of the search filters are just available for free except the location.
Aside from searching, you will also have profile recommendations based on your compatibility levels.
A chat, message, and live chat function are available.
You also "flirt" or "wink" to other members aside from giving them gifts for a more interactive experience.
Just the flirting feature is free. To send a message, you must upgrade your membership to full.

UniformDating gives its members several ways to contact each other. Aside from the traditional messaging feature, members can talk to each other via a chat function. There is also a live group chatroom for multiple members. A flirt feature is also available. To use this, you only need to click on "Flirt" beside the heart icon found at the other members' profiles.

Another way of interacting with members is sending of gifts. You can do this in bulk on the search screen. You can also choose to send one gift to only one person. It is your choice. Gifts vary from ice teddy bears, sweets, and food.

The communication options are more than enough for you to find people, but it can only be maximised if you have a paid membership account. Standard or free memberships only offer "flirting" and gifting. Primary communication options such as message, chat, and live group chat needs payment for you to proceed.

UniformDating Profile Quality

It is possible to see all pictures of other members who join without a paid membership.
Some fake profiles like to use fake photos.
There are measures that help against fake profiles or scammers such as email verification.
Most of the other members' profiles are about 50% to 80% complete.
Before sign up, new members must undergo through CAPTCHA to verify that it is a real person and not a bot that is creating a profile.

Basic information such as age, gender, nickname, and location are always found on the profile because it is required during sign up. The only difference is probably the essay type self-description 'About Me' in every profile. There is also the "Appearance and Lifestyle" section where you can tick boxes and answer simple questions to help you describe yourself.

This information is then stored to your profile to enable the "Quiz-Matching" feature. This feature lets members of UniformDating check their compatibility rate to help gauge if you like each other. The more similarities you have with one another, the higher is your compatibility rate.

Even if you do not have a high compatibility rate, the dating site will still let you chat and flirt with one another if you like. Questions about the appearance and lifestyle include hair colour, eye colour, height, build, ethnicity, star sign, profession, income, education, religion, family status, etc.

UniformDating App

The design is clear and appropriate.
The functionalities are simple and intuitive, even more than the website version.
It is free to download in the Apple Store.
The app is only available for Apple phones.
For those who do not have Apple phones but like to join using mobile, they can access the app version by going to m.uniformdating.com

All of the functionalities available in the website version are available for the app version. The only difference is that the app is more compact and easier to use than the website version. Through the app, you can also send messages, chat, and join in live chatrooms. You can also manage your account settings inside the app. Uploading photos are also easier because you can open your phone camera if you want a more updated photo to upload.

You will receive notifications when someone messages you in the app if you are using an Apple device. For Android and other types of devices, the app version is available through m.uniformdating.com. It functions similarly to the Apple version of the app, but you have to access it using an app browser (Safari, Chrome, Browser App, etc.). It also works just as good. The photos of other members also appear to be bigger inside the app--a plus point if you have bad eyes. Profile photos tend to look smaller in the website version unless you click to view the whole profile.

UniformDating Real Life Review

"The first few encounters using UniformDating is fine. The registration went smoothly despite having a few troubles with the email verification. This is entirely my fault because I did not notice the reminder they flashed on the screen while waiting in my inbox. My email verification went straight to the spam folder. I only thought of checking after a few minutes have passed. After that, the checklist happened. It was good that they have a checklist for you to do after you join. It is equivalent to game tutorials when you are a newbie. Of course, you can skip doing the checklist but I chose to do them right away to maximize the experience. Most of my time testing the site went to uploading photos. No matter what photo I upload, my profile picture just does not show. I thought they were having problems at first until I saw help on their FAQ tab that every photo uploaded must undergo verification process before becoming visible to other users. They do this because most of the members belong to the law enforcement community. The FAQ tab is located at the bottom part of the screen. Almost all of the things that you need to know after you join is located there. I also like that I received a lot of messages from beautiful women. However, some of the messages I got were auto-replies from me liking their profiles. Autoreplies can be set up on the left side of the home screen. I did not like auto-replies. I think they are one way to help make you feel that you are not talking to a real person. It just takes away the sincerity and personality of the people inside the website. Nevertheless, UniformDating offers a lot of possibilities for men and women looking to find a relationship inside their career circle. If had been a lawyer, police, or military personnel, I would definitely join UniformDating to look for friends."

Design and Usability

One thing noticeable with UniformDating's design is its overwhelming number of text that appears on the home screen after sign up. It gets better as you fill your profile with more information but there is just a lot of pop-ups and advertisement eats up about 1/4 of the entire screen. Most functionalities are also duplicated, triplicated in different locations.

For instance, the search functions can be found under several tabs of the dating site including home and search itself. It can be a good thing depending on a person's preference. However, it can overwhelm people who are not always using the internet. It also clutters the screen because you see a lot of information at once.

Despite this, the design may match UniformDating's target groups needs. People who belong to law enforcement usually do not have much time and are always on the go. The home screen may have a bit of clutter because it holds so much information, it can be an advantage for people who are always in a hurry like their target group.
