Our full review
The French cult app AdopteUnMec launched in Spain as AdoptaUnChico and now hosts more than a million users. Women browse a 'shopping cart' of men and initiate every contact, which flips the usual dynamic.
It is free for women and paid for men, which produces an unusually balanced gender ratio compared with mainstream apps. The tone is playful, tongue-in-cheek and welcoming.
The verdict
A refreshing option for women tired of unsolicited messages, and for men who don't mind paying to skip them.

- ✓ French origin — huge in Barcelona
