Is the zoosk app free to use for local searches?

Genuine question about the zoosk app free to use for local searches — I do not have a strong view yet and I want one. For regulars here, surprise billing is the whole question with zoosk app free.

If you have used zoosk app free, these are the bits I care about:

• Turn off read receipts on zoosk app free if the point where it starts charging is making you anxious about response times
• Set the radius wider than feels comfortable if the zoosk app free pool near you is thin
• Run zoosk app free beside one other option so you have a baseline for a free tier that is not free
• Give zoosk app free a fortnight of daily use before calling surprise billing a dealbreaker
• Treat your first zoosk app free profile as a draft, because the trial that quietly renews punishes lazy ones
