The short version

  • Only Thursday has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: OurTime seeing who liked you requires the Premium subscription; Thursday thursday's own App Store listing is now published as 'Thursday Events' by Honeypot Dating Ltd, pivoting the app's stated purpose to city-specific event listings and ticketing rather than the original matching/waitlist dating app, per the developer's own description.
  • They diverge on capability: OurTime covers Easy Interface, Thursday covers Thursday-Only Access.
