Doodle is fine for dates.
Beement does everything else too.
Find the right date, pick a venue, split costs, and chat, all in one app. No account required for guests. Free.
Why switch from Doodle?
Doodle went freemium
Doodle's free plan now shows ads, limits advanced features, and pushes paid upgrades. For something as simple as a date poll, it feels like overkill.

Doodle only does scheduling
After you find a date in Doodle, you're back to WhatsApp for chat, Tricount for expenses, and email for logistics. Beement handles it all in one place.
No context around the event
Doodle gives you a date. Beement gives you a full moment: the date, the location, the group chat, the shared expenses, everything linked.
