How to Read Messages on Zoosk For Free

Are you trying to read blurred messages on Zoosk and want to unblur them? Although you can pay a subscription fee or upgrade your membership, there are a few other ways to view the message without paying.

So, if your friend sends you a text and Zoosk blurred it, there’s no need to turn your back on disappointment or impulsively pay for a subscription. You can unblur the message without paying with one of the methods below and take the time to assess whether you really want to upgrade to a premium membership.

Why Do Zoosk Blur Messages?

Zoosk blurring text is a common practice to keep their premium features exclusive to paying members. Not all dating sites that do this require you to pay for a subscription to read the messages they blur. Dating sites like Grindr and POF just want you to drop your email address or sign up for a free membership or a free trial.

Note that the methods below aren’t guaranteed to work perfectly, but you can use them to evaluate if a Zoosk premium membership or subscription is necessary. We do not support bypassing subscriptions which is the means they keep maintaining the website, If you don’t want to use your private email address to create a Zoosk account, we recommend using an email address without phone number verification needed.
