There are already plenty of single Sims that have been created. "Random" Sim options should not be generated until the pre-made Sims have been shown. I have been trying for over two hours to get two Sims to match. I'm lucky if 2 or 3 non-random Sims show up as a match (and most aren't even a match). I have Gallery Sims turned off. Kind of ruins story telling if you can't get the two Sims you want together to match.
I'm going to more fully read the guide today because I'm thinking am I expecting too much from it? I feel like it must be going to improve from feedback since it's only in it's infancy.
I was expecting the preferences we can add for things like hair colour to have some influence but it seems not, it's not quite as sophisticated as that. Quickly scanning the guide yesterday I didn't notice any mention of those preferences. So that would explain a lot. But I still need to read it properly.
After a whole afternoon of generating matches and then going to Other Households I think I've put my mind at rest that the app matches aren't always generating new Townies unless my Sim goes on a date with them. So that's a relief. Although I am still getting a lot of new Townies as well, I couldn't tie them all in with Cupid's Corner. So for example, yesterday for the first part of the afternoon I was looking for male matches. Only a couple were in OH but so were a lot of new unrelated 1 female parent/child households.
I do like the Cupid's Counselling. I found that really amusing.
I have the Cupid's Corner background music in my head now and I'm betting it's stuck there lol 🤦.
Community ManagerI found the issue in my game. If the Sim you're trying to match with is, or ever was a Celebrity, they won't show.
Here are the steps I took to get my other Sim to show up in Cupid's Corner (some of these required MC Command Center - check Hero Approved Mods).
1) Made sure she was living alone.
2) Hid the household
3) Made her a Maid
4) Removed her Celebrity left over buffs)
5) Removed her Unstoppable Fame Trait.
Other pre-made Sims showed up normally, so I expect the issue is with Get Famous.
Thoughts?

Just checked with the team on this; celebrities will (as of now) not appear in the Cupid's Corner app by design.
@Ulfric_Grimbrand that's a great idea to keep a testing save, thought I'd best mention it.
I'm going to be starting a new Sim over the weekend and will be seeing if the same thing happens for me with my issue where it generates my Sims but then just stops and doesn't show any more after so many. I'm going to add more singles too in preparation. I'm wondering if I'm just expecting too much from it and if some of my Sims will just have to be in the right place at the right time (which usually involves me getting them to visit their lot and jog past it until they bump into each other 😂).
But I do still like the feature and my original testing Sim has found love on there with a cute doctor. (He left the kleptomaniac trait off his profile but I'll let that be a surprise for her if her Hamster goes missing lol).
But I thought I'd attach some love matches to show what I mean about "random". (There is a bug report for the random accessories and I've added these to it).
