Contestants in Love Is Blind usually spend about 10 days total in the pods, doing back‑to‑back “speed dates” that get longer as they narrow down their favorites.

Pod time basics

  • Most former cast members and producers describe the pod phase as roughly 8–10 days before proposals happen.
  • Day 1 is structured like speed dating with very short chats (around 7–15 minutes) with everyone, then dates lengthen over the next days as people focus on a smaller group.

How their days look

  • Contestants are not literally locked in a pod all day; they move between living spaces and the pods but spend many hours dating daily, often late into the night.
  • Across the pod phase they can rack up around 20 or so dates, with later conversations lasting several hours, which is why relationships feel so intense so fast.
