News & Reviews:   dating app

Meta has announced that it is currently testing age verification tools on Facebook Dating, the dating feature on its Facebook app. The move was made so as to make the platform safer, more age-appropriate and to ensure that all users are 18 years old and above.

So yes, you read that right. There is now a social dating app called Joompa (a pun on the Malay word "Jumpa", duh) and it seems that the app is originated from Singapore. Despite that, the social app can be used globally and it's the "world's first" matchmaking app for Muslims.

With the global pandemic still a threat in many countries, it has become harder for people to date due to the need for maintaining social distancing. That's something Tinder intends to help with, using its new video chat feature. Simply called 'Face to Face', the feature is now in beta in several countries.
