𝗡𝗼 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀.

We have taken the decision to close down the Intentions Dating App. Thank you to all who came on this journey with us! We learnt a lot about ourselves and creating software that matters. These lessons will be applied to our other current and future endeavours.

Interested in buying our software? We've done some innovative things! Get in touch with Maritza at https://www.linkedin.com/in/maritzavdh/

For those who are keen to date with intention, check out a few of our favourite dating apps that share our philosophy in some way or another: up-and-coming contenders S'More Date and https://thisislex.app/ and long-time stalwart OkCupid

Writing up some fascinating stats (all aggregated and anonymized!) from a sample of 1, 700 app users from 2019. Only 10% of users set 2 or more red lines at a time, with 80% of users setting no red lines at all.

What does this mean? Hard to say, but perhaps people are keen to know where their differences lie, but don't see difference as a dealbreaker? 🤓
