Online dating is a bit like a shopping list; we’re often faced with an overwhelming plethora of choices about what to do, where to go, and what to wear – let alone finding somebody to date. In the hustle and bustle of Shoreditch, crossing paths with somebody who catches your eye is often untimely, or way too daunting to walk over out of the blue and introduce yourself. To ease the pressure of making that first move, there’s a bunch of dating apps to choose from – each with a unique twist in helping you find love online. Namely, one that keeps popping up, is Tinder. Tinder is notorious for it’s hot or not hook-up model, but local dating app TrueView is out to put Tinder in the bin-der and teach you that it’s less about what you look like, and more about showing who you truly are.
Shoreditch start-up TrueView generates matches through your interests, so whether you’re heading off to a meeting in the Tea Building or kicking back at Boxpark, log it on TrueView and soon enough, you’ll be chatting about your activities with people nearby. Andrew, co-founder of TrueView says: “There’s plenty of dating apps out there and it’s not a case of one-size-fits-all, so for us, our approach might not suit everybody, but we feel that we offer an honest platform for people who are looking for a meaningful relationship.” TrueView has already taken the Shoreditch dating scene by storm by making it easier for east London singletons to introduce themselves to those that catch their eye whilst out and about.
Here’s 5 reasons why we think TrueView kicks ass
TrueView recently hit the streets to find out what people really think of Tinder. Sarah, 25, who works in Fashion says:
“A lot of my friends have used Tinder and admittedly, I have tinkered with it a few times out of curiosity. I get why a lot of people are raving over it, because it’s addictive, but for somebody like myself who’s looking for something more meaningful than a hook-up app, it just doesn’t appeal to me.”
Here’s what Josh, 28, who works in Media had to say about it:
“I think ultimately, I would consider Tinder as more of a game than a serious place to meet somebody. It’s a hot or not game and being single, I think it’s pretty fun to see where the swiping takes you!”
So, if Tinder isn’t hitting the mark for you; check-in to TrueView, check-out who’s taken a shine to you and get the conversation flowing!
