Happn

Not safe for kids under 18

Happn is a dating app that tells users if they crossed paths with other users that have the same set preferences (age and gender). Users can upload and browse profile pictures and bio descriptions, including audio clips. If two users like each others’ profiles, they can directly message one another. Sexual/Mature content is likely.
