happn - Local dating app for Android allows you to find who you've bumped into, sending messages and chatting, provided that you've liked each other.

The app to know who you've met and chat with them

One can be for or against downloading apps to flirt through cell phone. But the fact is that they have greatly facilitated (and, paradoxically, dehumanized) human contact. The most famous of these are Tinder or Badoo, but the list is endless... And one that stands out here is happn - meetups and dates.

Flirt thanks to geolocation

This application has more than 40 million users using both Android and iOS. The app works on the basis of geolocation: it recognizes which users are nearby and allows them to send likes or greet each other. Specifically, it works like this:

  • If you meet someone who is registered in the app, their profile will appear on your timeline. You can see if he/she was active a few hours or days ago.
  • In this timeline you will find all the profiles you have encountered throughout the day. You can see when, how often and where (only an approximate indication due to data protection) you met the person.
  • If you like the profile, you can send a secret like (the other person will only know about this if they like you too). Otherwise you can also send a hello so that she gets a notification (but this costs credit).
  • If you like it, that's called a crush. You can now start a conversation via chat.

There is also the CrushTime function. This is a game where you can guess which of the 4 profiles you met sent you a like. It also protects and preserves reciprocity, privacy, user experience and prevents you from getting messages from people you don't like.

love at first sight

The profiles themselves are not very extensive. This means that you can write a text as a description. But the concept is more at first glance with a little snippet of personality: you can see her photos from her Facebook profile (social network you log in with) and other linked accounts like Instagram and Spotify (you can see the Seeing the music tastes of others and knowing if they match yours).

As mentioned, it's a very successful app both in Spain and in other countries. You just have to look at Forocoches (the oracle of Delphi of our time, along with Wikipedia) to read opinions and reviews on how it works, pros and cons.

So if you want to flirt with other people around you then download the APK file. By the way, anyone who is wondering whether happn is also available for the PC will have to be disappointed. You can get an emulator for that though. But what's the point?

Requirements and further information:

  • Minimum operating system requirements: Android 5.0.
  • The app offers in-app purchases.
