Brief overview of a novel dating app

This gist provides an overview of ideas for a novel dating app.

When my co-founder and I dissolved our company for legal reasons unrelated to the viability of this app, we decided to give each other permission to promote our app's ideas, so that someone could use and improve our ideas, and make something that helps others.

We received a lot of positive feedback from our testers and strangers. People were excited. If you find these ideas useful, please feel free to use and/or build off of them.

Target Audience

This app wasn't intended to replace popular dating apps. Our mission was to nurture healthy relationships, and we were focused on a niche of users who were interested in deeper, authentic human connection. We found that people interested in mental health were often interested in our app, but I imagine there are more niches that this app would fit with too (for example, spiritual).
