Due to the increasing rate of urbanization and digitalization elements such as relationships are undergoing severe transformations. Unlike in the olden days where parents found suitors for their children, today, perfect matches are only a swipe away. Current dating sites have redefined the methods people get to meet with each other. Apart from meeting their perfect matches, individuals expect their information to be kept private since most people do not like displaying their personal lives. Often, dating app uses complex algorithms used to match which connect its users based on similar answers on a questionnaire. This research paper seeks to provide twenty steps which can be used to match individuals looking for friends and romantic relations.
Match Percentages
In the dating app, I will create and include match percentages which will calculate the rate as to which users suit each other. The match percentage will be based on the answers of how users would like people to answer a particular question and the significance of the issue to them.
Geolocation Aspect
The dating app I will create and use GPS components to locate and connect individuals in similar locations. The moment subscribed users open the app; they will be notified about other users who are within their radius. To ensure a full market, the GPS will be able to locate individuals around the globe.
Game Theory
To ensure seriousness, I will eliminate all individuals who go about liking other users' profiles and begin to discriminate them after they are matched.
Integration with Social Networks
I will include a feature which links the app with users' accounts on Facebook and Instagram. That way, more information about them will be displayed on the app, therefore, making it easier to match individuals.
User Profile
Users will have to set up their profiles right away since it is the most important feature which will help the app identify their preferences, therefore, finding the perfect matches.
Offer Excellent Response to Time
To ensure the success of the app, I will make sure users get their matches as soon as possible as they create their profiles.
Deliver an Acceptable Range of Probable Matches
To pursue such prospects, I will incorporate high technology developments such as video chats and photo-realistic avatars.
Use of Double Takes to Find Potential Matches
The app will be presenting a photo of one user at a time the rest of the individuals will either like the picture or pass. Those who like will be analyzed if at all they match with the individual whose photo is presented.
