Wyldfire is trying something similar but it's just so hard to build network effects for these to succeed. That said, I like the idea of "sitting back and relaxing" as their site copy describes.
There are several other dating apps in this collection.
@rrhoover The network effect is a real concern. I am curious to see how people respond to Instagram photos instead of FB photos. I wonder if a more curated, filtered online existence will influence women to reach out more to good photos instead of people :P
@rrhoover@bosefina Interesting! I filter FB photos way more than I do IG. #doingitwrong. +1 to IG's editing - so happy when they added the "pro" sliders on top of just filters.
MyCuteFriend has a similar dynamic too. I'm a little scared of: "The main profile picture is a here and now, time-stamped selfie so you will know it’s not out-of-date." Combined with the map, it makes me think this supposed to foster meet-right-now style dates, but I'm not sure.
@maiab lots of people seem to use old/outdated pics when they were thinner/more tan/more attractive/etc. I presume this is intended to make the promise of the photo more likely to pan out.
Curious: Antidate [removes] the male gaze component altogether. Female users are “hidden” on the site, leaving only male users visible. Ergo, women are then encouraged to make the first move."
