It is available for download for the iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch,^[1] as well as, Android devices.^[2] Users can choose to turn their GPS location on or off and browse other users' profiles anonymously. Users can interact with each other by liking each other, sending text and multimedia chat messages, sending gifts, requesting dates using the "On Demand Dating" feature,^[3][4] or setup chat groups or group events using the "Mixers" feature.^[5] Users can also dislike other users which will remove them from future search results.
