Why Eternity?

Dating apps suck. If you are tired of using these dating apps that keep disappointing you with meaningless matches, conversations, are ‘pay to win’ and are filled with disingenuous people then you’ve come to the right place!

A new kind of serious “dating” app. We are the first ever app to remove all bias & prejudice and are tailor-made for serious relationships. No more judging a book by its cover. Judge them by their personality and them as a whole. Our features allow you to do just that.

Tell your story. You can’t judge a book by its cover. That's why we ask you to answer writing prompts that help you express your personality and yourself as a whole during signup. Everyone will get the same writing prompts. Your profile picture is only shown after a match is made, removing the bias and prejudice the dating apps nowadays have.

Listen to their story. Not a reader? Reading is no longer an obstacle. Voice is a powerful medium to not only tell your story but to also connect with someone on an emotional human level which is why it is part of every profile. We ask you to record as part of every writing prompt.

All profiles fully reviewed & verified by a human We carefully review and verify every new signup before showing it on the app. This ensures that you'll find the most genuine people who are on the same journey as you. R.I.P. catfishing

Express your affection. No more swiping. Always wanted a ‘maybe’ option? We got you something better. Affection is not just a ‘yes’ or ‘no’. This is why we ask you to express, on a scale, how much you like someone to find you a better match.

Full Privacy; No Prejudice. Your personal information and pictures are only revealed after you match. Not only does this protect your privacy but also eliminates any kind of prejudice and bias.

Meaningful conversation starters. First impressions matter the most. We make you both answer an icebreaker question first when you match as a way to start the conversation, leading to something more meaningful.

Meaningful conversations. Chat status and streaks make conversations engaging and meaningful. Emoji sliders enable you to express the intensity of your emotions. Express your emotions through your voice with voice notes.

The Sign Up (MVP)
Social networking apps and especially dating apps require a certain threshold of users before they can be of value, so we launched the sign up and waitlist first.
