About eHarmony

eHarmony uses a comprehensive compatibility matching system based on 32 dimensions of personality and relationship science. New members complete a detailed questionnaire, and the algorithm surfaces highly compatible matches rather than a large pool of random profiles. This makes it slower-paced but more intentional than swipe apps. eHarmony is best suited for people who are serious about finding a lasting relationship and are willing to invest time in the process.

About Happn

Happn is a French-born dating app with a unique concept: it shows you profiles of people you have physically crossed paths with during the day, using real-time GPS. If two users have been near each other, they appear in each other's timelines. Both users can 'like' each other — if it's mutual, they can chat. This makes Happn feel more organic than algorithmic swiping, as matches are people who actually exist in your daily world. Happn is especially popular in European cities including Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels, and Berlin, with over 100 million downloads worldwide.
