• A French dating app is a hit among those specifically intended for Generation Z, according to our partner L'ADN.

  • Feels owes its success to the fact that it imposes less rules and etiquette, which corresponds to the expectations of a youth who yearns for more relaxation.

While it has just passed the milestone of 100,000 users, it seems that the little French Feels (whom we had already told you about) has found the right formula to

date

Generation Z in a relaxed manner.

Well done @feels_the_app and @YohanBenalouane 😅


Beautiful project, great values ​​and kindness.

Keep it up <3 https://t.co/aC1n6Um3k3

Too cool to match

No more

swipes

and

matches

from traditional dating apps, hello

stories

.

Here, we no longer scroll through the photos taken on the Bali beach or in front of a trendy club, but quirky and sparkling mini-videos.

With its interface similar to that of TikTok or Snapchat, Feels assumes that

swiper

is “fuck ** g boring”.

At issue: bland photos meeting overly restrictive and standardized standards
 So fewer rules and etiquette, and more videos showing Zs dancing in sequined pants with a broom in their hands or playing Twister.

Video + conversation = love

To see if the current is on, the application intended for 17 years and over relies on the winning combo that has made the success of social networks: videos + conversations.

In order to break the ice and reveal his personality, Feels offers to answer a few questions
 What would your

target do

with a million euros won in the lottery?

What activity would he / she like you to do together?

Example answer: launch a new viral choreography on TikTok



You will understand, if you are over 25, Feels is not necessarily for you.
