Tinder по-русски: московские студенты представили отечественный аналог ушедшему приложению

The "Blizko" application was presented specifically for Valentine's Day by MAI masters

A group of master's students from the Moscow Aviation Institute (MAI) has developed an innovative mobile application called "Blizko." This domestic development aims to replace Tinder-style dating, [the American application left Russia in July last year due to sanctions and announced the cessation of full access in Belarus from tomorrow, — editor's note], providing an opportunity to meet people nearby.

Imagine you are in a park, shopping center, at an exhibition, concert, or any other place, and you want to meet someone nearby right now. Finding interesting people and taking the first step online is easier than in person. Our application will help with this.

In the application, the user can view profiles of people within a radius of one kilometer and express their interest by liking or sending the first message. Communication takes place in a chat, and if mutual interest persists, users can decide to meet.

What makes the "Blizko" application unique among its analogues is the dynamic profile update functionality. It allows the application to continue searching for interesting candidates for acquaintance even in the background, allowing users to go about their business while the application finds suitable interlocutors.

Currently, a working version of the application is ready, and the team is looking for investors to launch the product on the market. Testing of the "Blizko" application is available for anyone who wants to participate. To do this, you need to contact the developers by writing to them on Telegram.
