One of its very interesting main features is that this app was created by a wedding company. However, the application is not intended to make people get married, but with the objective of getting to know each other.
Interestingly, although ZEXY KOIMUSUBI is not geared towards marriage, it is a well-known app for its success in dating and subsequent marriages.
5 - MATCHALARM
This app is not here for its success, but for how it works. Over time, this app was unfortunately discontinued. However, what catches your attention the most is its operation.
This app was available only in Japanese. And at a specific time daily at 8 o'clock in the morning, it sent a message (alarm) to the user notifying about someone it recommended.
Also, as was done in other apps, MATCHALARM also collected your information from the Facebook app to try to find people closer to you and with your preferences regarding women and men.
And after the alarm was sounded, the ringer had to be answered within 16 hours. If that person did not respond, he disregarded the person who recommended him.
6 - PAIRS
PAIRS is known for being a very secure app, and the app also uses Facebook as a source to set up the following user's profile. The app has become a popular choice among those looking for long-term commitments. And for the vast majority of people on this app, they seem real and sincere, showing they are looking for serious relationships and love.
The 'design' and aesthetics of the app are particularly appealing to women who wish to date “on-line”, something that is not so common among Japanese apps.
As is done on Taplle, their service is completely free for those female members. Those male members can create their profile for free, but they must submit a monthly fee to message the girls of their interest. This app is fully official in the Japanese language.
7 - BUMBLE
Also a dating app like the other apps before. However, this application has its difference, it has three options such as wanting just a relationship, just friendship for those who like to meet new people and the option to choose both modes.
Also in this application, you can get in touch with different people around the world, thus translating what the person says on the other side.
8 - CROSSME
This app is quite different from the others, as with CROSSME you can find people who use the same app near you, when you cross paths with someone who has the app, it will notify you that you have encountered or passed near a user, or that person you or they are interested in. Showing their profile and the distance in meters from them to you.
