Men! New dating app strictly by invitation only

Darpan News Desk IANS, 14 Jun, 2014 12:12 PM

    For all the men out there vying for female attention online, the going may get tougher with a new app.

    This app would first like you to match up with the girl you are looking to date.

    Women can join the new dating app, called Wyldfire, free but men can only be invited by an existing female user.

    The baseline criteria for invitees likely includes "unlikely to send dick pics" and "not interested in dating personally," media reports said.

    The idea to create this unique app came to its founders Brian Freeman and Andrew White after detailed discussions with close female friends and surveying hundreds of women on their dating app experiences.

    "We cannot tell what women want. So we hired women to implement right features," White was quoted as saying.

    In the new app, female users will be shown potential matches but they will not know who actually deemed them dateable.

    Wyldfire confirms vague eligibility and will highlight mutual connections if both users have joined through Facebook.

    The app limits messages to 20 to encourage matches to move offline, reports added.
