AFTER A YEAR PLUS OF RESEARCH;

we find there are some Dating Apps with Video functions on the market and this is how they compare.

 

ReelMe

This App allows you to record and upload a video and pictures to create a profile, then swipe right to like                                         another user and left to dislike.

​

Pros

•  user gets to potentially see what other users look like.

•  Sign in through facebook.

​

Cons

•  The recorded video can be years old which makes it a less accurate depiction of the person in the vid.

•  This App will display in its search results user profiles that do not have any recorded profile videos, defeating the purpose  of  the concept.

•  The design is basic and boring and doesn't follow a specific theme.

•  menu system is a bit complicated to use

•  a breeding ground for catfishing

THis App is similar to the rest we have tested in terms of functionality, user uploads videos which are a combined 3 clips that play a showreel, however this app still runs the risk of videos being months or even years old.

What reelyChat does is unique, It addresses issues that other Apps don't.

 

With reelyChat all User profiles will have videos and all videos will be recent and current unlike our competitors. 

​

However just like our competitors Users still requires a match before any communication may take place.
