New dating app feature designed to keep singles safe

Dating app Plenty of Fish has launched a new feature that allows members to let their loved ones know who, when, and where they are meeting dates, keeping everyone in the loop on their plans. The new feature comes after research reveals that one of the main concerns a third of single Brits (33%) have around dating is the prospect of meeting someone they don’t know.

One in five (19%) already opt to share the details of their dates with family and friends in advance in a bid to date sensibly, rising to one in four amongst single women (25%).

The introduction of Share My Date helps singles feel safe and supported as they take their online dating journeys offline. Members can outline details of upcoming in-person dates by adding their date’s name, time and place of meeting, and any notes about what they will be doing on the date via a simple in-app form that can be shared with trusted contacts in one easy click.
