Online dating comes to the iPhone
Dating DNA has announced a full-featured online dating system for the iPhone and iPod Touch.
Just like online dating is shifting away from traditional dating sites such as Match.com and eHarmony to social networks like Facebook and MySpace, so too are many people moving to their cell phones for interacting socially on the Internet.
You can check out Dating DNA (which is free, btw) from a desktop browser (www.datingdna.com) or from Dating DNA’s special iPhone/iPod touch URL (www.datingdna.com/iphone) where you can browse photos and get compatibility scores with thousands of other Dating DNA users.
The Web App allows you to browse users, add them to your “favorite” list (which they call a DNA Strand). CEO Kevin Carmony tells TAC exclusively that they’re working on a native iPhone app that’s “pretty slick.”
We are trying for June’s release, but not sure if we’ll quite make that, but we’re going to try to be soon after…
DatingDNA is currently listed at #1 on AppSafari. You can also read more about the Dating DNA iPhone Web App on Apple’s Web site here.
