Epalz

The epalz.com app fills an unmet and desperate need worldwide for a safe, dignified and private way to meet new friends, whether it is for friendship, activities or dating. This is 360 degrees different from any dating app you have ever seen.

Our core Principles: PRIVACY | FREEDOM | FRIENDSHIP

PRIVACY: Our app aspires to make sure that those who are seeking friendships or relationships do not have to do that in a glare of publicity, where your neighbour could log into any of the popular dating platforms and figure everything about your love life. In our app, when you login and search for individuals in your region, you will see profiles with blurred photos. So how do you decide who is right for you? You read the description. You try to understand who they are, what they believe in, what are their core principles and what they seek in life. Forget about the "photo-first" corporate dating farms that do not care about respect or relationships. Those who can't spell or write coherently will not be venturing into our app.

Our app does not try to box you into little boxes based on your so called preferences or lifestyle choices. In your descriptions you state what you want to state as long as they follow local laws and rules of decency. We ask your age. But we do not ask your race or nationality, we do not ask your orientation, we do not ask what category of persons you are looking for. In other words, we treat you like an adult. And best of all, we do not use facebook logins.

FREEDOM: Only once two persons on our app make a mutual connection, can they see each other's contact information, this could be skype or whatsapp or an email or whatever you feel is appropriate to reveal. Once this information is revealed, the conversation is taken outside the app and we do not watch or monitor or spy on what you say to each other. This is a crucial difference between us and the big dating farms where they watch and listen to what you say and then use that deeply personal information to 'serve' (more like throw in your face) their odious ads that they make money out of.

FRIENDSHIP: The reason most relationships offline and online fail is that there is no 'friendship foundation' underneath. That is why we do not consider this a dating app. This is a friendship app, and if the friendship grows into something bigger, that is awesome. This is how all great relationships start, and this is how the longest lasting relationships last. Show respect, give space, and be nice, and happiness will come to you before you even know it!

OPERATIONAL DETAILS: The principle is simple.

1)It starts with a search to see who is near by and looking for a friend. Next you check their profile. Here it starts to be different. You see their blurred picture at this point, but their identify is hidden at this point. You get to read their profile information. But their picture and contact info is hidden. Friend.us.com is not a looks-driven app. This app is for people who have enough braincells to describe who they are and what they are and what and who they are looking for.

2) If the description looks interesting to you, you click the 'express interest' button, and send them an expression of interest.

3)This expression of interest FROM YOU shows up in their Inbox. Now they can see your profile ,but still cannot see your picture or your contact information.

4) Now if they reciprocate that expression of interest and CLICK ACCEPT, things change. Now both of you can see each other's full profile and all details and contact information.

5)And the differences do not stop there. Instead of coralling you inside an in-app chat, members get to exchange skype ID or email ID or whatsapp IDs. Now you can communicate freely with each other, instead of in a monitored Orewelian environment.
