Google Android Gets Dating Application

Written by AndroidGuys • Jun 13th, 2008 • Category: Recent News, Software News

As everyone knows, Android applications comes in all shapes and sizes. Just like boys and girls do. They run the entire gamut of genres, ranging from time wasters to time management. Here’s one we’d like to talk about briefly - AroundIs. It’s a location dating application that enable users to:

1. Set simple search criteria on mobile phone (usually age and sex)
2. Leave it alone for a while and the radar will notify you when a possible match comes in your range
3. Chat with him/her in real time from your phone.
4. Exchange contacts and set a date if you like him/her.

What makes it different and powerfull:

* Truly mobile - from your mobile phone
* Truly instant - you can start chatting with the person when he/she gets within the vicinity.
* SMS cost money -AroundIs is a SMS free technology. No need to pay SMSs to service providers.
* SMSs are also slow. Sometimes it takes ages to get the reply. With the location based matching and socializing the time is a factor.
* Secure and discreet application. You can always switch your status to invisible or DND. With the older technologies you never know if the person is available and is able to talk.
* You never know he is available around as well.

Sounds like a good application if you are into these type of things. We can imagine a lot of lonely nerds and fanboys who could use a program like this. Just hang in there for a little while longer. Your next fly honey might come from your Android handset!
