The App That Allows You to Find People You've Crossed Paths With

by Awl Sponsors

Most dating apps simply connect you with potential matches you haven’t met yet. Happn is the only app that connects you with people you’ve already crossed paths with with — people with whom you actually want to risk wasting your time.

Sounds kind of exciting, doesn’t it? Here’s how it works.

Happn uses GPS tracking to present you with a list of people near you. It tells you whether you’ve crossed paths with them once or several times, giving you a map of roughly where you crossed paths, their photos, name, age and profession.

Remember that stunning brunette reading George Saunders at your local coffee shop? The one you’ve been secretly eyeing for weeks? “Like” them secretly with the Heart button: they won’t find out unless the interest is mutual. And if you wish to be noticed, charm them to send them a notification. And if they like you too, you can start a conversation.

Happn also cuts down on the creep factor of other dating apps. People you don’t like will never be able to send you any messages. And if you don’t want to see a person on happn anymore, you just have to click on the “Cross” button.

Happn is a safe and fun way to re-connect with the people you’re interested in. According to The Guardian, “…any pursued partner has the power to accept or reject advances without coercion or scrutiny; rejected suitors are not spurned so much as politely unanswered. Mutually attracted couples can, however, initiate the connection with privacy and without shame.”

So what are you waiting for? Click here to give Happn a shot.
