After Facebook Dating, the social networking platform is now testing a video speed dating app called Sparked, which will initially allow 4-minute data for users to find out if they are compatible with each other.
Once the two of you are having a great time, the dates will be set for a period of 10 minutes.
After that, Sparked can have users share contact information and stay in touch via Instagram, iMessage or email, The Verge reported on Tuesday.
Sparked is developed by the in-house NPE (New Product Experimentation) team.
The free app doesn’t offer public profiles, swipes, or direct messages (DMs), just simple video speed chat.
During the sign up process, users need to explain what makes them a friendly dater. The answers will be verified by a human at Sparked before you can enter speed data.
“Users also have to decide if they want to date men, women, or non-binary people and are then asked if they are open to meeting trans people,” the report said.
In 2019, the company launched Facebook Dating in the US and later in various countries including the UK.
The dating app helps users explore potential romantic relationships within their own extended circle of friends.
Facebook also quietly launched a new app last year, just for couples who can connect closely with each other like a personal dating app.
With the Tuned app, couples could share their mood, exchange music via Spotify and create a digital scrapbook.
