Problem
Many dating apps on the market cater to a broad audience and tend to have a neutral, minimalist interface. This approach often falls flat for extroverts who thrive in lively, energetic, and expressive environments. Other app designs feel basic and generic, creating a dull user experience that doesn't engage or excite extroverted users who crave vibrancy and confidence.
Solution
To solve this, we created a dating app with a bold, funky identity designed explicitly for extroverts. The interface is filled with vibrant colors, dynamic animations, and interactive features like flash meetups, group chats, and video introductions that emphasize real-time interactions.

Moodboard
Colors
We chose a bold color palette with bright tones like electric blue, vibrant orange, and neon pink to evoke excitement and confidence. These colors reflect the lively nature of extroverts, ensuring the app is visually stimulating and engaging.
Patterns
We incorporated diverse patterns that change with each card, allowing users to personalize their experience and feel a sense of belonging across different genres. Users can easily modify their mood boards to reflect their current vibes and self-expression.
Typography
A bold sans serif typography conveys a modern and approachable feel. This clean, straightforward font enhances readability while reflecting extroverted users' confident, lively personalities.

Interface
Grids & Proximity
Consistent spacing and margins are crucial to creating a balanced layout that enhances usability and visual appeal. This thoughtful use of grids and proximity ensures that elements are organized, allowing users to feel consistency across the application.
Iconography
We wanted users to connect with real-life examples, so we picked up an icon library that resonates with real-world emotions. This approach enhances the user experience and ensures that future designs can adapt while maintaining a cohesive visual theme.
Micro Animations
Incorporating micro animations into the interface enhances user engagement and provides visual feedback during interactions.
