This dating app lets you browse without the chance of running into someone you know

GENIUS.

Finally!

Be honest; do you tailor your Tinder profile based on who might see it rather than the people you want to see it?

We’re talking the people you really don’t want to run into on there – your boss, a relative, your ex.

You leave out your thirstiest selfies for fear that one of these people will see it and judge you.

Now, finally, there’s a better way.

A new dating app that ensures no-one you know will see you (unless you want them to) has just launched and we are super intrigued.

Pickable lets women browse potential matches’ profiles, just like on other dating apps, but without having to put up any photos, bio or name themselves.

Once a woman sees someone she likes, she can request to chat to him. The guy then gets to see a photo of her and can choose to accept or deny her request.

If he accepts, either he or she can write to one another.

It’s not the first dating app to give women the power but has the advantage of more anonymity than other dating apps.

It also takes a lot of the effort out – just one photo and no long bios, encouraging users to just get talking and find out more about each another.

Currently, Pickable only matches people who identify as either men or women but its makers say that an LGBT version is in the works.

If, like us, you have Tinder fatigue this definitely sounds like something worth trying out.
