Why we built it

Tired of explaining yourself on every first date.

Arabs in the US and Canada trace their families to more than twenty countries, and many grew up between two cultures. Mainstream dating apps leave that out, and the ones made for the community tend to center religion. HeyArab is for people whose culture is part of who they are, whatever their faith.

It’s made by a very small team from this community. So the app starts from what’s shared: food, family, music, the way home sounds. One prompt asks for “my teta’s dish I’d never admit I like better than my mom’s.”

We want it to be the first dating app people here would show their parents.

What makes it different

  1. 01

    Prompts in our own words

    Questions about family, food and home, with the dialect words people really use.

  2. 02

    Vouches from friends

    The people who know you can put in a good word, the way a cousin would.

  3. 03

    Faces checked

    Verified profiles are matched to a live selfie.

  4. 04

    Hidden from people you know

    Members can hide their profile from everyone in their phone contacts.

  5. 05

    Words you never want to see

    Likes that use them go to a separate pile, never the inbox.

  6. 06

    No vanity numbers

    Your profile shows no view or like counts.

  • Discover, with the headline Someone who already gets it
  • A profile with prompts and hot takes
  • A like that carries a note
  • A pick from a sister, sent through matchmakers
  • Mabrouk, a new match
  • A voice note on a like
  • Calls that open when both people say yes
  • Privacy settings, including hiding from contacts
