VyByN matches you on what truly matters — personality, values, and emotional compatibility. Not just photos.
A dating app built around compatibility and verified identity, not endless swiping.
Our compatibility engine scores personality, values, communication style and relationship goals, and shows you the breakdown behind every match rather than hiding it.
Government photo ID verification through Stripe Identity, so a verified badge means a real, checked identity. Verification is optional and always user-initiated.
Every uploaded photo is screened automatically before it appears. Reports go to a staffed review queue, with child-safety and exploitation reports handled the same day.
Conversation starters generated from what you and your match actually have in common, so the first message is not "hey".
Call your matches inside the app without exchanging phone numbers. Free accounts get a 30-second preview; paid memberships are unlimited.
Real-time, round-based video sessions. Meet several people in one evening and carry forward only the ones you both want to keep talking to.
Interest-based groups with owner-hosted live streams, plus in-person and virtual events. Meet through shared experiences instead of a profile grid.
Share your live location with a trusted contact for the duration of a first date, with in-app safety guidance built into the flow.
Daily swipe limits, dating-fatigue checks and wellness tools. We would rather you meet someone and leave than scroll forever.
VyByN is free to use. Paid memberships are optional monthly subscriptions that renew automatically until cancelled.
Memberships are monthly auto-renewing subscriptions. Bought inside the iOS app they are processed by Apple In-App Purchase; inside the Android app, by Google Play Billing. Subscriptions are not sold on the web. Prices above are in US dollars. Aside from subscriptions, the only other things you can pay for are Date Funds and paid group access, both paid inside the app — there is no pay-per-message, no credit-based chat and no adult content.
You can cancel at any time and keep access until the end of the paid period. Subscriptions are bought in the app, so refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their own policies. Payments made inside the app by card, such as Date Funds, are covered by our refund policy.
VyByN is available in the United States and is restricted to adults aged 18 and over. See our Terms of Service, Acceptable Use Policy and Privacy Policy.
Your account and messages are encrypted in transit and at rest. Content you report is reviewed by our moderation team.
