Show HN: I built an app to help you get dating advice and learn how to flirt

https://howtoflirt.co/
1•ivandrag•13h ago
Hey everyone, I want to show you my iOS app. For the past 8 months I worked on this revamp and the app was approved on the App Store two days ago on the first go.

How did I come up with the idea?

Last year while I was looking for a new app to build I found lots of Reddit posts where people were asking about "How to practice flirting" or "How to flirt". Most of the posts had a ton of engagement and I thought that it might be a good opportunity to build an app which helps people with this problem.

The first version of the app was not great, but I got 4 customers and made $94. Two paid monthly and 2 paid for the yearly subscription.

What problem does the app solve?

Online dating apps are "broken". You either get no matches or if you somehow match you are ghosted or you have no clue how to avoid an awkward conversation.

We have to learn how to engage better in offline and online conversations.

How does the app solve the problem?

* There are over 120 structured video & text lessons, each with multiple questions. On each response you receive feedback and if you still have things to clarify you can ask an Ai tutor questions about the lesson. * Real-world scenarios with voice practice. Multiple scenarios like coffee shop meeting or at the dog park etc. You have a goal and some tasks. Don't worry If you get stuck during the conversation, you can ask for hints. During the conversation an Ai analyzes your emotions through your language and at the end of the conversation you will receive a beautiful report which you can use to improve, see strengths or fix your weaknesses. * 3 Daily challenges with different difficulty levels. * Stats screen where you can see progress

I have a ton of ideas on stuff to do in the app, but I ll implement them slowly. Now I'm trying to get feedback from users.

The app is behind a paywall after sign in, because it might have Ai APIs cost. If you feel the subscription is too expensive or cannot afford DM and I'll make your account paid in exchange for feedback ( Make sure you don't hide email when you sign in so I can find you in the db )

Looking forward to your feedback.

Thank you
