The advent of technology has revolutionized our modes of communication and connections, introducing apps like Tinder or Fruitz that enable us to meet new people and potentially find our life partners. There is a plethora of apps designed for this purpose, catering to specific groups within society. One such app is Freakit, tailored for individuals who identify as geeks, where they can connect with like-minded individuals and share their passions.
The term ‘geek’ has undergone a transformation over time, with society previously using it to ridicule or label others as peculiar. While this trend has diminished today, occasional inappropriate remarks can still be heard towards individuals who simply embrace and enjoy their passions to the fullest. While being labeled as a geek may not garner you many ‘likes’ on other dating apps, there’s no need to worry, as those individuals are missing out. Instead, embrace Freakit to find your perfect match and revel in the joy of sharing experiences such as watching anime, playing video games, or attending conferences related to these topics.
Freakit is the ideal app for geeks
Freakit, despite being geared towards fans of the geek world, shares similarities with Tinder in terms of its purpose. However, its approach is distinct as it prioritizes showcasing personality rather than relying solely on physical appearance when establishing friendships or relationships.
Upon downloading the app, users are required to register using their Google account. Subsequently, they provide their date of birth, gender, and specify their preferences (although the latter is optional). Users are also asked to indicate their sexual preferences when seeking a partner. The most enjoyable part of Freakit awaits thereafter.
To start, users must complete a personality test, which will assign them an anime character whose personality aligns with their own. This character becomes an avatar, serving as the first impression for others, emphasizing the importance of honesty and authenticity in one’s description. Lastly, users select their six primary interests, upload profile photos, grant location access to the app, and they’re good to go.
With these steps completed, users can commence their quest to find their geeky love by tapping the blue peach to express interest or the purple broken peach to move on to the next profile. Whether you’re an otaku, gamer, or cosplayer, Freakit provides a judgment-free space where you can embrace your passions to the fullest and discover someone truly special.
The only drawback of the application
It’s important to note that Freakit has been developed by a small team consisting of only two individuals, both of whom are striving to provide a safe space for geeks. As a result, occasional malfunctions or issues may arise, but it’s understandable given the limited resources available to them.
However, despite its small team, Freakit is a fun and comprehensive application with one limitation: it is currently only available in Spain. This means that if you travel abroad, it’s unlikely that you’ll come across someone to connect with through the app. While this limitation may restrict the experience for international users, it shouldn’t detract from the overall enjoyment. We encourage you to give it a try if you’re a fan of the geek world in all its aspects and find yourself in Spain.
