Overview
Feeld is a dating and social networking app built for people exploring ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, casual sex, kink, and swinging. Unlike mainstream apps that default to monogamous pairings, Feeld lets users create profiles as individuals or as a couple through its Shared Profiles feature. The app also supports Group Chats for multi-person conversations and offers Incognito mode for discreet browsing. A 2019 New York Times report found that more than a third of users join with a partner, and 45% identify as something other than heterosexual.
Launched worldwide in July 2014 as 3nder, the app rebranded to Feeld in 2016 after a trademark dispute with Tinder. By August 2016, it had surpassed 1.6 million iOS downloads and was facilitating 10 million connections per month. Major interface redesigns arrived in December 2017, August 2022, and December 2023, each refining navigation and visual design. The app is developed by Feeld Ltd., an independent remote-first startup founded in 2014 by Bulgarian-born designer Dimo Trifonov.
