MyPerson

MyPerson is a Nigerian dating app that focuses on authentic connections through selfie verification, detailed filters for tribe, state, and religion, and 100% naira pricing.

What is MyPerson?

MyPerson is a Nigerian dating app that enables users to find real, verified singles across all 36 states. It takes user preferences such as tribe, state, and religion as input and produces matches that can be explored through chat, voice notes, video calls, and live streaming. The app is a Progressive Web App (PWA) that works on iOS and Android without app store installation. It was built specifically for the Nigerian market, by a local team.
