Details

Swerv is a groundbreaking dating platform designed to reconnect people in real-world settings, countering the impersonal nature of traditional dating apps. The project aims to enhance user engagement by integrating innovative features that encourage spontaneous, in-person interactions. The challenge is to design a user-friendly interface that seamlessly blends digital and physical experiences, fostering genuine connections. Learners will analyze current dating app trends, identify user pain points, and propose solutions that align with Swerv's mission.

Swerv is an innovative new platform completely redesigned to help people go back to meeting in the wild, instead of in an app. The founder was a pioneer to the mobile industry, creating one of the first mobile dating sites to enter the US market back in 2004, that later directly led to the creation of Tinder in 2012.
Our vision is to repair the damage traditional dating apps have taken on the dating culture by providing a new way for people to connect organically, out in the wild.
