Questions about Zydeby
Common questions
What is Zydeby?
An app, in your browser and on iPhone, that matches adults for dating, friendship, small groups and mentoring, then plans a first meeting around an activity. There's no chat.
How much does it cost?
It's free for now. The only required charge is ID verification, $4.99, before your first meeting. You pay on the web, even from the iPhone app.
Can I use Zydeby on a computer or an Android phone?
Yes. Zydeby works in any web browser, on a computer or a phone, as well as in the iPhone app. Sign in with Apple or Google and your account is the same everywhere.
Where is Zydeby available?
We're opening in the 50 largest U.S. metro areas. You can join from anywhere and be matched as soon as people near you fit.
Why can't I message my match?
Because the point is to meet. The app shares what you each choose to share and plans the meeting. The conversation happens in person.
How often do I get a match?
One at a time. You have three days to decide. If it's quiet for a while, it's because no one nearby fits yet.
Who sees my answers?
No one. Matches see fit labels by topic, and only the answers you choose to share after you both decide to meet.
What happens when we meet?
You find each other with a code word, a greeting or a matched pair of things to carry. Each of you has one personal question to ask, and you make one small choice together.
Can I change my birthday later?
No. Check it carefully when you sign up. It can't be changed afterward, and members must be 18 or older.
Can married people use Zydeby?
Yes, for friends, group nights and mentoring. The romance side is off for married and partnered members.
What if no one fits me yet?
It's just quiet for a while. Inviting people you know makes matching better for you and everyone near you.
Can I take a break?
Yes. Take a break to stop new matches, or pause your account to hide it. Both are in Settings.
How do I delete my account?
Settings, then Delete my account. It's permanent and immediate.
