Friends With Tag Is A New Friendship Matchmaker App

People with friends live longer. That’s just a fact.

But as we increasingly relocate for work and education it’s becoming harder and harder to maintain a healthy, life-sustaining network of chums to hang out with.

You’re all likely to move to a new place at least once in your life, whether for college, a promotion, or to be closer to an Ikea.

Facebook is one way of finding new people in your area, but it’s a blunt instrument. All it tells you is who likes commenting on Facebook – not who you have the most in common with.

Or there’s Tinder, but that’s for dating. Nobody swipes right on somebody looking for platonic fun.

That’s why FriendsWithTag is your best route into a social life.

All you need to do after installing the app is fill out a quick questionnaire about yourself – your likes, dislikes, hobbies, what you do for work, and so on. You can also add pictures, and disclose your geographical location.

FriendsWithTag then takes that information and runs it through its clever custom algorithm to match you with other FriendsWithTag users in the area. Not only that, but it can even tell you how much of a match you are in handy percentage form.

Plus, the app comes with a housing feature. This allows you to find out whether anybody has rooms to rent locally, meaning you can find not only the ideal friend but the ideal roommate too.

You can reach out to prospective friends and landlords via the FriendsWithTag’s own chat feature, which also allows you to send photos, emojis, and audio clips.

FriendsWithTag is available to download for free right now on Google Play and the App Store.
