Fun App / In Person Event

Recently attended the ivory Peacock for an in person event. Was really fun and turned out to be a great night! Looking forward to what else this app can bring.

Thank you so much for sharing this, it means a lot to us. We’re really happy to hear you had a great night at The Ivory Peacock and that the event was fun for you. We’re just getting started, and feedback like this helps us keep creating more IRL experiences and features you’ll actually be excited to use. Hope to see you at another Chivy event soon!

Not worth it

This app didn’t meet my expectations at all. I get that it’s free so it probably doesn’t have a lot of the features other paid apps have but even in other free apps, you are able to see who liked you. This app doesn’t have this ability. How do I know who has liked me, sent me a message and when I swipe right on someone, how do I contact that person??? It just seems like this app is missing A LOT. Aesthetics-wise, it’s appealing but that’s basically all it has going for it.

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to share such detailed feedback and for giving Chivy a try. Chivy is intentionally designed a bit differently from traditional dating apps, which I realize we did not explain clearly enough in the product. We focused first on safety, high-intent connections, and IRL events, and some familiar “instant gratification” features like seeing everyone who liked you did not make it into the first version. You’re absolutely right that clarity around likes, messages, and what to do after you swipe is critical. We’re actively improving: Clearer notifications and inbox for new likes and messages A more intuitive way to see and respond to people who liked you Better guidance after you match so you know exactly how to move things forward I’m sorry the product felt confusing and incomplete to you, and that’s on us for not communicating our approach better. Feedback like yours directly shapes what we prioritize, so this is genuinely helpful. If you are open to it, I’d love to understand your experience in more detail and share what we’re shipping next. You can reach us at [support email] and we’ll make sure your feedback is reflected in upcoming updates.

Like the “chivalry” = Chivy

This app encourages guys to make the first move, between “Chivy challenges” (act of chivalry) and Chivy stands for chivalry. Im tired of bumble - like the emphasis on being a gentleman again!

Response from developer

Thank you and glad that you like Chivy!

Great app

Love the authentic verification so I know there’s no bots and the variety of events to avoid penpals!

Response from developer

Thank you! We believe in providing a safer environment for users to meet and the value of in person connections in a fun and low pressure environment! The bot problem is extremely prevalent in dating apps so we are so glad to have partnered with CLEAR to stop that on Chivy!

Love - Perfect fix - Was tired of data apps

I was tired of being penpals on dating apps and meeting people who lied about their age and with fake profile. Chivy requires all users to be verified upon onboarding - no fake photos or ages. They also have cool safety features so my friends know I'm on a date. Chivy stands for Chivalry also, which I really like. I'm tired of men that forget it!

A Promising New App

I love the concept of this dating app! Even though it's still relatively new, it’s clear there’s a lot of potential. One of the best features is the fun events happening throughout NYC, which give you the chance to meet people in person in a relaxed, social setting. The setup process was relatively easy, and I especially liked the ID verification feature. It gives me peace of mind knowing that the person I'm matching with is real.

Thank you! We strive to make this the best dating app on the market!

Garbage

no users, buggy app. Fail.

No matches displaced

No matter when I log in, it keeps saying xx number of hours until more matches unlocked. Feels like a scam

Response from developer

We apologize for the experience you have had on Chivy as it is not commonly reported like this. Please reach out to us at support@getchivy.com and we will help any way we can! I can assure you there is no scam, we partnered with Clear to prevent bots, catfishing and bad actors and also moderate our app to actually prevent scams which are so prevalent on other dating apps! Hopefully you can give Chivy another chance!
