MEET YOUR FUTURE… TODAY Trueflutter is the dating app for Africans on the continent and in diaspora, looking for more than just a swipe. Our focus is on helping you create organic connections that lead to genuine relationships. There’s more to you than just a cute picture. That's why we've made it easy to build out a profile that reflects your unique personality and truly represents who you are. And when it comes to matching and connecting with people from Lagos, Abuja, Accra, Nairobi, Cape Town, Durban, Luanda, Johannesburg or any other city in Africa, we've taken it a step further by introducing voice intros to make the experience feel authentic and natural, just like it would in real life. Dating should be both enjoyable and meaningful so Trueflutter is designed to be convenient yet require thoughtful effort. What do you want out of your next date? Whether you're looking to date people who meet specific criteria, share a common heritage or simply want to discover someone with aligned values, we’re here to help you do that. For African users in diaspora, Trueflutter stands out as one of the few dating apps with filters that can help you find a match from your home country, if that's your preference. Here's how we help you build meaningful relationships: Express Your Uniqueness: Use audio bios and voice notes to showcase your unique personality and stand out from the crowd. This helps you attract people who are more likely to be compatible matches, especially within the African community. Find Someone Who’s Right for You: Cut through the noise with the help of a powerful, human centric algorithm that understands your preferences and helps you identify potential matches who fit them within the African community. Form Genuine Relationships: Build strong relationships by communicating with tools and features that are intentionally designed to help you foster a close connection with fellow Africans. Every feature on Trueflutter is designed with the singular focus of helping you connect with people you can build a meaningful relationship with, particularly within the African community.

I met someone amazing and I’m truly grateful for this app” - Claire Olatomiwa “Really great app. My favorite thing to do after work is listen to audio bios and send requests to those who make me smile. You guys have made online dating enjoyable again for us Africans” - Michael Coker From Nigeria to Namibia, from Lagos to Lusaka and all across Africa, Trueflutter is a place to find people searching for a committed relationship.

Verdict
Trueflutter and KOMBYE both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of KOMBYE's written reviews are positive against 51% of Trueflutter's. KOMBYE also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 14) and update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). Trueflutter's advantage is ratings volume (3K vs 4). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
