Loop is the social network for meeting and matchmaking through friends, events, and communities. On Loop, everyone plays matchmaker for their single friends. Singles can also see who their friends know and ask for intros through the app, removing any social friction and making matchmaking easy. In addition to meeting through friends, people on Loop can meet and matchmake through groups centered around events, locations, professional matchmakers, and other communities. Loop groups for coffee shops, gyms, alumni networks, or parties can help maximize the odds that singles connect with someone who they could have met in real life. Loop is free to download and use. Sign up, indicate if you’re single or just there to set up friends, invite your friends, and start suggesting life changing matches! Our app uses Apple's standard EULA: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
