The connection gap
People still want connection. The signals have become harder to read.
The goal is not to frighten anyone with statistics. It is to acknowledge what many adults already feel—and build a more respectful way forward.
say the rules feel less clear for men
Most adults said increased attention to harassment made it harder for men to know how to interact on dates.

The provisional U.S. marriage rate in 2023, compared with 10.6 per 1,000 in 1970. First Sight does not claim one cause—we believe real introductions are worth making easier.
CDC/NCHSA clear signal, at the right moment
From nearby to hello in four respectful steps.
- 01
Choose your moment
Start a 30-minute lunch, a one-hour chat, or a four-hour night-out session. You are visible only when you decide to be.
- 02
Confirm you are really nearby
Bluetooth confirms that compatible adults are in the same immediate area. First Sight is about the room you are in, not another city.
- 03
Remove the guesswork
Interest is private unless it is mutual. Icebreaker says you are comfortable being approached. Shy asks the other person to take the lead.
- 04
Look up and meet
Temporary Nearby Chat can help you find each other. End the session when you meet—or whenever you choose.
Data-minimized by design
You are here to meet a person—not become a data product.
Many dating services build lasting server profiles from photos, messages, location, activity, and advertising identifiers. First Sight takes a smaller-data approach: we keep only the limited account, safety, match, and purchase records needed to operate responsibly.
See exactly what First Sight processes →Your profile and photos
Your biography and profile photos remain on your devices and are relayed only for a compatible nearby connection.
Nearby conversation
Nearby Chat is encrypted between devices and is not saved by First Sight as a conversation history.
No ads or data sales
No third-party advertising, no cross-app tracking, and no selling your personal information.
Delete your account
Account deletion is built into the app, along with block, report, and session controls.

We are not trying to keep you hooked.
First Sight has no monthly dating subscription and no infinite swipe feed. A credit is used only after mutual interest creates a match. We would rather help you meet one real person than keep you browsing a thousand profiles.
