This inclusive dating app is not just for disability dating, but for anyone who desires to go beyond looks and find matches based on shared interests and lifestyles. Glimmer hopes to create a more transparent environment within the mobile and online dating space.
Providing an alternative to snap judgement-encouraging platforms like Tinder and Bumble, the Glimmer app makes it easier to disclose disabilities. Users have the option of selecting, deselecting, hiding or showing disabilities. The disability dating app aims to set itself apart with custom filters that helps users find more specific matches. Compatible with iOS and Android devices, Glimmer caters to those looking for long-term love as well as platonic friendship. Some of its features include real-time chat, unlimited likes, unlikes and reverts as well as Facebook sign up.
