The app is designed for the nature-lovers of the world, with users signing up for the app based on the different activities that they enjoy en plein air. While even [targeted dating apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adventurefocused-social-platform) aren't new, what sets LuvByrd apart from these other services is its [live meetups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/connection-app). The app sponsors [in-person get-togethers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/offline-dating-experiences) to help users meet each other face-to-face. For instance, LuvByrd is hosting a 'Chairlift Speed Dating' event during which people get randomly matched with one another while heading up the mountain and can ski down together. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 26% | Activity: 29% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Romance](https://www.trendhunter.com/romance) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Outdoorsy Dating:** Opportunity to create more dating apps that cater to specific interests and hobbies such as hiking, camping, fishing, and more. - **Targeted Meetup Apps:** Opportunity for more apps with live meetups and in-person events to facilitate face-to-face meetings between like-minded individuals. - **Outdoor Activity Social Networks:** Opportunity to create social networks that connect outdoor enthusiasts with individuals with similar interests. ### Where This Applies - **Dating Apps:** Opportunity for dating app developers to penetrate niche markets and cater to specific interests and hobbies. - **Event Planning:** Opportunity for event planners to create unique experiences for like-minded individuals with similar interests and hobbies. - **Social Networking:** Opportunity for social networking platforms to connect outdoor enthusiasts with individuals with similar interests. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dating App-Supported Fitness Events](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surf-dating.md) - [Curated Professional Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxy-dating-service.md) - [Date Planning Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/date-planning-app.md) - [Dating App Personality Showcases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wudya.md) - [Real-World Connection Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dayone-irl-dating-app.md) - [Meaningful Connection-Driven Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moonlight-dating-app.md) - [Romantic Getaway Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lovu.md) - [Real-Life Connection Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/offlinery.md) - [Restaurant-Collaborating Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frome-dating-app.md)
