Taimi App for LGBTQ+ Dating: Features, Community, and User Experience

If CU students are like their peers all across the country, they share these traits:

  • You are digital natives, meaning you grew up with a device in your hands, along with social media and instant access to information
  • You are a part of the most diverse population thus far – growing up in multiracial, LGBTQ+, and single parent households. You may be LGBTQ+ yourself and quite open about it
  • You may experience higher levels of anxiety but are more likely to seek therapy than generations before you and are more open about seeking it
  • You’re pragmatic and place value on work being meaningful as well as a good work-life balance. Flexible work arrangements, entrepreneurship, and freelancing are attractive
  • You are financially responsible and try to manage your money well
  • You are a part of the most educated generation ever, choosing college but respectful of those who choose trades or gaining certifications to qualify for positions.
  • You’re at least politically aware but may be active as well

Sound like you? And, if you are part of the LGBTQ+ population, do you feel more comfortable being openly so? How about online dating? 68% of your generation has joined at least one online dating platform. 

For the LGBTQ+ community, online dating is attractive because its local dating pool of like-mindeds could be limited or difficult to find. But it can also be “risky business” if they are not careful – there are some low-level “products” out there with plenty of trolls and others out to do harm.

Let us introduce you to the Taimi app, the largest, fully inclusive LGBTA+ dating platform on the planet that is reputable and safe.

All About Taimi

Taimi was launched in 2017, initially as “TameMe,” but due to a copyright issue, had to change the name to Taimi. Originally for gay men, the founders quickly realized their mistake and expanded it to include the entire LGBTQ+ population. Today, there are more than 37 million members and thus a huge dating pool for all gender identities and sexual orientations.

Joining Taimi

Becoming a member involves setting up an account with username and password. Maybe choose a catchy one to attract some attention. Here’s what follows:

  • Create a profile that gives some key info about yourself. This is relatively easy because Taimi gives prompts and asks questions to help. Using those will give you an engaging piece. Adding some “action” photos will help too. Be sure to state your preference(s) for who you are looking for and what type of relationship you seek. This helps Taimi find the right people for you.
  • As soon as this is finished, you will begin to see matches. As they are presented, you swipe left to discard and right to show interest. When two users swipe right on each other, a “match” is made, and they can begin to communicate
  • Taimi has an in-house developed proprietary matching algorithm that tracks its members’ swiping and other public behavior and uses that data to keep refining matches. The more a member uses the app, the more perfect those matches become. 

Safety and Security

Newcomers must provide some personal information to join. To prevent others’ access to it, Taimi uses encryption and the latest SSL and firewall protection. To date, there has never been a breach.

Members have the option to verify their identities via live selfie videos analyzed for authenticity and then facial recognition technology to compare the face in the video with those of profile pics. That verification places a check mark on a user’s profile page. Getting verified and only choosing those who have done the same is just a smart thing to do.

To make certain that all users feel safe, Taimi has a strict code of conduct. It includes such prohibited behavior as bullying, harassing, judgments and such. Violators are swiftly dealt with.

Key Features 

Most of Taimi’s features are free to all users. These include:

  • Communication tools – messaging, phone calls, and video calls all within the app
  • Browsing through profiles that may not have been presented
  • Joining discussion groups based on passions and interests or just for fun. Almost like a mini-social media platform where users can follow other users or create a group of their own 

There are three premium subscriptions available at extremely low prices which provide more features like profile boosts, geolocation, and unlimited swipes. Free members can purchase these for short periods on an a la carte basis.

Community Environment

The ton of groups that members can join for all kinds of purposes is just the beginning of Taimi’s commitment to setting a community atmosphere that pervades the entire platform. There seems to be an unspoken motto of “People who play together stay together.

To this end, Taimi hosts events, activities, contests, and other competitions throughout the year and urges all members to participate. These allow users from different gender identities and sexualities, who would never have met otherwise, to just have fun together.

All in All…

As an online dating platform that pretty much has it all, Taimi really stands out as a winner. If you haven’t looked into Taimi, do yourself a favor and join. It’s free and who knows what might just await you there?
