SAN FRANCISCO, July 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- PokeMatch, the
popular free Pokemon Dating app that went viral 4 days ago,
launches on iOS and has already created more than 10 THOUSAND
matches.
PokeMatch co-creator Rene Roosen needed a date while wanting to
catch Pokemon. He teamed up with his friends Pim de Witte and Troy
Osinoff to Create PokeMatch. PokeMatch is an app that allows you to
find dates or friends that play Pokemon GO. After launching
Android-only, the app went crazy on Reddit and was covered by major
news outlets such as CBS and Forbes. PokeMatch has already created
more than 10 THOUSAND matches! Today, the app was released for
iPhone.
Pim de Witte, co-creator of the
app says: "We're seeing insane growth. Something I've never seen
before is happening to us, and it is feeling kind of surreal.
People are using our app all over the world. With the launch of our
new iOS app, we hope to connect every single Pokemon GO
player."
Players are not only using the app to find dates, but also to
find other team members to play with. With the release of our new
feature to find friends, we are helping bring more players together
than ever. This highly requested feature will bring in a whole new
audience into the app. This is no longer a Pokemon dating app, this
is now an app to make connections.
"It's not just a hook-up app, PokeMatch and Pokemon GO create
actual connections between people, completely for free," says
Pim de Witte.
"Our objective since launch has expanded, from an app to find a
date to an app to make connections. Pokemon GO has brought everyone
outside to play Pokemon, our objective is to connect them," says
Troy Osinoff.
"We're also seeing people use it because they feel safer going
Pokemon hunting with other people. It can be quite scary to go out
on your own," says Rene Roosen.
Rene has also managed to find a date himself using the app. Pim
is already married and has simply been enjoying the ride.
