With dating and social networking app Zoe, lesbian, bisexual and queer women can showcase their most authentic selves. Thanks to straightforward profiles, users can convey exactly who they are and what they want.

What we love: Zoe’s specificity. Write an intro (515 characters max) and Zoe helps you articulate the rest. Pick from categorised lists to not only set your gender identity, sexual orientation and the type of relationship you’re looking for, but also share personal details such as piercings and tattoos, as well as your passion for tea tasting, nail art and more. Zoe gets super detailed!
