#13Does the App allow "marrying" multiple wives? (This is allowed in Islam)! We need this feature.

#14"We welcome Walis. Women can include a guardian in their conversation for extra peace of mind."
That seems incredibly sexist to me. Women need a guardian, wtf...

#15Dating apps right now feel a little like pre-Facebook social networks. There is one for every niche.
I wonder why there isn't a platform for single people where dating companies are just apps on top of the platform. Seems like bad user experience that a user needs to maintain multiple accounts.
Don't get me wrong, I think this is a great idea but I think the really big company in this space will be a platform for single people.

#16Pretty cool guys. I can see from the play store comments that your users love the app. Best wishes. Whats 'Halal, free, and fun'? Whats you tech stack like?
A few harsh comments in play store are interesting too :p
and many downvotes are because there are in-app purchases. Seems to be quite a problem with play store. They should have an algorithm or UX flow to weed out such reviews.

#17Also, do you allow other religions to use the App? Why? why not?

#19> You must be at least 17 years of age to access and use the Service. That's too old for Muslim men.
We've banned this account for violating the guidelines.

Different dating apps cater to different mindsets towards dating. Some ban pictures in favor of words; while others only work if you have great pictures; then others want one to mention their annual income ranges.
