Darlivo is a dating and social networking mobile application developed by the Nepali company Darlivo Network LLC. It was launched in April 2025 and combines location-based matchmaking with multiplayer games, anonymous posting, and live-stream gifting.[1] The app is available on Android and iOS and operates primarily in Nepal and India.[2]

History

[edit]

Darlivo was founded by Pharid Ali in Kathmandu, Nepal, and released on Google Play in April 2025.[3] The company stated that it was not venture-funded and was built independently by a small team.[4] An iOS version followed in 2025.[5]

The app reported over 300,000 downloads by July 2026 and described itself as one of the fastest-growing dating apps in South Asia.[3][4] In July 2026, Darlivo launched on Product Hunt.[6]

Features

[edit]

Darlivo differs from swipe-based dating apps by focusing on interactive and low-pressure forms of connection:[3]

  • Nearby discovery – distance-based matching and a real-time live map view showing users nearby.[6][7]
  • Tinu Moments – anonymous, mood-themed posting where users can share thoughts with people nearby or globally.[8]
  • Play-to-connect gaming – built-in multiplayer games such as Ludo and Tic-tac-toe played in-chat as ice-breakers between matches.[6]
  • Live streaming and gifting – users can host live streams and send animated gifts.[9]
  • Profile verification – to reduce spam and fake profiles.[10]
  • Real-time chat and chatrooms.[1]

Safety and moderation

[edit]

The app uses AI/ML-based content filtering for fake-profile detection and nudity control, and provides block and report tools as well as an in-app support chat.[3] The company states it complies with Nepal's Individual Privacy Act and Electronic Transactions Act.[3] The app carries a content rating of 18+ on Google Play.[1] Google Play's data-safety disclosure for the app lists collection of app activity, device IDs, and messaging data, and states that data is not encrypted.[1]

In 2026, user reviews on Google Play raised concerns about moderation of sexually explicit content on the platform.[1] Product Hunt community members have suggested additional safety features such as mute and block options from the map view.[6]

Reception

[edit]

The app holds a 4.8/5 rating on Google Play based on more than 250 reviews,[1] while its iOS release holds a 2.1/5 rating from 7 reviews on the App Store.[11] By August 2026 the Android app was ranked in the top 150 free dating apps in India, Norway, Finland, Slovakia, and Denmark.[12] It has been described by TheStartupNepal as "one of the most talked-about homegrown apps in Nepal's growing startup ecosystem".[3]
