Meeting New People Online? Feel Safe with "Taken Mate" App

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - It seems like more people are turning to the internet as a way to meet others, whether it's for dating or buying and selling items.

This new app called "Taken Mate" was released about two weeks ago, but is already getting quite a bit of attention.

Now, don't let the name fool you. "Taken Mate" is not a dating app.

Instead, it's a social verification app that uses various social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and even Tinder to help you see if the person you've been talking to is really who they say they are.

If you want to search someone, whether it's the guy you met at the coffee shop, or the girl selling a sofa on craigslist, simply type in their phone number, email, or name.

"Taken Mate" is an "opt-in" app, meaning, only those who have registered can be searched.

If that's not enough, every time "Taken Mate" is downloaded a ten cent donation will be made to a charity of your choice.

So what are you waiting for? If you are meeting people online and have nothing to hide, this is the app for you!
