Viviste: Gay Dating App

Michica Inc.

About this app

A matching app made by gay men, for gay men.

"Matching apps are full of suspicious users, and it makes me uneasy." "A surface-level profile doesn't really tell me much about the other person." Have you ever felt this way? Viviste is a matching app that strips away every unnecessary feature, aiming to create an environment where gay men can focus solely on "meeting their ideal partner"—making the path to a connection as direct as possible.

[4 Reasons Viviste Is Chosen]

1. Meet people who share your hobbies and tastes with the Preferences (tag) feature
Just register the things you love and your hobbies and tastes as Preferences, and it becomes easier to find people who share your values. Through Preferences, you can naturally show off the "real you" that's hard to convey through a profile description alone.

2. Share your everyday life with the posting feature
Equipped with a posting feature that feels like social media. By sharing the little moments of your day or glimpses of your hobbies, others can get to know your personality and daily life even before matching. It also makes it easier to find topics in common and helps spark conversation.

3. A minimal design focused on "meeting up"
No need to get lost in complicated features. From matching to messaging, we've carefully selected and included only the features you need to meet someone. Precisely because it's simple, you can focus on communicating with the other person—and the speed at which you actually meet up is on a whole different level.

4. A safe, secure community with mandatory identity verification
All users are required to complete identity verification using an official document. (*Since you only need to submit the information necessary for age verification, a photo of your face and your name are not required.) We thoroughly exclude fraudulent users such as agents, fake accounts, and impersonators. We provide a clean space where only trustworthy, real users can connect.

5. Screenshots prohibited
To prevent your identity from being exposed, the app is designed so that screenshots cannot be taken on the Likes screen or the message screen.

[Recommended for people who]
- Want to find someone who shares their values through Preferences and posts
- Want to enjoy natural connections while sharing their daily life and hobbies
- Don't want to be jerked around by agents and fake accounts
- Are worried about their identity being exposed and want to place top priority on privacy
- Want to start with a message, or just meet up first, and proceed at their own pace

[Our Commitment to Safety and Security]
- Only users who have completed strict age verification using an official document can exchange messages. Since you only need to submit the information necessary for age verification, even those worried about their identity being exposed can use the app with peace of mind.
- Available in English and Japanese.

What’s new

We've reimagined how Likes work!

■ Likes are now stock-based
Each Like you send lowers your balance by one. To start, we've gifted everyone 30 Likes. See your balance and history from the heart icon on Discover. Free Likes expire — we'll remind you beforehand.

■ Earn more Likes with Quests
Earn Likes just by enjoying the app — filling out your profile, adding photos, liking posts, and more. Log in daily for Likes, and consecutive logins earn even more. Find them under "Quests" on My Page.
