Yellow - A Tinder Approach to Making Snapchat Friends
 |
| lebonbon.co.uk |
Yellow is an app where you can upload a selfie and post it with hopes that someone will like it and want to add you. When you open the app profiles will appear and you can swipe left if you are not interested or right when you find someone you like the look of. Once you and another user have both swiped right on each other's profiles, only then will the username be revealed and you can then add that person. Unlike Tinder it is not made for dating, simply finding new people to be friends with on the social network.
There is also no messenger option, you will have to wait to have added a person to communicate through Snapchat itself. Yellow really only serves to match you with people and in just two weeks the app has had over 3.5 million swipes. It seems to be quite a good idea as you can only know someone's username if you have both liked the other's photo.
So you're not just going round adding everyone and anyone nor being added by whoever may feel like it. I'm aware that you still don't actually know the person on the other end, so I suppose that could be an issue in the long run, but all I can say to that is, like anything else, don't go stupid with it. Keep in mind that you do not know that person so keep it friendly, but not too much. Having said that, I haven't come across any complaints during my research on the app. We'll have to give it a chance and see how well it develops.
Feeling lonely at night? Download yellow for snapchat on the app store😂
