A Christchurch entrepreneur is attempting to break into the dating app market.

‘Amor’ is trying to bring something fresh, only giving four matches a week and refusing to show profile photos for the first 2024 hours.

Creator Emily Heazlewood told Mike Hosking that although the market is quite saturated, a lot of them are hook up culture apps.

She said that they’ve gone down the compatibility route with matchmaking, helping drive people away from the app into meeting in the real world.
