MateOnHow does MateOn match people?
You pick activities you are open to, such as chess, cycling, running, walks, or coffee walks. MateOn shows you people nearby who want the same activity. When you both express interest, you match and can start chatting.
How do I sign in?
MateOn uses Sign in with Apple, Google, or Facebook. There is no separate password to remember. We never see your provider password.
Why does MateOn need my location?
Location is how we find people near you and show distance. We store an approximate area, not your exact position. You can hide your distance or city in settings, or turn off discovery entirely.
Can I control what others see?
Yes. In settings you can turn discovery on or off, hide your approximate distance, hide your city, and limit yourself to online or in-person activities.
How do I report or block someone?
Open the person's profile or your chat with them and choose block or report. Blocking removes the match and stops further contact. Reports are reviewed by our team.
How do I delete my account?
Go to settings and choose delete account. We mark your account deleted, remove you from discovery, and anonymize your data. If you signed in with Apple, we also revoke the Sign in with Apple authorization.
What happens to my data when I delete my account?
We anonymize personal details such as your email, photo, bio, city, and exact location, and remove your device tokens. See our Privacy Policy for the full picture.
How do I manage notifications?
In settings you can choose which notifications you receive, such as new matches, messages, activity invites, and reminders. You can also turn notifications off entirely in your device settings.
How do I change my profile or photo?
Open your profile and tap edit. You can update your nickname, bio, photo, city, languages, and the activities you are open to at any time.
What activities does MateOn support?
Today you can match for chess, cycling, running, walks, and coffee walks, with preferences like skill level and pace. We plan to add more over time.
Is MateOn free?
Yes, MateOn is free to use. If that changes in the future, we will make any pricing clear before it applies.
Any tips for meeting safely?
Meet in public places, tell a friend where you are going, and trust your instincts. MateOn does not verify users, so use the same care you would meeting anyone new. Block and report anyone who makes you uncomfortable.
