# What is Murudo?

Murudo is a dating app for Zimbabweans at home and abroad who want a real relationship. Here is how it works and where you can use it.

Murudo is a dating app for Zimbabweans at home and across the diaspora, and for people who want a real Zimbabwean connection. It is made for people who want something real. Joining, matching and messaging are free.

## How it works

1. You create a profile with photos, a short bio, prompts and what you are looking for.
2. Murudo introduces you to people in two ways: a small set of hand-picked introductions each day in **Daily**, and more profiles to browse in **For You**.
3. When you like someone and they like you back, it is a match and the two of you can chat.

Every profile shows what that person is looking for, so you know before you say hello.

## The six tabs

- **Daily**: answer a few questions once, then get introductions chosen for you each day. See [How Daily works](https://help.murudo.co/finding-people/how-daily-works/).
- **For You**: browse one profile at a time and like or pass. See [How For You works](https://help.murudo.co/finding-people/how-for-you-works/).
- **Meets**: official Murudo events you can book a place at. See [What is Murudo Meets?](https://help.murudo.co/meets/what-is-murudo-meets/)
- **Likes**: the people who liked you, and the people you liked.
- **Matches**: your matches and your chats.
- **Profile**: your own profile, Murudo Premium, your Inbox, Safety and Settings.

On Murudo Web the **For You** tab is called **Discover**. It is the same thing.

## Where you can use it

- On an Android phone, as an app from Google Play or downloaded from https://murudo.co/.
- On an iPhone or a computer, as Murudo Web at https://murudo.co/app/. There is no app in the App Store.

One account works everywhere. [How to get Murudo on your phone](https://help.murudo.co/getting-started/get-murudo/) has the steps for each.

## Built to be safer

- Members can verify with a selfie. Verified profiles carry a **Verified** badge.
- You can block or report anyone. Every report is reviewed by a person.
- The **Safety Center** in the app has advice for first dates.
