What makes FWD different?

FWD is all about bringing people together, and we do it in three distinct yet seamless ways:

Adding friends is not a requirement but very much encouraged! Here’s why:

In short, on FWD, your friends don’t just make the journey fun; they make it fruitful.

You’ll get farther, faster with a little help from your friends.

Do I need to add friends?

Everyone must be 18 years old or older to use FWD.

Are there any restrictions on who can be my friends on FWD?

Think of FWD as your social guide, sharing hints with your FWD friends about your preferences, who in turn receive profiles that sync up with what you're looking for. It’s like giving your friends a sneak peek into your ideal connections, so they can be spot-on with their introductions and recommendations. This way, your FWD friends are clued in, helping them make more accurate, thoughtful connections for you on FWD, without receiving a complete list of your preferences.

What information do my FWD friends receive about who I would like to meet?

It’s simple! Just tap on the friends icon on your Home Screen, the “Add Friends” button and then choose which friend you would like to invite.

If your friend is already on FWD, they will receive an in-app invitation to be FWD friend. 

If your friend is not on FWD yet, you can send them a custom invite on the messaging platform of your choosing, inviting them to join FWD. Once they register and accept your invitation, they will be added as your FWD friend.

Create Your Circle

Tell your circle what you're looking for through Shouts. Whether it's dating, friendships, event companions, or professional contacts, your request displays for 24 hours to keep content fresh and relevant. Your circle's Shouts are displayed on your Home screen so you, too, know what they need and can help them out.

Shout What You Need

In just 3 clicks, your friends introduce you to people you know. They can add a personal note saying why you should link up.

You also can make introductions for friends in your circle.

Make Direct Introductions

Your circle receives 2 curated profiles of people on FWD each day, to review and recommend to you, based on your Shouts and preferences.
