Facebook Sparked users have to type out 'what makes them a kind dater' when signing up. The responses will be reviewed before you're allowed to go on speed dates.

The Sparked app has their own site, but it doesn’t look like it’s available yet for everyone. However, The Verge reported that the app describes itself as it “video dating with kind people”.

Their concept also involves no public profiles, no swiping, no endless DMs and that it is free to use. To register, though, you’d need to have your own Facebook account. A Facebook spokesperson said that Sparked is still an “initial experiment” and that at this time it is only in a “small beta test”.The concept is similar to real-world speed-dating events—where daters meet other hopefuls face-to-face for a very short amount of time.

If they do decide to continue, they would go on a second video date—this time for 10 minutes. In case both are still interested, the platform will allow them to exchange their contact details and continue to ‘fan the spark’ through Instagram, Messages or email.In a preview by The Verge, users have to type out “what makes them a kind dater” when signing up. The responses will be “reviewed by a human at Sparked” before you’re allowed to go on speed dates.
