2025-08-14 00:00:00 At SinglesAroundMe (our nickname is SAM), our focus has always been on building a great local dating app that helps you locate and connect with nearby singles. Since our initial launch as the world's first location-based GPS dating app in 2010, we have grown our company, evolved the platform and have connected millions of local singles together around the globe, bringing hope, love and opportunity to so many. During this period of unprecedented anxiety and social upheaval, we want to help in every way we can. We are concerned not only for the people who we work with, who remain fully-employed, but also about social isolation and the mental health of isolated people globally, as social distancing stretches into the future.  To this end, we have included access to our featured "Destination" search service as part of our basic free membership to allow you to meet people beyond 100 miles (160KM) and all around the world, even if you can't travel there right now. We also are also providing free access to "My Likes” so you can circle back to people you have "Liked" and would like to connect with. Now you can send them a message or nudge to hopefully match, providing you with a second chance to make a first impression!
