Let’s face it, maneuvering the online dating world is complicated. You spend ages swiping left or right (mostly left) and trying to establish some sort of connection only to find out that your potential date is a catfish.
Well, a new experience-driven, members-only dating app called Shake is launching in the city this fall and it’s here to exceed everything you’d expect from your average app. Finally — a dating app made in Miami, for Miami!
The idea behind Shake is simple: it offers a new level of connection through experience. Not only can you swipe through profiles, but you can swipe through date night or daytime plans. For example, users can post a date idea for others to find and apply to join. Say you want to go out for a spontaneous boat day or a Miami Heat game. There’s the option to label the date as “On Me,” “Take Me,” and “50/50,” which indicates splitting the cost. The more dates posted, the more visibility date creators will have on the app.
Additionally, the Shake team will also sponsor date outings of their own every week, like dinner at Carbone Miami, a 60-minute flying lesson with a certified flight instructor, a Faena Theater Cabaret dinner show, an exotic car experience and a Harbour Island weekend getaway. It’s all available exclusively to Shake members via a QR code accessible within the app.
So how are members selected? Once you download Shake, it asks you to fill out your profile and then you’re placed on a waitlist. A dedicated internal committee will be in charge of sign-up approvals to ensure the most authentic user experience. If you’re interested in joining, you can download Shake in the App Store and Google Play Store by searching for ‘Shake Dating.’ Take a chance on love!
