MatchAble – an app that helps the specially-abled to make meaningful connections
Delhi-based Periwinkle Peafowl Pvt. Ltd. has announced the India launch of its flagship mobile app – MatchAble – a dating, matchmaking, and networking platform that enables people with special needs to make meaningful connections both online (virtually) and offline (in the real world).
Powered by its proprietary tech and algorithms, the MatchAble app effectively helps specially-abled people – including men, women, and those from the LGBTQIA+ community, to break free from a multitude of societal taboos that usually limit their chances and likelihood to bond with like-minded people in the name of disabilities.
MatchAble, Founded by Ms. Minal Sethi, is here with the sole intent to solve this problem and change the scenario for the better by allowing the propagation of “boundless love” amongst the specially-abled. To this end, it has brought forward a platform that normalizes dating and socializing culture exclusively for the people with disabilities, thus bridging the current existing gaps for this audience in our country.

Unlike many other popular dating apps out there today, MatchAble’s algorithm strives to connect two specially-abled persons’ verified profiles with each other, basis of their preferences, age, gender, interests, among other factors. The app goes beyond the regular pattern of a ‘dating app’ ,To begin with, for instance, MatchAble has introduced a unique feature to adjust the font size of people with retinal (eye) disorder. In the near future, the app plans to introduce an array of interactive and specially-abled-friendly features such as voice note integration (for people who find it difficult to type), screen reader, screen speaker and video calling, among others. And all of these features will allow people with different kinds of disabilities/impairments to use and take advantage of the app optimally.
Furthermore, MatchAble shall also be soon hosting offline meet-ups to enable their users to meet and network, as well as bring on board therapists, mental health experts, and relationship advisors to benefit their users.
The MatchAble app is now available free of cost for Android users!
