Ife

A lot of you told us you want to connect with people closer to you. So we made it happen You can now find people by distance, city, and proximity, not just far away matches. And we made messaging simpler too. Just open and see your conversations. 💛 ifequeer.com

@Duh_itslastborn We are not yet in the app or Play Store. You can access the app online with any browser at ifequeer.com

@Ifequeer It's not bringing the app on my play store.. WHY PLEASE?🥹💗

Kito is real!! And even when it’s called something else, the experience is the same. We’ve been listening. So we built Ife with safety in mind: ✅Hide Me. ✅Private accounts. ✅Blur photos. ✅Reporting tools. This is just the beginning. 🛡️💛 ifequeer.com

@virgintwink122 @HartAbel1 Appreciate this. It’s a shared responsibility, we build the tools, people use them wisely. 💛

@Ifequeer @HartAbel1 You’re absolutely right. While platforms like yours can aid in creating a safe space with cautionary measures in place, the onus is on each individual to take responsibility for their safety and be wary at the end of the day. Thanks and well done to the Ifequeer team!👏🏾

@virgintwink122 @HartAbel1 The reality is, no platform can fully stop them from signing up. What we’re doing is reducing risk, flags for new profiles, control over who can reach you, quick reporting, and “Hide Me” when needed. We’re building with that reality in mind, as safety comes first.

@Ifequeer @HartAbel1 This is very brilliant, especially with how porous grindr and other sites have become.👏🏾 However, the concern remains; what’s Ifequeer gonna do differently to hedge against these Kito perpetrators, I commend the safety measures btw. What stops a Kito from being able to sign up?

@DominicJeromeh Thank you!

@Ifequeer Brilliant 🥰🥰

@prof_polymath Appreciate you. We look forward to your engagement and feedback💛

@Ifequeer This is very good. Thank you for doing this. Let me check it out.

@ShawnStone97050 You’re right, it doesn’t solve everything. But it’s a step. We’re building this with the reality in mind, and improving it continuously.

@Ifequeer I still think it doesn’t solve the problem

Built for queer Africans, wherever home is. 💛

@FavourOnyebuen1 @AlafinOfOgun Thank you Favour. As we are always looking to improve, feel free to send us your feedback on how we can always do better and keep our community safe. Happy browsing on Ife 💛

@Ifequeer @AlafinOfOgun Awww thanks for reaching out, I really appreciate it, I love the assurance keep it up 🔥 🔥

This app is solely for queer persons and I’m so excited about it. Go register and find your own person ifequeer.com

@KOsajie Thanks Kingsley. We’re a web app for now, free to use, with no ads or subscriptions. You can access it at ifequeer.com from any browser. We’re working toward launching on the App Store & Google Play soon. Also always looking to improve & would appreciate feedback!

@Ifequeer I actually agree with you. Is it downloadable in Play store?

We’ve been listening. Ife now has safety features built specifically for queer Africans in high-risk environments. ✅Hide Me. ✅Blur your photos. ✅Private account. ✅Optional location. ✅Quick exit. Your safety matters to us.🛡️💛 ifequeer.com

@KOsajie That’s indeed a fair concern. In many places, features like hiding or blurring are about safety, not deception. We’re also building reporting tools, warnings, and trust signals to reduce abuse. No app can guarantee complete safety, but we’re building with that reality in mind.

@Ifequeer I don't think the app is safe with those features. Y would anyone want to hide? Private and blur their photos I have been very reluctant to check out the app as this features makes it very easy for homophobias to masquerade.....

@KOsajie @AlafinOfOgun Hi Kingsley, we have taken extra steps to protect everyone who uses the app against kitos and any individual who maybe of harm. You can read our privacy and help policy to learn more. Here for you always💛

@AlafinOfOgun How safe is it? What measures have been put in place to checkmate homophobic people and kitoes

@FavourOnyebuen1 @AlafinOfOgun Hi Favour, we have taken extra steps to protect everyone who uses the app against kitos and any individual who maybe of harm. You can read our privacy and help policy to learn more. Here for you always💛

@AlafinOfOgun Very nice, but watch as it becomes filled with kitoes and homophobes looking for next targets

A small win! A real one🎉 Botswana has officially removed its colonial era law criminalizing same-sex intimacy. Progress is not perfect. But it is happening. And it is worth holding onto. We are building for a future where safety is not a privilege.🛡️ ifequeer.com

@senfumahans Super congratulations to the folks in Botswana 🇧🇼 🏳️‍🌈!!!

Folks, we’re now legal in Botswana 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

Somewhere in Lagos, Accra, London, or New York, a queer African opened Ife today for the first time. This is for them. 💛 ifequeer.com

100+ queer Africans, in the diaspora and back home, found their way to Ife. We didn’t advertise. No paid reach. Just word of mouth and a community that was ready for this. Signup Today! 🌍💛 ifequeer.com

@Mayor45769 Hi there, we are a web app for now as we reach users and get feedback. You can easily access ifequeer.com on any browser, and can also choose to add to your Home Screen for easy access.

@Ifequeer Is it an app or website, because I can’t find it on my App store
