Swipe Right: We’re Loving This Tinder-Style App That Helps You Forge New Female Friendships

How often have you found yourself stuck in the house on a Friday night wondering who to call for an impromptu evening of nibbles and wine?

Whether you’ve moved to a new city, you’re a tad shy or you’re just too damn busy, making new friends can be tricky.

In fact, forging new friendships not only requires the opportunity of meeting new people, but like every other relationship, the time and commitment to make it grow.

That’s why we’re loving the idea of new app Hey! Vina.

The premise behind it is simple. Just like Tinder, the app pulls all your personal information together from Facebook and uses that to help you search for women who share similar interests in your area.

Then you simply swipe through a list of potential new gal pals, message who you match with and hopefully arrange a friendship date.

Not surprisingly, the app’s already proving popular with 11,000 people downloading it in the six months following its US launch.

The really great news is that the service is free and has just gone global, so all you gotta do is download it and get chatting to your future BFFs.

Couldn’t be simpler, huh?
