My wife is a user of this app (she has used to to help her sisters look for husbands) and so far I think it's a good product. You were wise to include the wali/chaperone option because that is clearly a key feature for many sisters.
She always mentions how she's puzzled over the "Always pray / sometimes pray / never pray" options under religious practice. Can you explain your thought process in coming up with those options?
I want to say that I can see why your app would be a tremendous challenge from a product development standpoint. What you have as a user base in America are basically a mix of many different immigrant cultures that each have their own idea of Islamic traditional marriage customs - Somalian vs. Arab vs. Indopak vs. West African vs. Cham vs. vs. vs..., as well as clashes between youth & elder viewpoints, as well as a large indigenous (I use the term loosely - we're all immigrants to an extent) American Muslim population as well (something that foreigners usually are shocked to hear - Americans becoming Muslim?! What!!). Do your research well & don't give up
I ask Allah to guide you to a product that is beneficial for the Muslims - and also materially successful!
Edit: Also, my email address was used at one point as the "wali" contact but I stopped getting digest emails from the conversations inexplicably. You may need tighter QA around that pipeline
- brod_ie 9y agoVery happy to hear that and thank you Absolutely it's a challenge and we're aiming to be as inclusive as possible Interesting, if you email me (ryan@muzmatch.com) I can look into this further for you Thanks again
- tboyd47 9y agoThanks. I think she's taking a break from the searching for now but I'll save your email address in case it happens again.
