Last week, an app developer took to TikTok with a big announcement for Disney fans looking to make love connections.
Single Riders is a proposed new dating app that aims to connect Disney devotees — along with other theme park enthusiasts — with one another.
The latest briefing, shared on the platform’s TikTok account @singleridersapp, revealed that the app will begin searching for beta testers soon.
Among the ever-expanding pool of dating apps, Tinder, Bumble and Hinge still reign supreme, but new, hyper-niche platforms are introduced to the world constantly — take Tribal, for example, the app where users are matched based on their values, rather than their physical preferences — but this one may just float your “Jungle Cruise” boat.
The app’s “Single Riders” moniker echoes Disney World’s single rider lines, which allow unaccompanied park guests to mingle and fill empty seats — effectively cutting down on wait time.
In the same way, the app invites the massive franchise’s community of fanatics to plan dates in the park, discuss their shared Disney-related interests, or, alternatively, build platonic friendships.
The creators have claimed that the app will be available everywhere in the U.S.
The developer also said that more updates on the status of the platform were coming soon and advised interested Disney fans to stay in the loop by keeping an eye on the app’s social media pages.
Users sounded off in the comments of the post, expressing both their excitement and communicating some non-negotiable features the app should include.
“This would be the only dating app I’d ever consider getting on,” enthused one commenter.
“I go to the parks alone and it would be AWESOME to have a feature that shows if other singles are at the parks at the same time,” suggested one fan on the prowl.
“Noticing it’s all ladies in the comments. Hope we can get some fellas excited for this too,” noted one skeptical Disney fan.
Meanwhile, a wave of commenters proposedincluding filters like height, location, age, political affiliation and education, which other popular dating apps offer.
Beyond being a dream vacation destination for kids across the world, Disney parks have also led to a blossoming between adults.
Despite false rumors of a ban swirling on the internet, Magic Kingdom’s Cinderella Castleremains one of the most popular places in Disney World to pop the question.
In fact, park employees often see dozens of Disneygoers getting down on one knee on any given day.
Some Disney lovers even host franchise-themed weddings, and book out sections of the park for tens of thousands of dollars, all so they can say their vows under the nightly Mickey-shaped fireworks.
