We strongly recommend that you do not share any personal or sensitive information on Passionfruit. While we built this app to help you discover new friendships and meet new people, you are still talking to people you have never met. If you've developed enough comfort to talk to your new friends from Passionfruit outside of the app, be careful not to share any personal or sensitive information. We also recommend using third-party secure messaging apps, such as Telegram or Signal.

Passionfruit focuses on personality, interests, and ideas. We don’t want the first impression to be based on looks. Instead of swiping left and right on pictures, you can lead with conversation. Once you’ve connected with someone, you can easily share photos of yourself with new friends on other popular social media apps.
