happn

happn is a French location-based dating app that matches users based on where they have crossed paths. Users can like or dislike other users, and can chat if both parties liked each other. The app is used as an online dating application.

happn was founded by Didier Rappaport, Fabien Cohen and Antony Cohen in 2014. Its app feed lists possible matches based on the location of users' phones. The company then employed more than one hundred people. In 2025, happn was acquired by Hello Group, an Asian social and dating app operator.

In 2021, happn launched a web version, which is no longer available as of 2025.
