Amour: Live Chat Make Friends 4.6.0

Meeting new people and making new friends has become a far more difficult job in this day and age because of the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The work has become more demanding, spaces for finding new people are shrinking and there has been a general takeover of our free time by the internet and our phones. This means that people usually just don’t have the time to physically go out and meet new people and make good friends and companions. This space has been captured interestingly by mobile phone apps that look to bridge the distance between new people by providing them with a virtual place where they can take a look at each other’s profile, interests and pictures and then mutually decide if they want to get to know each other and talk to each other. If the two hit it off its great otherwise you can keep exploring the community to find people who match your type. Lamour: Live Chat Make Friends is a live chat app that promises similar functionality with its huge user base one of its biggest advantages.

There are a few aspects of any live chat app or dating app that need to be spot on for it to be trusted enough to be used. You should look at the app’s active users, profile verification mechanisms and in-app content moderation. If the active user base is high then it means that people like what they are seeing and therefore, consistently using the app. If the profile verification mechanism includes phone, email and video-to-photo match verification then it means that the app has a high regard for only keeping real profiles on their apps and aren’t interested in fake profiles to enlarge their numbers. If the app’s in-app content moderation is strong and it adheres to its policies of no nudity etc. then it means that it values people who want to make good friends and soul mates rather than those who are only using the app to spread vulgarity and harass people. Lamour’s live chat app ticks most of these boxes on paper at least. It has a great verification system and a huge user base but the app still leaves a lot to be desired when you would actually use it.

The app’s user verification system is interesting as there are no checks when you first sign up with the app. You are only encouraged to put up a picture and complete your profile but you aren’t limited in any sense of the word if you don’t do any of these things. However, without these steps, other users who would view your profile won’t see a verified badge with your profile and therefore, most would not interact with you. Further, the app also has video verification and this is generally an indication that the user is not a bot and an actual user. However, even with these verification systems in place, it seems odd that completely verified user profiles act like bots soon after you join the app. This means that as soon as you would sign up, you would get multiple messages from verified users who would want to interact with you and essentially seduce you even if you have nothing but your name on your profile. This is essentially done in order to get the user interested into spending cash as you can only increase your conversations and move on to live chatting, picture sharing and video calling after you have bought the premium user packages. The live chat app needs to clamp down on this modus operandi if it wants to build a clean image and wants its users to find friends and companions organically.

The live chat app has five tabs namely Explore, Live, Party, Chat and Profile. Explore is where you can take a look at profiles of users from all around the world, Live is where you can follow live streams of users you like and party is where you get to hang out with people that you like. Chat allows you to call and video call with people interested in talking to you while Profile is where you build your profile so that other users would like to interact with you.

Conclusion:

Lamour: Live Chat Make Friends is a live chat app with a wonderful user base and multiple wonderful chatting features. However, there seems to be a number of bots masquerading as verified users and the app needs to clamp down on these profiles if it really wants to build a clean image amongst its user base.
