INDY100 – A study found that ~6% of neurodivergent people feel represented on dating apps, with many experiencing negative emotions. In response, Jamie Johnston, diagnosed with ADHD, created Mattr in 2023. This app prioritizes mental health and accessibility, allowing users to take breaks, supports video replies, and replaces swiping with personality-led questions, offering seven curated matches daily. Mattr includes a daily mental health check-in and an Honesty Box for sharing personal truths. Mandatory face verification ensures genuine connections. Mattr is available in London, with plans to expand across the UK.
