One hundred percent of Chappy’s members are gay as it was an exclusive gay dating mobile app. More than half of its member base resides in the United States and the United Kingdom, and majority are gay men within the age range of 18 to 34 years old.
In Chappy, members have the privilege to customise their matching preferences to what they are looking for in the app, whether it is a casual night out or serious dating. According to Chappy’s recent report, more and more of their members set their settings to ‘Cute’, which is their term for users who are looking for more than a fling. This is contrary to the prevalent notion that only casual fun and flings are what you will find in gay dating apps.
You can only have a Chappy account if you have a Facebook account. The two accounts will be linked so you can create your own profile. The information and photos from your Facebook profile are automatically displayed. You need to give access to Chappy so you can proceed. Your current Facebook profile photo will be your default Chappy profile photo. Same goes with your name and gender. You can manage your photos by clicking them on the profile tab of Chappy. You can delete or replace them, but you cannot leave your profile photo blank.
Chappy works on mutual connections. If you had swiped right to a profile from Chappy’s roulette-type matching feature, and that member had also swiped right on yours, both of you will get a notification that you matched with each other. You and that member will now belong to each other’s message inboxes and you can start a conversation. Unfortunately, that’s the only way to contact another member—if you and he had successfully matched.
Profiles in Chappy feature very few details about the members. At the default view, a member’s photo gallery or profile picture (if the member only has one photo) take up the whole screen, with the member’s name and age at the bottom. When you scroll down, you will see an ‘About Me’ paragraph which is personally written by the member. There is also an indicator of how near or far (kilometres away) you are from that member.
Your Facebook account and Chappy profile are closely knitted together. The photos, name, and age that are featured on your profile are all from Facebook. You can manage your photos, change your profile photo or delete some pictures you don’t want to get featured in Chappy, but you cannot leave your profile photo empty. The only way to change your name is if you also change your Facebook name. Chappy makes sure that there are no fake profiles in their mobile app, which is why the only way to sign up to their platform is through Facebook.
Chappy was only available as a mobile app. Its features were made convenient for quick and on-the-go accessibility. Its design was made to give a pleasurable and fitting mobile user experience.

Chappy has its flagship feature which is called the ‘Chappy Scale’. The ‘Chappy Scale’ tailors the match suggestions that you get based on where you set your intention, whether it is on ‘Cute’, ‘Sexy’, or ‘Who Knows’. ‘Cute’ is Chappy’s term for users who are looking more for serious dating, while ‘Sexy’ is for users who are looking for fun or casual night outs. If you are unsure, you can set your preference in the middle of the scale, which is called ‘Who Knows’. It will display both ‘Cute’ and ‘Sexy’ users. This feature of Chappy helps set expectations among members.
