About

While we were in lockdown and had a lot of time on our hands due to the Coronavirus pandemic, KnownSingles was created by a small team of software professionals in the United States and Sri Lanka. We took advantage of a terrible situation to create a dating and matchmaking app which we feel will provide many singles globally with a very comfortable means to meet their lifelong partners.

The KnownSingles platform will launch in 2024 and will be available via an app on the Apple Store and Google Play Store.
