What is HER?

After setting up a profile with images and biographic details, you can browse other users in the ‘Meet’ section. Here you can indicate whether you are interested someone’s profile. If they like you back, it’s a ‘match’ and you can start communicating using the text chat function. You can also add other users as friends, and this also enables the text chat function once your friend request is approved.

The social media section is based on communities with common interests. Once you join a community, you can post as well as like and comment on other users’ posts. All activity on the social feed is linked to the user’s profile.
