People are more comfortable with video since the pandemic started. Now is the time for Filter Off video speed dating since Zoom meetings and virtual chat groups are commonplace. Pre-pandemic people wouldn't always agree to a video chat. Video is the future of online dating and for good reason.
Zach says video dating is here to stay because people are more comfortable with the technology. Plus, it is efficient. Instead of texting back and forth with a person who just may be catfishing you, women are able to get a feel for who a guy really is. It makes it easier to make an intimate connection and filter out the bad apples.

Filter Off offers multiple ways to make great connections. Make a short video, add your gender and age preferences, and allow Filter Off to offer you matches. You have five days to set up a video date after matches are offered.
There are private communities and there are interest-based communities. For example, if you are into running, there’s an interest-based group for runners, and you automatically find like-minded people.
There are virtual speed dating events. Start chatting, be curious, and share your passions. Filter Off will ask you if the person you are chatting with is a match. If not, move on. If so, set up a short video date. Filter Off even supplies ice breaker questions to get the conversation going.
