Europe dating without the language barrier
In Europe, a short trip can take you across several languages. People study, work and fall in love across borders all the time. Heartwave is designed for exactly that: it matches you on compatibility and translates your chats, so you can get to know someone whether they write in Polish, Portuguese or Greek.
Eighteen European languages, and more
Heartwave translates the messages you receive into the language you choose. Among its 23 languages are English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Turkish, Swedish, Danish, Finnish, Greek, Czech, Romanian and Hungarian, alongside Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Indonesian.
The original message always appears under the translation. If you are learning your match’s language, that is a lovely way to pick up a few words, and a good thing to talk about on your first call.
Matched on character, not just looks
Your Heartprint scores communication, lifestyle, values and social energy from 0 to 100. Maybe you love long dinners and late nights; maybe you prefer early hikes and quiet evenings. Discover shows a compatibility score on every profile, with values counting most, and the Chemistry Check shows exactly where your rhythms meet and differ.
Privacy by design
Many people care deeply about how their personal data is handled. Heartwave never sends anyone’s exact location to other members’ phones: the Map works with squares about 11 km across, calculated on our servers. Calls with matches happen inside the app, so your phone number stays private. You can pause your account whenever you like, and deleting it is explained step by step on our site.
Translation is provided by DeepL, an outside service, so the text of messages you receive is sent to DeepL to be translated. Our Privacy Policy explains this in full.
Beyond the swipe
- Profiles with personality: photos, short videos, a voice intro and prompts.
- Circles: join groups around the things you love, from football to film.
- Live and Stories: share moments as they happen.
- Voice and video calls: a natural next step once the chat is flowing.
Meeting safely
New photos and videos are checked before anyone else sees them, reports are reviewed by our moderation team, and optional face verification adds a verified tick. DateGuard lets you record where and when you are meeting and sets a check-in reminder; it does not alert anyone for you, so always tell a friend your plans. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.
Free for everyone, right now
Every feature, translation included, is currently free for everyone with no subscription.
Dating across borders
Maybe you moved for university, took a job in another city or met someone on holiday. Long-distance and cross-border relationships are common in Europe, and they work best when you can talk easily. Translation removes the first hurdle, the Heartprint helps you see whether your values line up, and calls inside the app let you hear each other before you plan a visit.
