A free dating app in Canada, with nothing held back

Most dating apps call themselves free, then put the features that matter behind a subscription. Heartwave is a free dating app for everyone in Canada: every feature is included and there is no subscription to buy.

What “free” means on Heartwave

On a lot of apps, free means you can make a profile and swipe, but seeing who liked you, video calling or filtering properly costs extra every month. Heartwave is different right now: everything in the app is free for everyone. There is no Premium tier to unlock and nothing to cancel.

  • Compatibility matching with your Heartprint and a Chemistry Check on every profile.
  • Voice and video calls with your matches, without sharing your phone number.
  • Automatic message translation into 23 languages.
  • Optional face verification for a verified tick on real profiles.
  • The Map, Circles, Live, Stories and safety tools like DateGuard.

If paid plans are ever added in future, we will say so clearly on this site and in the app first.

What's your Heartprint?

Matched on more than photos

When you join, you set your Heartprint: four parts of who you are, each from 0 to 100. Communication is how you like to talk and stay in touch. Lifestyle is your pace of life and everyday habits. Values are what matter most to you. Social energy is how much you recharge with people or on your own.

Every profile in Discover then shows a compatibility score built from how close your Heartprint is to theirs, with values counting the most. Further down each profile, the Chemistry Check shows exactly where you are in sync and where you are different, plus the interests you share. It is a starting point for a real conversation, not a verdict: who you like is always your choice.

How the Heartprint works →

Built for dating safely

New profile photos and videos stay hidden from other members until they pass a safety check. You can report or block anyone in a tap, and reports are reviewed by our moderation team. Before a date, DateGuard lets you note where and when you are meeting and sets a check-in time, as a reminder to let your trusted contact know you are fine.

A quick voice or video call inside the app is one of the easiest ways to check someone is who they say they are before you meet, and your number stays private.

When the Heartwave chemistry hits

For a country with many languages

Canada is home to people who grew up speaking English, French and many other languages. On Heartwave you write the way you normally write. Messages you receive are translated into the language you choose, and the original is always shown underneath, so nothing gets hidden or lost.

Who you will see

Heartwave shows you people near you, and the Map gives you a feel for who is around by city area only. Positions are worked out on our servers in squares about 11 km across, so nobody’s exact location is ever sent to other members’ phones. People who have paused their account, and anyone either of you has blocked, never appear.
