More than 81,000 people live within 50 km of Mindelo, in 3 towns and cities including Porto Novo and Pombas. You set the distance yourself in the filters, from 10 km up to 500 km — or choose “Any distance”.
Yes, completely. Nothing on YADate is paid, in Mindelo or anywhere else: you can browse, like, write first and send voice messages or gifts without a subscription or credits. Daily caps exist only to stop spam: up to 40 new conversations a day, for example.
YADate never creates fake profiles or writes on behalf of people who don't exist. A moderator checks every photo before it appears, every member confirms an email address, and any profile can be reported. If someone asks for money or rushes you onto another app, report them — a moderator will look into it.
Yes. Pick any other city in the filters, at home or abroad, and YADate shows the people there.
