More than 1.1 million people live within 50 km of Gedeb, in 6 towns and cities including Borama, Jijiga and Tog Wajaale. 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 Gedeb 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.
There are no fake profiles here: YADate doesn't create them or chat on anyone's behalf. Photos go live only after a moderator approves them, every account confirms an email address, and reports are reviewed by people. 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.
