The Sober dating app is ostensibly for singles, but it does much more than just help you find a date. The new app works a lot like Tinder in that you are given location-based matches, but unlike the now-iconic app, Sober is meant to help folks who don't drink or do drugs find others like them. In addition to matching singles, you can also befriend them to create a social network full of sober friends.
In addition to text messages, the Sober dating app also lets you send photos to matches and friends. You can post and browse the in-app newsfeed, and there is also a page with information on services to help you get and stay sober. The app just launched on iOS and an Android version is in the works.
