Precisely is a new dating app that intentionally takes a very non-minimalistic approach by allowing users to post highly detailed information about themselves on their profile.
Interestingly, the app doesn't do this by forcing you to take a super-long quiz in the mold of OKCupid or Match.com but rather lets you describe your traits and lay out what it is that you're looking for using a clickable menu. The menu includes everything from physical features such as "brunette" and "athletic" to personality traits such as "sarcastic" or "witty". You can even include personal tastes in everything music to politics.
Ultimately, this dating app caters to those who may have grown disillusioned by apps like Tinder because of the paucity of profile information, and those who have a better idea of what kind of match they're looking for.
