Your fave app for women's friendship! Swipe to meet new friends, join communities, take quizzes, live chat, & go to events to live your best life.

"I've shopped for friends twice on Hey! VINA and my life has changed for the better." - Women's Health Magazine

"A few swipes later, I was addicted" - ELLE Magazine

"... finally the startup goddesses delivered" - Cosmopolitan Magazine

“For women who travel, or have relocated to a new city, a like-minded social circle is now quickly within reach.” - The New York Times

"I think about my first VINA date, and remember that we have plans to hang out the next day. I tell my friend yes, she should use it. Yes, to women everywhere. What do you have to lose?" - PAPER Magazine

"Why shouldn’t you be using matching apps to increase your friend base? It’s no weirder than swiping right to find your next partner, after all." - NYLON Magazine

Hey! VINA is the social discovery app just for women. You can tap into wherever you are in the world (or in your life!) to meet up with friends when you travel, move to a new city, transition life phases, or simply want to grow your social circle. Friend finding made safe, easy, and fun. Yay!

How Hey! VINA works:
— SIGN UP WITH FACEBOOK OR INSTAGRAM - we use this to confirm your gender and find people who you should know

— TAKE QUIZZES - we use fun and festive personality quizzes to help you find people who you will be compatible with

— JOIN A COMMUNITY -  join a community to find friends who specifically like what you like and live like you live

— SWIPE RIGHT TO MEET - anonymously swipe right to indicate who you want to meet right now, and swipe left to skip people you're not ready to meet or aren't interested in

— GET INTRODUCED - once you have a match, you  get introduced to a new potential friend. We make it easy to meet with a personalized intro from Olivia from VINA

— MEET UP - Use our handy Plans feature to post a private invite to meet up or make a public invite to invite everyone in your area to join... the most important part is meeting up IRL!

— KEEP IN TOUCH - you can add your matches and facebook friends to your VINA List to group chat, make plans, or all kinds of stuff 

— BECOME A VIP - match faster and easier by upgrading to VINA VIP! You can now upgrade with a paid subscription to preview who swiped right on you... more premium features to come soon, too!

Log In

How are there 3 log in options and none of them work, along with no option to just type in your email… I’ve never experienced so much trouble logging into an app in my life. Deleting it at this point

So much potential it hurts

I’m not gonna be like: “I’m not like other girls” because it perpetuates a stereotype of women that I don't like, but this app is definitely made for one kind of women. The kind that goes to raves, brunch, likes top 40’s music, into astrology, maybe influencers kind of girls? Not that there’s anything wrong with enjoying those things or being those things. In fact, you should use those girls to market it! It could be like: “Hey girlies! I used Hey! Vina to find my bestie and my girl squad! #girlboss”. However, for the rest of us who might not be one of those things, it’s not made for us. It tries to be niche by asking if we’re party girls, coders, athletic, or artistic; single girls, LGBTQ+, entrepreneurs, stay-at-home moms; and introverts, extroverts, or somewhere in between, but caters to one type of person. Cis gender, happy hour, early 20 year olds. I see a lot of old suggestions and none of it taken into effect. It's not a new app. I may not know anything about coding or marketing, but I don't understand how I don't see any advertising for it. Using MeetUp or Living Social would be a great way to advertise for cheap. Having sponsored Vina events, to boost the app. Or showing free events in your area. Letting users customize the app’s interface like a MySpace page. Hiring relationship therapists to give suggestions on how to get comfortable with people. More safety features for meeting people because you can be liable. Don't ask me to send this to my friends. I'm already friends with them! That's your job! I shouldn't be better at marketing this than you! I'm giving you free suggestions (that you should pay me for), but aren't going to take them. Honestly, I wish I could even organize these events. I'd be good at it! That being said, I'm giving it a three-star review because I see the potential and I do want people to download this app. I love that it has a way to show people activities you want to do and invite them to those things. That's something that could put you over the top than Bumble BFF.

Waste of time

You can’t see any matches or “Vinas” unless you pay for subscription! I paid for the subscription and it was a complete waste of time (barely any messages, very few people on the actual site, no one seemed serious about meeting up). Bumble BFF is 100x times better! It’s a nice idea this Vina app but it clearly has a LOT of work before it’s comparable to other apps.

Dead and a waste of money

I spent $100 for VIP yet there’s no exclusive things for VIP everything is the same so what did I waste $100 on? Other than there being no difference between VIP and regular, the app is absolutely dead. Nobody on there will match with you or talk, you can never have a party (a function on the app to text with random people live) because it needs 3 people and there is never 2 others that are online. What a waste. Definitely had potential, the layout is great.

I’ve always been the one to say the first Hey
Have to swipe and skip a hundred million times
Had to get it better to know just what you like
Now I’m updatin’

You say update like I have never heard before
I’m indecisive but this time I know for sure
I hope that we’re not the only one that feels it all
Are you updatin’?
