The TIM experience

How TIM Works

TIM is built for authentic connections. Instead of swiping on photos, you discover real people through video introductions and social media — the way you'd actually meet someone.

01

Create Your Profile

Sign up in minutes. Upload your best photos, write a bio that captures your personality, and add your YouTube intro video to let people hear your voice and see your energy — not just a static photo.

Profiles with a video intro get 3× more likes
02

Link Your Social World

Connect your TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, and more. You decide what's public — toggle each platform on or off. Your social media tells your story better than any bio ever could.

You control exactly which platforms are visible
03

Browse the Video Feed

Scroll through real video profiles — not just photos. Watch intro videos, read bios, explore social links. Get a genuine feel for who someone is before you ever send a message.

Swipe up to browse, just like your favourite apps
04

Like & Match

Heart someone whose profile resonates with you. If they heart you back, it's a match — and you'll both get a notification. No one-sided pressure, just mutual interest.

Matching is always mutual — no awkward one-sided likes
05

Start Chatting

Once you match, the conversation is yours to start. Message in real time, plan a date, and take it from there. TIM gets out of the way so the real connection can begin.

All messages are private and end-to-end secured

Create a Great Intro Video

Your video intro is the most powerful part of your TIM profile. It's your chance to show your personality, sense of humour, and what makes you unique — before anyone swipes. Here's how to make yours stand out:

1

Keep it 30–90 seconds — long enough to show personality, short enough to hold attention

2

Film in a well-lit space, preferably near a window with natural light

3

Say your name, what you do, and one thing you're passionate about

4

Be yourself — authenticity is more attractive than performance

5

A simple smile and direct eye contact go a long way

6

Upload to YouTube as "Unlisted" and paste the link into TIM

Staying Safe on TIM

Your safety is our top priority. Here are some tips to keep your TIM experience safe and positive.

Never share personal details early

Avoid sharing your home address, workplace, or financial information with someone you just met online.

Meet in public first

For first dates, always choose a public location. Tell a friend where you're going and when to expect you back.

Report suspicious behaviour

Use the Report button on any profile to flag fake profiles, harassment, or inappropriate content. We review all reports.

Block & move on

If someone makes you uncomfortable, block them immediately. Blocked users cannot contact you or view your profile.

Video calls before meeting

Consider a video call before an in-person date to confirm the person is who they say they are.

Trust your instincts

If something feels off, it probably is. You're never obligated to continue a conversation or meet someone.
