Summary

With much of people’s dating habits being conducted using dating apps, online safety and well-being have often been a secondary concern for many of the more successful platforms. Meet Jay Dodds, the creator of the Bonkers dating app, a dating platform designed to not only be inclusive with all sexual orientations welcome but also open to casual and long-term relationship seekers alike. With safety as a primary concern, Jay has a refreshing new offering on modern dating and relationships to share. KEY TAKEAWAYS Jay has previously worked in sound design for theatre and live productions of all kinds from musicals to stunt shows. Other dating apps tend to go for a large volume of users to meet their investor’s needs primarily through advertising. Bonkers has a full verification process and many added safety features. Bonkers is split into two sections, a casual and a long-term relationship section so the two aims cannot cause conflict. A star rating system encourages people to be polite and respectful. The app allows for video calling, phone calls and voice notes. With verified photos, you can feel assured before you commit to a date that you have seen the real person. BEST MOMENTS ‘Our whole mission is to put the fun back into dating while keeping people safe.’-Jay ‘That’s when we really started to drive it in the direction of becoming the Uk’s safest dating app.’-Jay ‘Being a relationship coach, the nightmare stories I hear about people going onto apps and looking for relationships and they end up being ghosted and all manner of things, led down the garden path by people that say they want relationships.’-John ‘We’ve had to brainstorm on what all the issues are that users are currently facing and continue to face and how do we address it because, again, I think that all the other apps are just growing they’re not really thinking about this.’-Jay ‘You’re paying to constantly create this false sense of yourself of what you think you should be giving to the world.’-Jay ‘When you can really genuinely start to like yourself, you then get that confidence where you can love someone else.’-Jay GUEST RESOURCES  bonkersapp.com VALUABLE RESOURCES  Links: www.johnkennycoaching.comThe Bicycle Affect: https://youtu.be/oO7XZGvdWnoRelationship Video course and 1-2-1 coaching: Relationship Ready Online Programme - John Kenny (johnkennycoaching.com)To get in touch - email – [email protected] or book a complimentary call –https://calendly.com/johnkennycoaching/30minIf people want to order a copy of the book then they can just pay postage of £4.95 (RRP £8.99) - www.johnkennycoaching.com/podcast-book-offerWant to be able to address the relationship issues in your life? - Why not book in for a complimentary call and we can discuss how you can get the new started with some new types of relationships - https://calendly.com/johnkennycoaching/30minThe Relationship Guy Podcast - https://omny.fm/shows/the-relationship-guy  CONTACT METHOD Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/johnkennycoaching LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-kenny-coaching Insta – https://www.instagram.com/johnkennycoaching/ Twitter – https://www.twitter.com/johnkennycoach} YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHTj9x6Tlo7lcIJITyx-tgQ Clubhouse - @relationshipguy   ABOUT THE HOST  I am John Kenny, Award Winning Relationship Coach.Coaching people to experience healthy loving relationships.
