Eight minutes to find love in Portugal

▤ Summary

Eight is a dating app launched on 14 February 2026 that aims to recreate real-life meetings by connecting users through eight-minute video calls. Users must record a 30-second video within the app and have it approved to prevent fake profiles and AI-manipulated content. The app runs a nightly browsing window between 8 and 9 pm where mutual interest triggers an immediate eight-minute call, after which users can continue chatting if they wish. Eight is free on the App Store and Google Play, the founders have no current premium plans, and they plan expansion efforts such as entering the Brazilian market.
