RoGu

A dating app? ...well....I guess. I could have a look I suppose...if you think that it'll help. I didn't know that they had dating spot maps...

Romantic Guidance, or RoGu, is an app that is operational on the Modis of The Station. It was created and is run by Yelloworks.
This app offers maps and reviews of dating spots and gift shops, dress suggestions for dates, date guides, date tracking, date planning tools, shared bucket lists, and tests and games to play with the dating partner.
While this section is open to anyone with an account, it also contains a feature for people looking for others to date, private group chats, hotel maps and reviews, expert advice, and couple therapy. This section is open to adults with an account and a subscription.

Public Section

This section is for people of all ages and is free to use. While this space is mostly community curated, there is some moderation happening.

Maps

People can place pins on a map and leave reviews on how date-friendly a spot is, as well as reviews of gift shops.

Gifts and date spots

In addition to the reviews on the map of The Station, there is a feature where people can review and add suggestions for date spots and personalized gift ideas.

Dress suggestions

While all stores on The Station have their products for sale on the local Internet, not all stores are connected. However, RoGu has connected most clothing stores with this feature. Users can add which clothing items they have in their virtual closet. This feature will suggest which other clothing items will go well with the items they already have and suggest which clothing items they should buy or rent from the stores connected to the app. These clothing items are items that other people have rated high and are popular among the users. The algorithm will suggest outfits based on these clothing items. It is also possible to rate or vote on outfits that people have put together.

Date guides

The community creates date guides in text and video. The company moderates these guides, and some guide creators even get paid.

Date planning & tracking

This feature lets the users keep track of their previous dates and interactions with specific individuals, including details such as where they went, what they did, and how the date went. This helps users remember essential information and plan future dates more effectively. It also has a collaborative section where users can plan dates with their partners and schedule activities. This helps streamline the planning process and ensures that both partners' preferences are considered.

Bucket list

Couples can create and share bucket lists of activities and experiences they want to do together. The app provides suggestions and inspiration for creating memorable moments and shared adventures.

Tests & quizzes

The app offers compatibility assessments and quizzes designed specifically for new couples to help them understand each other's preferences, communication styles, and relationship goals.

Adult Section

This section is for adults with a subscription. It is curated by the company that runs the app, and all spaces are heavily moderated except the private chat rooms. However, a moderator from the company can be invited into a chat if people in the chat are uncomfortable.

Dating app

This feature is significant and contains what most dating apps do. People enter their profiles and preferences to find a quick hookup or the light of their life.

Private chats

While most messaging on the dating app is public to all people in the adult section, there is a private chat feature called DMing. Those who want to chat with one or more people can add any number of people to these private chats.

Maps

On these maps, hotels are already marked, and people have reviewed the hotels for as long as the app has existed, so they are very extensive.

Expert advice

There is a feature where users or couples can speak to a dating expert. These experts are people who work for the company. If the users want to speak to a specific expert, they have to book an appointment. If they want to talk to anyone available, the service is open 24/7.

Couple therapy

This feature is only available by booking an appointment. The therapy can be done remotely or in person.
