Would you use an app that matches people by life goals and consistent habits instead of just interests?

I'm validating an idea before building it.

Most apps connect people based on interests or a few profile questions. But interests change, and anyone can say they're ambitious.

What if people matched based on:

• Long-term goals (financial freedom, starting a business, career growth, fitness, etc.)

• Lifestyle (morning person, night owl, minimalist, etc.)

• Weekly habits (reading 4x/week, coding 5x/week, gym 3x/week)

The key difference is that connections are based on consistent habits, not just answers during sign-up.

For example, if someone says they want financial freedom but never works toward it, they're probably not the best match for someone who consistently reads, builds projects, and learns every week.

I first imagined this for finding a life partner—someone whose actions align with your future, not just your hobbies. The same idea could also help people find co-founders, accountability partners, or career-focused friends.

Would you use something like this? What would make you try it—or what would stop you?

I made an app where people battle photos against each other and the internet decides the winner

​

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.praveen.vsapp

Just launched my first public beta app called Versus.

You can:

Upload comparisons

Join category battles

Vote who wins

Comment on battles

Think:

Outfit battles

Edit wars

Gym progress

Gaming setup comparisons

Design competitions

The goal was to make social media more interactive than likes/follows.

Looking for brutal feedback before scaling it.
