About Directory
Directory is an app for connecting with fellow humans. No games, no fees, no secrets. We keep things simple to support people on their journey of experiencing the wonderful diversity of human connection.
Directory is nothing new, we took what already exists and did it right. We offer a traditional dating or friending app interface, without the corporate interest. Directory is volunteer-run. There’s no algorithm, no financial incentive, and we’re not wasting your time or trying to keep you on the app.
The goal for Directory is also to accomodate all kinds of relationship configurations, and support all of our open-minded friends. If the built-in filters aren’t enough, our custom, user-contributed tag system allow anyone to add tags that represent their lifestyle.
Custom tags also allows you to add tags for all your favorite fandoms, games, sports and connect with other local users on a love you already share.
Development Status
Directory is available on Android and in web browsers and we currently have a small hub in the North Carolina Triangle area and would like to expand to NYC. We are currently in maintanence mode. Unfortunately I don’t currently have the bandwidth to add more features or release on iOS. If that is something you’d be interested in helping me with, please check out this page and reach out!

Meet the Developer
Directory is mostly a one-gal operation. I grew up between Virginia and the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Then I graduated with a degree in computer science from UNC Chapel Hill, where I learned to hate modern technology.
And while apps may suck, dating apps have been revolutionary for connecting LGBT people and are now so mainstream that they seem to be here to stay. I wanted to build an alternative that isn’t guided by profit (though I’ll certainly take donations).
Thanks for your support,
- Cecilia (aka Kek)
We'd love to hear from you.
