If you love chess but can never convince any of your friends to play with you, this new dating app could be perfect for you.
Mates is a new dating app for chess lovers, that lets you set up a profile and look for someone who’s keen for a chess game.

The Mates app is free and available worldwide in the Apple Store and on Android.
