Ruck: Gay Dating & Chat

No intrusive ads. Unlimited messages. No bots. Free features that stay free.

Ruck is built for gay, bi, and trans people. For connection, not extraction. No intrusive ads. No bots. Core features stay free. Forever. Just a clean, fast app that works.

NEARBY Browse who's around you. Real profiles, real people. No clutter, no noise.

HE'S INTO IT TOO Your interests only appear to people who share them. If he can see it, he's into it too. Stats work the same way — they only show when you both share them.

STORIES Share photos and videos that disappear after 24 hours. You choose your audience. No one else sees them.

EVENTS Create or join local events. Public or private. See who's going and meet beyond the grid.

CONTROL Go incognito. Signal you're free right now. Disable incoming likes. Stand out in the grid with a Big Boy profile.

MESSAGING. UNLIMITED No message limits. No history paywalls. Conversations are free and stay free.

PRIVACY BY DESIGN We collect only what's needed to run the app. No social account linking. No data sales. No silent repurposing. No album screenshots.

WHY RUCK EXISTS Gay dating apps became investor products. Growth at all costs. Monetization first. Users second. We think this space deserves better. Our governance model protects core principles permanently — no data sales, no feature stripping, no corporate slide. This isn't branding. It's a legal structure. An app protected by law. We're not building to scale and cash out. We're building to stay.

OPTIONAL MEMBERSHIP A weekly, monthly, or yearly subscription unlocks premium features including unlimited browsing, incognito mode, explore by location, enhanced filters, multiple private albums, advanced messaging, and more. Subscriptions are billed through your App Store account and auto-renew unless cancelled. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store settings.
