How Codedruns works
Four steps, all free. You decide who can talk to you.
Sign up with your real first name
You need an email address, a password, your date of birth, the city you live in, and whether you live in Nigeria or the United Kingdom. You must be 18 or over. We email you a 6-digit code to confirm your address; you can browse straight away, but you need to enter the code to send messages.
Build a profile people want to answer
Add up to four photos. Every photo is re-saved on our server, which strips the hidden location data phones attach to pictures. Write a few honest lines: what you do, where your family is from, what a good Sunday looks like. Keep phone numbers and social handles out of your bio; share them in chat once you trust someone.
Discover the other side
If you live in the UK, Discover shows members in Nigeria first, and the other way round. You can switch to either country or both, set an age range, and show only people with photos. Press like on anyone you would happily meet for a coffee.
Chat when it is mutual
When two people like each other, it is a match and a chat opens for both of you. Nobody else can message you. Messages arrive in a few seconds, you can see when yours have been read, and the Chats tab shows how many are waiting.
Install it on your phone
Codedruns works in any modern browser and can be installed like an app. On Android, open the site in Chrome and tap Install app. On iPhone, open it in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. It opens full screen with its own icon.
If something feels wrong
Every profile and every chat has Block and Report. You never have to explain why. Read more on our safety and respect page.
