Full description
Pryd is a gay dating app and gay chat app built for India's LGBTQ+ community. Whether you're looking for gay dating in Mumbai, Delhi or Bengaluru — or gay chat anywhere in India — meet gay, bisexual and queer men nearby. Free to download. 18+ only.
Privacy comes first: other users never see your exact GPS location, NSFW photos are auto-filtered on profiles, and you decide what you show. Real same-sex dating, genuine connections, zero judgment.
✨ KEY FEATURES
📍 NEARBY DISCOVERY — Gay Dating Near You
Browse gay men around you and match with nearby profiles. Other users see only "Nearby" within 1 km and a rounded distance beyond — never your exact location.

💬 PRIVATE GAY CHAT
Text, images, voice notes and View-Once photos (screenshot protection where your device supports it). Delete messages for everyone, anytime.

Pin your message to the top of their inbox and make a strong first impression.
✈️ TRAVEL MODE
Pryd detects your location automatically — meet gay men in Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune and cities across India.
