My friend showed me an app called Tinder today (apparently the next big thing) and it looks great fun.

Unfortunately, and somewhat bizarrely, it doesn’t exist for Android.

Does anyone know an equivilent?

Something with the same simple interface.

Looks a bit like [Circle](http://discovercircle.com/).

That seems to be friends - this is just everyone in a close radius
