*DiHola To Offer Enhanced ID Verification, Background Checks and Offline Safety Features*

*DENVER, CO / ACCESSWIRE / July 25, 2023 /* Unpack'd Technologies, a developer smart dating apps designed to create lasting relationships, announced a strategic partnership between DiHola, its dating app for Hispanic and Latino singles, RealMe, an online trust and safety platform, and UrSafe, a premier personal safety app to empower its community of Latin singles with advanced safety features. This collaboration aims to provide a safer and more secure dating experience both on and offline.

With an increase in popularity of dating apps throughout Latin America, there has been a widely reported rise in dating and romance scams. In a recent survey of DiHola's community approaching 500k singles using the dating platform, 54% of respondents indicated that "personal safety" was a concern when meeting someone new. This partnership between DiHola, RealMe and UrSafe addresses these concerns by offering advanced safety features to anyone using the dating platform.

Starting today, users of the dating app will have access to a comprehensive suite of enhanced background checks, personal safety tools, and optional GPS tracking right at their fingertips.

*Key partnership highlights include:*

● ID Verification: Upon signing up, users are presented with the option to verify their profile with RealMe using only a phone number as a first layer of ID verification.

● Enhanced Background Checks: After successfully creating a profile, users can tap anywhere they see a RealMe badge to gain access to enhanced background information that includes arrests, court convictions and sexually based offenses.

● Safety Check: Through UrSafe's partnership with DiHola, users have the option to schedule real-time safety checks to receive visual notifications during offline encounters.

● Emergency SOS: In the event of an emergency or potentially unsafe situation, DiHola users have access to UrSafe's emergency SOS assistance. Users can discreetly notify the nearest authorities and trusted contacts who will receive exact location and "live" audio and video feeds to assist in any necessary actions.

● Check-In: UrSafe's innovative Check-In feature allows DiHola users to set an intended meetup destination. Once the location has been reached, a prompt is shown allowing the user to notify a predefined group, family member or friend once the location is reached.

● Fake Call: A helpful call is often all that is needed to get out of an unwanted situation. Activating UrSafe's Fake Call feature sends an automated phone call to DiHola users to confirm the user is okay.

● Safeword Trigger: A unique handsfree feature to UrSafe allows DiHola users to set a safeword trigger. Using advanced AI and voice activation technology, this feature will identify when a safeword is spoken, sending an immediate notification that must be dismissed before alerting the user's predefined group.

"Our collaboration with RealMe and UrSafe reflects our dedication to creating a safe environment for our passionate community of Latin singles using DiHola," said Zackary Lewis, CEO of Unpack'd Technologies. "Offering ID verification, enhanced background checks and video chat are important to ensure new connections are authentic. This partnership further builds on that confidence by reducing the stress of taking new relationships offline, knowing that we prioritize the personal safety of all DiHola users."

The integration of RealMe and UrSafe will initially target DiHola's users in the U.S., Mexico and Colombia, with rollout planned for its full community of users throughout Latin America in the month ahead.

"We are thrilled to join forces with DiHola to empower its users throughout the U.S. and Latin America with the tools they need for safe and meaningful meetups," said Anthony Oyogoa, Co-Founder of UrSafe. "By offering our unique personal safety features to DiHola, we are committed to providing its users with the additional peace of mind they deserve when meeting someone new."

RealMe's CBO echoed the sentiment, noting their technology is empowering users to make informed decisions about future connections.

"RealMe's integration with DiHola elevates user safety IQ within an environment built on trust," remarks Neil Davis, Chief Business Officer of RealMe. "This partnership sets a new precedence for trust and safety for Hispanic and Latino singles seeking genuine connections."
