Lex is the free text-centered social and dating app for nonbinary, transgender people and lesbian, bisexual, queer, trans women to make meaningful connections. Inspired by old-school newspaper personal ads, Lex encourages queer connections that go beyond swiping on selfies. `
With over 8 million messages sent and people in over 200 countries, Lex is the digital hub for queer folks to chat, date, and make friends worldwide.
Lex is queer owned and operated – we're the social and dating app that centers queer community. Mainstream dating and social platforms see LGBTQ+ people as an afterthought. Lex was created specifically for queer identifying individuals and is designed to meet the unique needs of our community.
WORDS FIRST, SELFIES SECOND 💌
Personals are short chunks of text where people describe their wants and needs.
Write a post describing who you are and what you’re looking for— a steamy queer date, a book club to honor lesbian authors, or gardening tips from gays and prepare for your inbox to be flooded with interested queer people from your area, or from all over the world.
Or write a missed connection— a type of post that gives you a second chance at connecting with someone you previously met or saw in public. Someone might post a missed connection about a LGBTQ looking cutie who smiled at them in line at the farmer's market last weekend but was too shy to say hello.
FEATURES 🦋
- Filter posts and missed connections by location, age, and keyword.
- Make a profile: create a username, write-in your pronouns, link to Instagram (if you want to).

- Chat with queers in your neighborhood or around the world
- Use search and filter functions to find exactly who you’re looking for
- Build your profile, link your Instagram account (or don't!)

- Lo-fi, low-key, gentle, sexy
- Free to use, 18+
