FAQs & Help

Yep, but so many people have told us they are sick of only being judged on how they look. You can’t stop your brain making those instant judgments - it’s biology. But chemistry’s important too! And that’s about much more than looks. With Jigsaw, you’re more likely to make a genuine connection as you get to know the whole person, not just a profile photo.

We hope you never have to block someone - ugh - but if you need to, please report them to us asap. Safety is paramount so we have a few ways to report someone: In the top right hand corner of a profile, there are three dots - click here and tap Report. You can report mid-chat by clicking the three dots on the right side of the chat screen. Sliding a Chat to the left on the Match screen also shows the options to Report or Block. If you would like to discuss with us, please email support@jigsaw.co. If you’ve reported a user by accident, unfortunately you cannot unblock them yourself. Please send their name to our team who will investigate and sort it out.

Jigsaw welcomes everyone, whatever your gender or sexuality. It’s not for you if you don’t want to put personality first and only care about how people look.

Jigsaw users will see everything in your photo except your face - so think about what you do want them to see - and what tantalizing clues you give! Where are you, what are you wearing, what’s in the background? It’s better to use photos where your face doesn’t fill too much of it, or it will just be a giant jigsaw puzzle with zero clues.

Jigsaw is the dating app that reveals your face so you get to know someone's personality first. We're committed to providing the best online and offline dating experience and the puzzle is a part of that! The puzzle allows you to give people a chance and start with a conversation, just like you would in real life! You'll get to know each other, piece by piece, as you exchange messages with your match.

Jigsaw is available in the US and UK. Saving singles from superficial dating on both sides of the pond!

Each face is covered in a 16-piece jigsaw puzzle. We've already removed a piece so you get a sneak peak underneath; more pieces will disappear when you send a message. You can see on each profile how many pieces will reveal per message. Once you’ve revealed the puzzle, you can see their whole photo and unlock links to their socials if they’ve added them.

Jigsaw removes the split-second judgement which happens too often on other dating apps. There's method to the madness we promise! Faces are covered with a jigsaw puzzle and you have to message your matches to reveal what’s underneath, piece by piece.

Jigsaw users will see everything in your photo except your face, so think about what you do want them to see, and what clues you give! Where you are, what are you wearing, what’s in the background?
