★ How Eight works

Six steps from stranger
to someone.

Eight is the only love app where the chat is earned. Here's exactly how the room works, step by step. No swipes. No filters. No endless texting. Just eight minutes of real face.

01
★ Sign up

Record a 30-second intro.

Not a photo. A video. 30 seconds of you, talking. Why are you here. What you're looking for. What makes you smile. A real human reviews every video before you get in. No catfishing. No bots. No filters.

🎥
02
★ Wednesday or Sunday

Show up at 8 PM Lisbon.

Eight isn't always-on. The room opens twice a week, at exactly 8 PM Lisbon time. Everyone shows up at the same moment, which is what makes it the most-attended dating event in Portugal. Set the alarm.

🕗
03
★ The room is open

Scroll the room.

Live videos of the people inside the room right now. You don't see ages first or filters first. You see 30 seconds of someone being themselves. If you like what you see, tap the smile.

📱
04
★ The mechanic

Mutual smile = call.

If they smile back, the call starts. Both of you have to say yes before anything happens. There is no "match and never speak". There is no inbox-full-of-ghosts. Smile, then call.

💜
05
★ Eight minutes

Live video, capped at 8 min.

Long enough to know if there's chemistry. Short enough that no one wastes anyone's evening. Calls aren't recorded. The conversation lives only in your head. The exit button is always there.

06
★ The unlock

Both say yes → chat unlocks.

If both of you say yes after the call, the chat opens. You can message, plan a real date, exchange whatever you want. If either says no, you both move on. No awkward unmatch. No ghosting. No drag.
