Pure has zero built-in background checks — how to vet your matches
Pure does not offer third-party background checks or public profiles. Here is how to verify photos and search public records before an IRL meetup.
Pure, a dating app, lacks built-in background-checking tools and maintains user anonymity. To ensure your safety before meeting up, verify the person's photos, look up their phone number, and run their name through local court records yourself. Although mainstream dating apps promote safety, Pure focuses on minimizing digital footprints, offering temporary profiles that disappear after a set period, and self-deleting conversations.
Before sharing personal contact information, utilize Pure's photo verification badge, True Photo feature, and video chat. Conduct a reverse image search on the photos to check for authenticity. If sharing contact info, verify the phone number through disposable number checkers or services like Zelle or Venmo. Lastly, search public court records and sex offender registries using government resources to confirm the person's legal background.
