Connect X and Threads: Meet New People While Scrolling, Date Safer
Ever encountered fake accounts on dating apps? Chatted for hours only to discover the photos were stolen from someone else? According to industry research, up to 20% of profiles on some dating platforms may not be real people. Now, XO's X (formerly Twitter) and Threads integration is here to change that—making your dating experience safer and more authentic.
Why Connect Your Social Accounts?
In 2026, social media verification has become the gold standard for proving authenticity. A social account you've maintained for years with real interactions proves you're a real person far better than any photo ever could.
This is why major dating apps like Tinder have introduced verification badges—but XO takes it further by letting you use your actual social accounts as proof of identity.
Three Benefits at a Glance
1. Boost Your Social Credit Score
Linking social accounts increases your trust score, making other users more confident in connecting with you.
2. Eliminate Catfishing and Romance Scams
Fake accounts rarely have genuine social media presence—linking exposes them instantly, more effectively than reverse image search.
3. Match While You Scroll
The coolest part? XO finds compatible matches based on your interests while you're using X or Threads.
What is Social Credit?
Social Credit is XO's Decentralized Identity Score (DID Score). The more verifications you complete, the higher your score—and the more trustworthy your profile appears. Reach 377+ points to earn the verified blue checkmark badge.

How Does Match-While-You-Scroll Work?
This is one of XO's most innovative features, inspired by early concepts like Loveflutter BLUE that matched verified Twitter users based on their social activity.
After linking your social accounts, XO analyzes your public interests and interaction patterns to find people you'll actually click with.
How It Works
Step 1. Interest Sync
Topics you follow and content you engage with are converted into interest tags.
Step 2. AI Smart Matching
XO's AI recommends people with similar tastes and interests.
Step 3. Conversation Starters
When you match, the app highlights shared interests—no more awkward openers.
Imagine this: You post about hiking on Threads, and XO matches you with someone who loves the outdoors too. No need to stress about what to talk about—you already have common ground.
Privacy Protection: We Only Read Public Info
Worried about privacy? Rest assured, XO's permissions are designed to be minimal:
You can unlink anytime in settings, and XO will immediately delete all synced data. Fully compliant with Meta's privacy standards.
Why Scammers Can't Fake This
Fraudsters can steal photos, but they can't steal a social media account you've built over years. This is why social linking is more reliable than traditional verification.
Key feature: When you see an X or Threads icon on someone's post in XO, it means that post was synced from their real social account—proving they're the actual account owner and the photos can't be stolen.
When you see someone has linked their X or Threads, you can:
