It is not known how much the interests of people are taken into account if they are not particularly eager to be found. Functionally, the application is superior in some ways, and in some ways inferior to the capabilities of a regular search on the social network.

To search, it is enough to fill in the columns with the name, surname of a person, his approximate age and other data, whether it is a city or district of residence.
