How it works

Three steps to the name you both love

1

Swipe on your own

Each of you swipes through names on your own phone: right if you like it, left if you don't. Your passes stay private.

2

It's a match

When you both like the same name, it becomes a match, on both phones at once.

3

Decide together

Build a shared shortlist, invite family to vote on it, and choose your final name when you're ready.

Calm to use, at any hour

Late-night name hunting is part of the journey. asma follows your phone's light or dark mode, with gentle colours and clear Arabic script.

Private by design

Be honest. Only the names you both love are shared.

Your partner never sees the names you passed. Family members only see the shortlist you choose to share. No ads, no tracking, and you can delete your account at any time in the app.
