Manike
Manike · මැණිකේ · மாணிக்கம்

Built for Sri Lankan Culture.
Unlike Anything Else.

Every feature was designed around how Sri Lankans actually find life partners — through family, culture, astrology, and trust. No Western app offers this.

✦ Cultural Identity Features
🏛️

Poruwa System

Instead of swiping, send a Poruwa — a traditional proposal of interest. Inspired by Sri Lanka's sacred wedding platform. Meaningful from the very first moment.

Lagna · ලග්න Matching

Horoscope compatibility built right into the app. Match on Lagna signs the way Sri Lankan and South Indian families have done for generations — now digitised for modern life.

🌺

Kulaya · කුලය

Express your cultural heritage and community identity with sensitivity and respect. Find someone who shares your roots — handled with the nuance this topic deserves.

🔮

Western Zodiac

For those who follow western astrology, Manike includes your star sign as a separate identity layer alongside Lagna — because Sri Lankans carry both traditions.

Family Approval Badge

Toggle "මගේ පවුල දනිති" — My Family Knows — to show a deep maroon badge on your profile. A powerful trust signal for serious, family-oriented relationships.

Parent Mode

Parents can browse profiles and shortlist matches on behalf of their son or daughter — the child gets final approval. Designed for how families in Sri Lanka actually work.

🔒 Safety & Trust Features
🤝

Chaperone Mode

Invite a trusted friend to silently monitor your chat before a first date. They can see the conversation and step in if anything feels wrong. Safety built into every connection.

NIC Verification

Verify your identity with your Sri Lanka National Identity Card or Passport. Verified users receive a blue badge — so you always know you're talking to a real person.

Sri Lanka Specific
🌐

Three Languages

The entire app — every screen, every prompt — is available in Sinhala, Tamil and English. Switch anytime. Your language, your comfort, your choice.

Sri Lanka Specific

No other dating app in Sri Lanka offers this.

Tinder, Bumble, Hinge — they were built for the West. Manike was built for us.
