Earlier this year, the company announced the product at its F8 developer conference, and it’s now testing it internally with employees.
Evidence of the feature recently appeared on Twitter, thanks to independent app researcher Jane Manchun Wong.
“This product is for US Facebook employees who have opted-in to dogfooding Facebook’s new dating product,” a screenshot read. “The purpose for this dogfooding is to test the end-to-end product experience for bugs and confusing UI. This is not meant for dating your coworkers.”
The image also noted employees were instructed to use “dummy data” for their dating profiles, and that the information would be deleted before a public launch.
Other photos show options to list your gender, location, and the genders you’re interested in.
While The Verge confirmed that Facebook is indeed testing the product, it did not provide any other details. However, during the F8 conference, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said, "This is going to be for building real, long-term relationships — not just for hookups."
