Muzz (formerly Muzmatch) is the world's largest Muslim dating app with over 10 million members across 190 countries. For Muslim singles in East Africa — particularly Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda — it is by far the best option for halal-compliant dating and marriage matching.

Full Review
Muzz was built specifically for Muslims seeking halal connections, with features like a Wali (chaperone) mode that allows a trusted person to observe conversations, and the ability to hide your photos until a mutual interest is established. The app has strong penetration in Kenya's coastal regions (Mombasa, Malindi, Lamu) and in cities with significant Muslim populations across East Africa. The free tier allows messaging and matching, with premium Muzz Gold unlocking more daily matches, read receipts, and the ability to see who liked you. Pricing is around KES 800/month for Gold — very affordable. M-Pesa is supported as a payment option in Kenya, which is a significant advantage. The user base skews 24-38 and is marriage-focused rather than casual-dating focused. Muzz has strong moderation — explicit content is banned and the platform is built around Islamic values. The 2022 rebrand from Muzmatch to Muzz modernised the interface significantly.
