History
Raya was created by Daniel Gendelman in 2014 and went live in February 2015.[3] Gendelman had the idea for the app while studying in Israel.[3] The app is only available on Apple devices.[3]
Raya's current[when?] one-month subscription is US$24.99.[citation needed]
Format
Users link their profile to their Instagram account, add personal information, including their background, profession, and interests, and must create a photo montage for their profile.[5] After creating a profile, users interact and connect with the global Raya community through features such as a map and member directory.
Privacy
Raya includes a number of features focused on its members’ privacy. If a user screenshots a profile within the app, Raya warns the user that they may be removed from the platform, and repeated screenshots lead to termination of the user’s account.[6]
