Bang With Friends: Dating App Allows Facebook Users To Hook-Up On Mobile (VIDEO)

New App Lets Facebook Friends Poke Each Other -- Literally

The term "friends with benefits" has taken on a whole new meaning.

Hook-up apps from Plenty of Fish and Grindr taking over the dating world, but if you're not into meeting strangers, why not rethink your own network of friends?

We know there are lots of people out there who creep Facebook and send random messages to potential love interests, but the website Bang With Friends is different, and now it's available on mobile for iPhone and Android.

According to TechCrunch, here's how it works: You log in and privately peruse which of your friends you'd like to bang. If the friends you've selected have picked you as well, you're in business. The app connects you, and then you can figure out the rest. And if there is no match, no one needs to know, right?

Actually, the app isn't as anonymous as people think. It turns out Bang With Friends was totally private until Facebook's Graph Search rolled out. Now, you can simply find out which of your Facebook friends are using the hook-up app by searching "My friends who use Bang With Friends."

The announcement of the app was made just days after the company said it was approaching its millionth user. That's a lot of potential friends with common interests!
