Bryant Harris, founder and CEO said, "The Jerk Filter is significantly improving the user experience, especially for our female users. Fundamentally, the Jerk Filter groups people of similar personalities. So women that are just on WhosHere to chat and make friends will not be spammed by aggressive guys."

• Let's users add captions to their profile pictures
