Not vibes, not vibes-adjacent. Nonna measures where your ethics, faith, culture, and worldview actually overlap — and where they don't — so you know before you invest.
How you weigh honesty, loyalty, kindness, and freedom. Scored on the same scale for every member — no thumb on the scale.
Faith, spirituality, or a secular worldview — described in your words. It's a filter you control, never a gate we impose.
Nonna doesn't demand identical answers. She surfaces where difference is healthy vs. where it will become a real conflict later.
Values are the part of you that decides how you act when it's hard — how you weigh honesty against comfort, freedom against loyalty, tradition against change. On Nonna Picks, values compatibility is one of seven fit dimensions we score, and it's the one that predicts long-term stability more than any other. Photos age, jobs change, cities change; values are the thing that keeps two people pointed in the same direction.
We built a 99-question compatibility quiz with two dedicated values sections — ethics/conscience and faith/culture/worldview — and every answer is stored as an ordinal or categorical score against a fixed scale. When Nonna compares two members, she isn't “reading bios,” she's doing math on the same answer set. Here's the shape of it:
Three real questions from the Nonna Picks quiz
“How important is it that your partner shares your core values and principles?”
Five-point scale, weighted as a dealbreaker signal.
“How do you feel about a partner whose values differ from yours?”
Multiple choice — from "must align closely" to "difference is healthy."
“How open are you to a partner from a different religious or cultural background?”
Ordinal — captures preference direction so like-minded matches score higher without forcing gates.
Scored against every other member on the same answer scale — no keyword-guessing, no cherry-picked traits.
Nonna Picks is an inclusive dating app for singles of every race, religion, nationality, culture, and country. That includes people who are deeply religious, spiritual but not religious, secular and ethics-first, or still figuring it out. The values section is designed so a devout Muslim and a secular humanist can BOTH answer honestly and both get real matches — either with each other, or with people who share their exact worldview. Filters are yours to set. Gates aren't.
When you match with someone on Nonna Picks, every profile shows a per-dimension breakdown — values gets its own row with the actual overlap called out. You'll see “you both weight kindness highest,” or “different tradition, same practice cadence,” not a black-box percentage. That's the whole point of a matchmaker who's on your side: she tells you why, so you can decide.
