Ten years have passed since the launch of online dating giant Tinder and all the apps that followed, changing the way we date forever.
There is now a dating app out there for everyone: Bumble, where the woman has to make the first move; Hinge, believed to be a slightly more relationship-focused version of Tinder; Silver Singles for over 50s; Grindr, for gay, bi, trans, and queer people to connect and Happn, which matches you with people already in your wider social circle.
In fact, there is now such an endless number of apps for different tastes – there’s even specific apps for people who really like clowns or bacon – that around 30% of adults use online dating services in the UK.
Statistics show that others have found long-lasting love as a result of their use. Despite being hailed as a more casual app, Tinder was responsible for pairing 27% of newlyweds who met online in 2021.
It also can’t be denied that dating apps have opened up new avenues for people to meet who wouldn’t have crossed paths otherwise, like mum of one Hannah Whitehall, 40, who met her partner Dan on Tinder last year after just a couple of months using the app.
“I separated from my husband last summer and then decided to join Tinder, more for a laugh than anything, around Christmas,” she said.
“But then I found someone I really liked very quickly, it was so unexpected.”
