Definition: dating app


An application that enables people to meet for a date and possible lasting relationship. For example, apps such as (in alphabetical order) Bumble, Coffee Meets Bagel, eHarmony, Hinge, Match, okCupid, WooPlus and Tinder are designed to let people view pictures and profiles of subscribers that the app's algorithm determines are a possible match. If a prospective date is appealing, a round of messages is usually the next step. Dating apps are also available based on religion and age levels. See Tinder and swipe right.
