Best dating apps 2017

Nearly one out of four relationships starts online and this number is likely to get even higher with regard to our reliance on technology. Our mobile devices are becoming more and more powerful and we tend to use dating apps right from our smart devices. Recently, there have been a great number of dating apps out in the market and new ones are being launched every day. So, you might get confused to choose the best app to use. In this article, I will introduce 4 best dating apps you can choose from.

Best dating apps – Tinder

Tinder is definitely number one in the list of best dating apps. In order to use Tinder, users must have a Facebook account. All you need to do is to set up a concise profile that consists of a 500-character bio and up to six images. Tinder shows you a photo, name, and age. You can swipe right (to like them), left (to pass), or up if you want to use one of your precious “super likes” to show them you really really like them.

As Tinder is one of the most popular dating apps, you definitely have a higher chance of meeting new people. Tinder is available on Google Play and App Store.

Best dating apps – OkCupid

One of the few dating apps that does not require Facebook account is OkCupid. In order to use OkCupid you create a username and fill out a very long profile. You can answer questions, giving both your answer and what you’d like your potential match’s answer to be.

OkCupid has as many downsides as Tinder, and fewer positive ones, with the exception of learning a lot more about your potential dating partners. This app is free to download for android and iPhone.

Best dating apps – Bumble

Bumble is a dating app which is very similar to Bumble but with one big key difference. On Bumble, only women can start a conversation once a match has been made. Women have 24 hours to do so before their connection disappears. The idea behind this feature is to save women from receiving piles of messages from men.

You can download Bumble for Android and iPhone for free.

Best dating apps – Happn

this dating app is very quick and easy to set up and use. The profile creation is pretty standard. You add photos, age, profession, and interests, and you can also specify what you feel like doing.

Happn uses the GPS location on your mobile phone to track your movements. If you’ve been within 250 meters of a potential match, then you’ll see their profile. So, this dating app for finding matches in your neighbourhood. Happn never displays your position to other users in real-time, and you can also block users if you have stalking concerns.
