Founder Justin McLeod says it&#8217;s all about vulnerability &#8211; by putting yourself out there \u201chonestly\u201d in a series of Q&#038;A prompts, you&#8217;re bound to make better connections than just swiping on who you fancy.<\/p>\n<p>Plus it uses AI to learn the kind of people you like &#8211; read more about it in his interview with the Evening Standard here (McLeod&#8217;s own love story is also worth a read).<\/p>\n<p>Despite the pandemic, Hinge&#8217;s downloads are up 82 per cent this year so it&#8217;s the perfect platform for finding your own lockdown love story.<\/p>\n<p>The app has also just launched <a href=\"https:\/\/hookupdate.net\/nl\/skout-overzicht\/\">https:\/\/hookupdate.net\/nl\/skout-overzicht\/<\/a> video and voice prompts for those who want to continue virtual dating or love a voice note: once you&#8217;re both on the video call, open \u201cvideo prompts\u201d and you&#8217;ll both be shown a card ranging from warm-up questions to \u201cdive in deep\u201d topics which help you skip straight to the important stuff. Are you brave enough?<\/p>\n<h2>Elate: for people who hate ghosting<\/h2>\n<p>Elate was launched by Londoner Sanjay Panchal this year in response to research that found ghosting to be the number one complaint amongst dating app users: 95% of those surveyed this year say they&#8217;ve been ghosted and 75% admit to doing it to others.<\/p>\n<p>Elate&#8217;s solution? It only lets you chat with three matches at once and will let you know if one moves on to chat to someone new (so you&#8217;re not left wondering and waiting).<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>In line with this more respectful approach, it also shows potential matches&#8217; bios over photos so you&#8217;re not distracted by a pretty face until you know they&#8217;re worth it.<\/p>\n<h2>OKCupid: to match on what matters<\/h2>\n<p>Founded in the US in 2004, OkCupid revolutionised the online dating landscape by featuring multiple-choice questions in order to match members. It was also the first dating app to engineer a non-binary dating experience, with 22 gender options and 13 sexual orientations.<\/p>\n<h2>The Intro: to swerve small-talk<\/h2>\n<p>Launched in London a year ago, The Intro is all about meeting IRL instead of weeks of pre-date chit-chat. When two users match, they can&#8217;t chat, instead they schedule a date. Just tell the app when you&#8217;re next free and it&#8217;ll work out a mutual slot and suggest meeting spots (currently in parks) between the two of you &#8211; like your own dating concierge.<\/p>\n<p>Video dates are now available if you can&#8217;t meet in person and there&#8217;s a \u2018speed date&#8217; option for two-minute virtual dates with other online members.<\/p>\n<p>Profiles are the classic Hinge or Bumble six-picture format with bios and Q&#038;As. The added bonus? Friends, family (and even exes) can contribute to your profile.<\/p>\n<h2>Tinder: for the casual hook-up<\/h2>\n<p>Arguably the most well-known dating app, Tinder was once the place for social introverts to meet their significant other. Now it&#8217;s a tool for swiftly finding an insignificant one-night stand &#8211; whether you&#8217;re straight, gay, bi, transgender or gender-fluid.<\/p>\n<p>In 2015, Vanity Fair declared Tinder as the ultimate place that twentysomethings go to \u201chit it and quit it\u201d, claiming that the app was solely responsible for a \u201cdating apocalypse\u201d. While die-hard romantics might agree, others say the app has revolutionised the process of hunting down no-strings fun at relatively little expense. The tool basically works by swiping yes or no based on each user&#8217;s picture.<\/p>\n<h2>Raya: to meet a celebrity<\/h2>\n<p>Ever wanted to date a celebrity? This \u2018illuminati Tinder&#8217; app Raya is the place to go if you&#8217;re after a bedfellow with money and fame. Cara Delevingne, Ruby Rose and Elijah Wood are all reported to be members of Raya, the world&#8217;s most exclusive dating app, and rumour has it Amy Schumer met her husband on here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3693],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.0 -
