From January 2023 to December 2024, dating app installs and sessions saw a 13% year-over-year drop. Despite this overall decrease, sessions remained resilient, particularly during key seasonal periods.""
"Tidio, an AI customer service software suite, ran a survey (1,191 people) of those using dating apps. One of the things they found was only 12% of the respondents were content with their online-dating experience. Additionally, when it comes to the frustrations of online daters, they have doubts whether the partner will look like the person in their photo (25%) and they fear they will match with profiles that aren't real (25%)."

From January 2023 to December 2024, installs and sessions declined about 13% year-over-year, though sessions showed seasonal resilience. A Tidio survey of 1,191 users found only 12% were content, with 25% worried about misleading photos and 25% fearing fake profiles.
