Is It Time to Break Up with Dating Apps?

How’s your love life? With platforms like Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, and OkCupid offering endless opportunities to connect, many people searching for The One think signing up for a dating app should be a go-to for finding their match. However, new research is showing some users are signing off, including ninety percent of Gen Z users. Those staying on the apps point to their ease of use, accessibility, and the countless success stories of happily coupled friends who met that way. Others say dating apps aren’t offering authentic connections. A paradox of choice has also developed, with a belief there’s always someone else who you can connect with, which has made people less satisfied with their options. Before we continue to swipe right, we debate the question: Is It Time to Break Up with Dating Apps? Arguing Yes: Maria Avgitidis, Matchmaker and CEO at Agape Match Arguing No: Melissa Hobley, Global Chief Marketing Officer of Tinder Nayeema Raza, Journalist and Host of "Smart Girl Dumb Questions", is the guest moderator.
