What Dating Apps Actually Optimize For (Hint_ Not Your Happiness)

Let’s start with a closer look at how dating apps operate. Most of them use a freemium model, meaning basic features are free but you have to pay for the juicy extras.

You’re not alone! According to a recent study, a staggering 78% of frequent users check their apps more than 10 times a day.
