Tinder audiencesTinder is one of the most popular location-based casual dating apps in the United States. The app was one of the first “swiping apps” where audiences used a swiping motion to select pictures of other users by swiping right for good matches and swiping left on a photo for no match and moving on to the next one. As of January 2019, the vast majority of Tinder users in the United States were male. About two thirds of active Tinder users accessed the app on a monthly basis and the remaining third of U.S. users were daily active users.
