Looking for Love? Most Don’t Like Dating Apps
While online dating has grown in popularity, less than a third of Americans have a favorable opinion of dating apps.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 31% of American Adults have a favorable opinion of online dating apps like Tinder and OkCupid, including just six percent (6%) whose view of such apps is Very Favorable. These findings have not changed much since June 2021. Forty-four percent (44%) now view dating apps unfavorably, including 18% who have a Very Unfavorable opinion of online dating apps. Another 26% are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
