1. Spark

This app revolves on the tube, similar to ‘Rush Hour Crush’ but on your phone. Every day, there must be millions of singletons on the tube, right? Users transmit one’spark’ every day when they see someone they like on the app – so choose carefully.

2. Tinder

For a reason, the king of dating apps is linked with online dating. Tinder, which has been around since 2012, has a well-deserved reputation for meetups, but it’s also become renowned as an app where many married couples have met. It appears to be used by everyone and their dog, which is both a blessing and a curse. Prepare to swipe through hundreds of frogs before that fittie mysteriously returns the favor.

3. Bumble

The unique selling point of Bumble is that the girls get to make the first move. (This can be interpreted as feminism, but it can also be interpreted as obnoxious when you’re not in the mood to put up the extra effort.) After that, the men have 24 hours to respond before the match is over. Which is aggravating if the man hasn’t checked his app in a few days and so lost out on the love of his life. Sigh. However, FYI, there are absolutely hotter guys on this app.

4. Hinge

This newer app is unique because you can remark not just on photographs, but also on profiles. It’s aimed for folks who want a little bit more than simply a meetup (read: relationship types) (so try and be super funny if you can). It’s not just about swiping right on faces; if s/he makes a hilarious remark, that’s a conversation starter. When a Time Out writer tested the app, one of the matches sought a threesome right away. Hinge may not be being utilized for what it was designed for just yet… Give it time; it’s only the beginning.

5. Happn

Romantic or just lazy? Once claims that its matchmakers handpick one match a day for users. If you’re not feeling said match, you’ve got to wait a whole 24 hours for the next one. Basically it’’s like the slowest version of Tinder in the entire world.

7. Grindr

The app, which has been there since 2009 and displays you which males in your area are also on the app, has been around for men wishing to meet men. Because I live in London, I have a lot of options. Grindr is notorious for meetups, but that doesn’t rule out the possibility of long-term partnerships.

8. HER

This app, created specifically for lesbian, bisexual, and queer people, is more than just a dating app, though you can find dates on it. You may update your status, share interesting articles you’ve read, and even invite people to events. It’s great for meeting new people (and keeping in touch with old ones), as well as meetups and romance.

9. Huggle

Some dating apps have a friendship component as well as dating. Huggle could be a good place to start if you’re new to London and want to make some new friends. Huggle may might find you a new BFF by matching users based on common hobbies and locales (clubs, pubs, and restaurants frequented by users are taken into account). That can’t be a bad thing, right?

10. Raya

Do you want to date a celebrity? You do, of course. Raya meticulously screens its users to see whether they are cool enough to be featured on the platform — think models, social media influencers, and journalists. While users aren’t allowed publicly discuss Raya, it’s been reported that Cara Delevingne, Diplo, and, yes, Moby are among the app’s users. Those would be some rather intriguing dates…
