This online dating app was launched in 2012, and by 2014, it was already administering around one billion swipes a day. Its popularity rose since it had an appealing user experience. Unlike the ‘old fashioned way’ of meeting people where you have to get dressed and go out, it only requires a swipe to the right if you are interested in the person or to the left if not. A regular user can use the app with certain limitations, but one can upgrade his account to premium at a fee.
