Tinder Dating App: Chat & Date

Tinder Dating App: Chat & Date, from Tinder LLC, is built around meeting new people nearby or anywhere in the world. Users set what they are looking for, browse profiles and chat once both sides show interest.

Setting preferences shapes which profiles appear, and a match can be made with someone local or further afield. Profiles combine photos, interests and answers to prompts that reveal more personality. Face Check is designed to confirm that people are who they appear to be, and Astrology Mode shows how compatible two users might be according to their signs. Double Date lets a user pair up with a friend and meet another pair together. For safety, users can tell a friend when they are heading out to meet someone, and chat includes tools intended to keep people in control of conversations. Conversations move at each person's own pace, and the app frames dating as something relaxed rather than a race to meet.

Tinder has 500,000,000+ installs and a 3.9 average from 9,199,164 ratings, which split into 61% five stars and a large 19% one star. It is ad-supported, and in-app purchases range from $0.49 to $299.99 per item, which covers its paid upgrades. It was updated on 2026-09-21, needs Android 9 or newer and is rated Mature 17+. We list 6 versions, the newest being 17.32.6.

Adults who want a big pool of potential matches and like light features such as Double Date will find plenty of activity. Users who do not want to pay for upgrades or see ads may find the free experience limiting.
