Modern technologies are actively developing and improving and helping people in all areas of their lives. The sphere of personal relationships and love is no exception. For people who are in search of their soulmate, developers create various dating apps that are installed on a smartphone or computer, and according to the specified parameters, there are people ready to get acquainted. Communication in dating apps creates comfortable conditions for people to communicate and helps people to meet and later make a family.
One of the most popular dating apps around the world is Tinder. The light and user-friendly interface makes online dating look like a game and has given users more control due to the swipe methodology (Heilweil). Many people registered in this application during the coronavirus pandemic when restrictions on movement and being in public places were imposed. Although dating applications are famous, they still have a potential danger, which is that people are ready to exchange personal data, and attackers can use them for harmful purposes. Still, people continue to use dating apps and meet people worldwide.
In conclusion, modern times are characterized by the development of more advanced technologies that make people’s lives more comfortable and more manageable. It also affected the personal life and dating of people. Various developers have created applications that allow people to find their soulmates, communicate, meet, and start families. These applications have become especially relevant during the pandemic. People can find partners nearby and around the world, which significantly increases the popularity of these applications. In addition to the advantages of dating applications, there is a significant drawback, which is that people transmit personal data that can fall into the hands of intruders, which has brought several disadvantages to users.
