How’s your love life? With platforms like Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, and OkCupid offering endless opportunities to connect, many people searching for The One think signing up for a dating app should be a go-to for finding their match. However, new research is showing some users are signing off, including ninety percent of Gen Z users.
Those staying on the apps point to their ease of use, accessibility, and the countless success stories of happily coupled friends who met that way.

Arguing No: Melissa Hobley, Global Chief Marketing Officer of Tinder
Nayeema Raza, Journalist and Host of "Smart Girl Dumb Questions", is the guest moderator.
