Using Tinder to Understand Interpersonal Communication

Nowadays, among all the online dating sites and apps, Tinder is one of the most innovative apps because link users’ contacts from Facebook and the apps’ algorithm immediately gives them an endless photos of potential mates with no questionnaires or forms –as the previous traditional dating sites and apps do-, only faces, and then users need to swipe right if a user likes a person, and by the contrary swipe left if not (Bertoni, 2014).  Tinder is the biggest player in the online dating market. In the last three years, the newest app has reached 30 million users representing one fourth of the total market. But, to our knowledge, the research on addressing what makes this online dating app more or less interactive and how the communicative affordances offered by this online dating app may have an effect on the subsequent romantic outcomes is scarce.
