These days it can also come with a hefty price tag.
It's not just the cost of drinks or dinner to consider. Before you've even got to the awkward, age-old dance of who is going to foot the bill, you might have already forked out hundreds of pounds on a dating site.
What do the apps cost? While some dating services are free, many now include tempting extra features that they claim will help you find more compatible connections, get noticed sooner and go on more dates. All for a fee, of course. We looked at what the main ones offer.
Tinder The app is free but you can upgrade to the paid version "for an enhanced Tinder experience", its website says.
Tinder's press team wouldn't share exact figures, but told us prices start at £7 and go up to about £50 a month.
There are three subscription tiers offered at different prices: plus, gold or platinum. In 2021, the plus option ranged from £4.99 to £19.94 a month, gold was found to cost between £13.99 to £29.49, and platinum £18.14 to £36.49.
Note that different users have been charged different prices based on factors including their age, an investigation by the consumer group Which? found.
Hinge With the regular, free version of the app you can send eight likes a day and message someone you have matched. It claims you'll go on at least twice as many dates with its two paid-for subscriptions.
