If you’re on a dating app, you’re not alone. I remember a time when dating apps were not necessarily rare, but not to the point where not everyone in the world was using one. Now, literally every friend I have who is single is on a dating app. As it turns out, in Michigan, one dating app stands above the rest.

DatingNews.com just released a new study that pinpoints the most popular dating apps in the U.S. by state. Lots of the big names are in there, like ChristianMingle, Match, Tinder, Coffee Meets Bagel, eharmony, Bumble and more. In the article, they explains, “Location is one of the most important factors in the online dating scene, especially if you’re hoping to meet a new person quickly. Dating app popularity can vary widely by region, so it’s good to have a working knowledge of the trends, habits, and patterns in each state.”

According to the story, “serious dating sites like Match and eharmony have remained popular generation after generation, serving everyone from Baby Boomers to Gen Z.” So, those are obvious bread-and-butter ones.

Michigan: Popular Dating App Result

So, which dating app is the most popular in Michigan? We are apparently traditionalists, because it’s Match. They call it a “serious dating service established in 1995.” Since the most people in Michigan are on this app, you technically have the best odds of finding someone using Match. According to a different article from DatingAdvice.com, the most popular dating app in America right now is not Match, it’s Tinder. Match is actually No. 14 on the list.
