    <\/p>\n

    The online dating applications industry has literally exploded and companies receive funding in the hundreds of millions of dollars and are valued in the billions. China is not an exception and there are plenty of both local and foreign companies that target the Chinese online dating market.<\/p>\n

    If you plan to visit or move to China<\/a> and look for the best dating applications, don\u2019t look any further. In this article, we list some of the biggest and most popular dating apps you can find.<\/p>\n

    <\/strong><\/p>\n

    1. Tan Tan (\u63a2\u63a2)<\/h2>\n

    Founded in 2014, Tan Tan has more than 100 million users and is one of the biggest dating applications in China. At the moment I\u2019m writing this article, almost 4 billion matches have occurred in the application. The application has received tens of millions of dollars in funding.<\/p>\n

    Tan Tan is similar to Tinder in the sense that you can swipe, left or right, when seeing people\u2019s photos and bio in the card deck. Compared to Tinder, which is blocked in China, by the way, I\u2019d say that Tan Tan is more popular among local users.<\/p>\n

    Some pros of using Tan Tan are that you can use all the features for free, and upgrades are affordable. Besides, you\u2019re allowed to swipe a lot of profiles per day, and it\u2019s fun chatting as they have getting-to-know-you games.<\/p>\n

    Some drawbacks of using the application is that many profiles are incomplete, some even fake. <\/p>\n

    2. Tinder<\/h2>\n

    Tinder is the biggest dating application in the world and was launched as late as 2012. Since then, the application has grown to become a monster, valued to 10 billions of dollars. Before Tinder, many people met partners through friends, at bars, nightclubs, and cafes, for example.<\/p>\n

    Nowadays, you\u2019ll notice that a decent number of acquaintances and friends meet their beloved ones online. Interestingly, it\u2019s still some kind of taboo of using online dating applications, even if these are so widely used.<\/p>\n

    To use Tinder, you can simply go to Apple Store or Google Play and download the application. As long as you have a VPN (Tinder is blocked in China<\/a>), it won\u2019t take you more than a few minutes to register, after that, you can write your bio and upload photos.<\/p>\n

    Perhaps as you know by now, people are matched if they both swipe right when seeing each other’s profiles in the card deck. You cannot see whether a person has swiped right unless you use Tinder Gold (more about that later).<\/p>\n

    Tinder also has plenty of other functions, such as super likes. Super likes come in limited numbers and the other person will see whether you liked them or not before they swipe.
    \nOver the years, Tinder has evolved into a freemium product, which means that there\u2019s a free version and paid versions. The paid versions are Tinder Plus and Tinder Gold. Let\u2019s review them a bit more in detail.<\/p>\n
