Dating Apps: The Inside Story – Episode Guide
▶︎ Section 1
Documentary exploring how our love lives have been transformed by the rise of dating apps, beginning with Tinder’s explosive launch in 2012.
In just over a decade, digital romance has become big business: a global industry worth more than $8 billion, dominated by Match Group, the powerful conglomerate behind 45 platforms, including Tinder, Hinge and OkCupid. With annual revenue of around $3.5 billion, Match has reshaped how millions meet, but at what cost?
With over half of users reporting dissatisfaction and Gen Z increasingly turning away from apps in search of real, offline connections, the film raises serious questions about safety and the ethics of algorithmic love. Has the pursuit of profit overtaken the pursuit of partnership? Are the platforms designed to keep us swiping and using instead of finding ‘the one’?
Featuring anonymized interviews with industry insiders who feel compelled to speak out, along with daters, pundits and cultural commentators, this documentary reveals the hidden mechanics of the modern dating economy and asks whether we’ve been seduced or trapped by the swipe.
