Online dating apps do work, however there are a few things you should know before you invest in one. The first is that many of these apps require you to upload a picture of yourself. This can lead to people who are not really interested in meeting you online messaging and chatting with you. Next, it’s important to research the app you want to use. Make sure it has a good user base and that the people on the app seem genuine. Finally, don’t overspend on your app account. A couple of months’ worth of premium membership will get you more matches than anything else.
