Using dating apps to meet a potential new partner lessens the time you spend out in public. It also allows you to see someone’s maskless face without de-masking in public. Dating apps give you a way to get to know someone without having to give them your phone number or access to a private social media profile.
Dating Apps and websites are a go to for meeting new people. Voice call and video chat are now features of many dating apps which lessens the chances of being catfished.
