> All dating apps target millennials

Millennials are almost in their 40s now! The prime dating app market (low to mid 20s) is now Gen Z.



True about millennials and Gen Z, but "millennial" now acquired the meaning of "ungrounded young people". It depends on what you call a "market". Real dating apps charge fees and don't have hidden agendas like Facebook (rule the world and sell your data to advertisers) - that's what I call a "dating app market". Sifting thru photos is not really dating - especially Instagram and Facebook photos, which, in most cases, are twisted reality.


As a millennial a few years shy of hitting 30, I find your rounding up a bit too generous. That aside, I’d still say that the prime Tinder age group is millennials.
