A wise man once said, “It’s the little things that count.” But you do not want to go too little (or too extra, for that matter), and the FOMO hits you hard when planning things out. Well, the good news is that it’s 2022, lovebirds! Let technology be your wingman. Here is a list of the best Valentine’s Day apps for iPhone to help you plan your perfect date.
1. Tinder: Find your ideal match!
Ted has always raised my dating expectations, especially in this scene. Where do we find men like these? The answer to this question is Tinder! Sounds quite funny, doesn’t it? According to a Statista’s report, a whopping 30% of the US adult population uses Tinder, and the userbase is increasing with each quarter. Due to the novel corona, zoom dates are the new normal too! Don’t think twice; install the app, complete your profile, and swipe for love. You never know; one of your matches can end up being the one for you! If not, you still get yourself a date for Valentine’s (a win-win situation for everyone). Price: Free (In-App purchases start at $0.99) Download
