The app works by having users [invite matches to events or activities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plus-1) that they enjoy or vice-versa to help encourage them to interact face-to-face. This helps to encourage better dating by letting daters find out if there's a real connection sooner rather than later. The 'Invite and Meet' app focuses on quality rather than quantity to ensure that users aren't simply swiping away on hundreds of profiles at a time. This ensures that matches are more organic and that daters can rest assured the people they'll be meeting up with will be open to the same kind of social activities they are. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 71% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Romance](https://www.trendhunter.com/romance) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Activity-based Dating:** Use of activities to foster meaningful connections in the dating app industry. - **Quality Over Quantity:** Shift in focus from swiping profiles to providing matches based on shared interests and activities. - **Face-to-face Interactions:** Promotion of real-life meetings to facilitate genuine connections and improve the dating experience. ### Where This Applies - **Dating App:** Integration of activity-based features into dating apps to offer a more engaging and effective matchmaking experience. - **Event Planning:** Opportunity for event planning services to partner with dating apps to facilitate the organization of activities and events. - **Social Networking:** Incorporation of activity-based matchmaking features into existing social networking platforms to enhance user engagement and create new revenue streams. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Activity Focused Socialization Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sosocial-app.md) - [Connection-Building Dating Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meaningful-connections.md) - [Authentic Connection Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spark-dating.md) - [Offline Dating Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/offline-dating-experiences.md) - [In-Person Connection Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/connection-app.md) - [Hybrid Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/when-we-first.md) - [Music-Forward Dating App Events](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-dating-app-cerca.md) - [Restaurant-Collaborating Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frome-dating-app.md) - [IRL Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blush-app.md)
