The online dating industry is fast becoming dominated by smartphones and mobile technology, catalysed by the modern day need to form relationships simply, quickly and virtually.
And with the growing reliance on mobile apps to help someone find love ceasing to end, many of the old-fashioned dating experiences are facing a rapid extinction.
As part of Vice’s Love Industries series, Slutever’s Karley Sciortino travels around the world to explore the many ways that mobile dating apps have replaced the more traditional ways of finding love.
