Online Dating App Experience & Match Quality Survey
Measures how people actually experience dating apps and sites — match quality, trust, safety, and what drives satisfaction — for dating product teams and researchers. An AI follow-up interview reconstructs a real recent match or date instead of relying on vague satisfaction ratings.
Sample questions
A preview of what’s in the template. Every question is editable before you launch.
Which dating apps or sites have you actively used in the last 3 months?
- Tinder
- Bumble
- Hinge
- Match.com
- OkCupid
- A niche or interest-specific app (e.g., religious, hobby-based)
- A matchmaking service
In the last 3 months, how many matches turned into an actual in-person date?
Overall, how satisfied are you with the quality of the matches you've gotten recently?
When deciding whether to match with someone, which of these matter most to you, and which matter least?
- Photos
- Bio or written prompts
- Mutual friends or connections
- Verified profile badge
- Distance from you
- Listed job or education
- Shared interests or hobbies
- Response to an opening message
How much do you agree with each statement about your recent dating app experience?
- Profiles I see feel authentic and accurate
- Messaging usually leads to real, substantive conversations
- It's easy to tell someone's real intentions early on
- I feel safe meeting matches in person for the first time
- The app understands what I'm actually looking for
In the last 3 months, have you experienced any of the following on a dating app or site?
- Suspected fake or catfish profile
- Harassment or unwanted explicit messages
- Pressure to move off the app too quickly
- Being ghosted after a good conversation or date
- Someone misrepresenting their age, looks, or intentions
How would you rate your overall experience with the dating app or site you use most?
Reconstruct the respondent's most recent match or date in concrete detail: how the conversation started, what made it feel promising or disappointing, and whether it led to meeting in person. Anchor on the satisfaction score they gave and probe the specific reason behind it. If they flagged a safety concern, ask what happened and whether they reported it or changed their behavior on the app afterward.

- 18-24
- 25-34
- 35-44

How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- Includes an AI follow-up interview that reconstructs a respondent's actual most recent match or date in concrete detail, rather than relying on a single vague satisfaction rating
- Combines quantitative measures (satisfaction rating, opinion scale, numeric match-to-date count, matrix agreement statements, max-diff on matching priorities) with qualitative depth from the AI interview
- Covers safety and trust directly, asking respondents about specific negative experiences encountered on dating apps in the last 3 months
- Produces an automated report combining structured responses and interview findings, with transparent prompts so researchers can see exactly what was asked
Jotform
Online Dating Survey Form TemplateA static, ready-to-embed form template covering basic dating app usage and satisfaction questions. It's built for quick data collection and easy customization within Jotform's form builder rather than deep behavioral research. No interview or follow-up mechanism is present, so all data comes from fixed-choice and rating questions.
What it does well
- Fielding-ready template that can be deployed and customized quickly
- Drag-and-drop form builder makes editing questions and branding simple
- Familiar Jotform ecosystem for collecting and exporting responses
Where it falls short
- Static question set with no adaptive follow-up to probe unclear or interesting answers
- No mechanism to reconstruct a specific recent match or date experience in detail
- No built-in per-response quality scoring or automated analysis report
SurveyMonkey
Online Dating Survey TemplateA standard survey template from a major generalist platform, likely offering pre-written multiple-choice and rating questions on dating app usage and satisfaction. It benefits from SurveyMonkey's broad distribution and analytics tools, but it's a fixed-question template, not an adaptive interview experience.
What it does well
- Backed by SurveyMonkey's established survey distribution and panel options
- Easy to launch quickly with pre-built question logic
- Includes standard analytics dashboards for aggregate reporting
Where it falls short
- No adaptive AI follow-up questioning to reconstruct specific match or date experiences
- Relies on satisfaction ratings and closed questions rather than concrete behavioral detail
- No transparent prompt methodology or automated qualitative interview report
