Call You and Yours: Have you found love using a dating app?

You and Yours

Available for over a year

An article in this month's Vanity Fair condemns mobile phone apps like Tinder that present users with pictures of partners that they can swipe left for a potential match or right for instant rejection. The magazine said they were mainly being used for casual "hook ups" with no commitment. Millions of single people use them - but do they ever lead to anything more than casual hook ups? What's your experience of Tinder or other dating apps. Have you found a lasting relationship? Are they ruining the art of romance or is it a myth that old-style dating was anything more sophisticated? Email us on [email protected] and leave a contact number so we can call you back. And join Andrea Catherwood tomorrow at quarter past 12.
