Facebook Dating has launched in the United States and will also have Instagram integration on the platform. The new dating platform will look to use the vast amount of data on Facebook in order to create better matches than other dating services. Facebook Dating will also provide the opportunity for users to access Instagram integration, where users can use Instagram posts to fill out their profiles.
The dating service was initially announced at the F8 developer conference in 2018, and its United States launch marks its entrance into one of the most active markets when it comes to social platforms.
Facebook has taken steps to ensure privacy on its dating service, and will have a number of different privacy settings that users can toggle based on what they want out of the platform.
