New research reveals that 30% of users are married and 12% describe themselves as being in a relationship.

New research reveals that 30% of users are married and 12% describe themselves as being in a relationship.

The figures, revealed as part of Global Web Index's (GWI) latest research into consumer digital trends around the world, also found that 62% of the site's users are men and that usage is most poplar among 16-to-34-year-olds.

However, although Tinder captures more than its fair share of headlines and media attention, it is by no means being used by a majority of consumers. GWI's figures, which are based on responses from a pool of 47,622 web users from 33 countries, found that only 1% of those polled had used the app.
