Tinder - Also known as the utter hook-up app, Tinder’s setup makes it where you only communicate with folks who have swiped right on you, too, which is a great way to keep away the crazies and filter out dudes you are not checking for. Just be prepared for a lot of pervs. (Photo: Tinder)

Soul Swipe - Similar to Tinder, Soul Swipe just gives you more options of color to choose from, which is always a good thing. And it’s catching on: Amber Rose, Bryshere Y. Gray and Big Sean use this popular app to find dates, too. So you are not alone! (Photo: Soul Swipe)

OK Cupid - We love this app because it's free and has tons of men to choose from, so you never get bored. The downfall: With the free membership, you can’t control who contacts you and folks can know that you are looking at their profile. So you have to weed out a lot of crazies, but that’s how it is in real life, too. (Photo: OK Cupid)

Hinge - This app uses your Facebook network to help you find a new bae, but Hinge won’t let you dilly dally around with your matches. You have 24 hours to send a message after matching or it disappears. Then you have 14 days to chat and exchange numbers not using Hinge messenger — or that match disappears, too. Yo, they're serious about you getting in the game. (Photo: Hinge)
