In this article, we'll explain how to activate and use the Facebook Dating app for iOS and Android so you can start making matches.

You need a current Facebook account and be 18 or older to use the Dating app. However, you don’t need to create a separate Facebook dating profile; it uses the information on your current profile to recommend potential matches based on shared interests.

To get started with Facebook Dating, follow these steps:

Open the Facebook app and tap Menu (three lines) in the upper or lower right corner. (The location of the menu varies by mobile platform.)
