Keywords Dating Apps typically rank for
A real ASO run on your app surfaces 50 ideas across these three buckets — plus your current rank for each.
Head terms
High demand, high difficulty — keyword-field weight, not title.
Long-tail
Specific intent — these are the rows you actually rank on.
Competitor-driven
What rivals already rank for — keyword-field only, never title.
How to read the results table
Three rows you'll typically see for Dating Apps — and what each tells you.
Intent-loaded long-tail — searchers have a specific goal and are filtering. Subtitle gold if your app positions there.
Tinder, Hinge, Bumble own the top 5. Don't put this in title — it's dead weight. Keyword field only.
Demographic-modifier long-tails are the highest-opportunity rows for new dating apps. Top 10 here isn't dominated by the giants.
Opportunity is what ties it all together — it's demand minus difficulty, with a bonus for keywords where you're already nearby (say, ranked #11–20). Sort by opportunity descending and the top rows are your shortlist.
Where each keyword goes in your store listing
The three fields Apple indexes — and which keyword type belongs in each.
Title (30 chars)
Title gets your brand plus an audience or intent — e.g. "Hinge — Designed to Be Deleted". A clear audience or value-prop beats "dating app" in the title every time.
Subtitle (30 chars)
Subtitle for the strongest audience/intent long-tail — e.g. "Serious Dating for Professionals". Specificity is the entire ASO play for dating.
Keyword field (100 chars)
Use 100 chars on audience and intent modifiers: "serious,marriage,lgbt,queer,over40,over50,christian,jewish,muslim,vegan,polyamorous". Apple does match across underscores and commas — don't waste chars on the head terms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I rank against Tinder or Hinge on "dating app"?
In practical terms, no — not for a new app. The top 5 for "dating app" is locked. But "dating app for [audience]" is wide open, and the SnapMonk ASO tool is built to surface exactly which audience modifiers have real demand without head-term-level competition.
Do "serious" or "casual" keywords matter or is it all the same audience?
They're separate audiences with very different conversion behavior. Re-run the ASO tool with copy that emphasizes intent — you'll see the keyword set shift dramatically between "serious relationships" and "casual dating" inputs. Pick a lane in your subtitle.
Are demographic keywords (over 40, LGBTQ, religious) worth the keyword-field space?
For niche dating apps, almost always. The demand column on these is lower than head terms, but the difficulty column is dramatically lower, and the opportunity score sorts them to the top. New dating apps that crack the top 10 usually do it on a demographic modifier first.
