Tinder faces declining user engagement with a 7% drop in paying users, prompting the company to introduce new features, including "modes" for different dating goals and college-specific options. The dating app is planning a broader redesign targeting Gen Z users that will feature AI-powered matching expansion and allow users to like specific profile parts. Despite flat revenue of $864 million in Q2, Match Group expects improved Q3 performance and announced $50 million in product development investments.
