## QuackQuack, Tinder, and Bumble competed head-to-head in the run-up to Valentine’s Day

**QuackQuack, Tinder, and Bumble** competed for the position of the most downloaded app in the dating category, weeks before Valentine’s Day.

Throughout February, **QuackQuack received an average of 16K daily downloads** , 4.6% more than the runner-up, Tinder.

Downloads for **Grindr** and **Aisle** grew the most throughout February, respectively by 23.2% and 6.4% compared to the period before.

## Top 10 Dating Apps in India on Google Play

Tracking the top 10 [most downloaded dating apps](/en/reports/most-downloaded-dating-apps) over the past 6 months gives more insights into who dominates India’s dating app market.

_Source:_ [_apptweak.com_](/en) _– Daily download estimates for India’s top 10 most popular dating apps on Google Play between August 16, 2022, and February 16, 2022._

When looking back at the past 6 months, **QuackQuack comes out as the most popular Android dating app in India**. Over the past 6 months, QuackQuack received an average of 14.9K daily downloads, compared to 14.5k daily downloads for Tinder.

Tinder is slowly losing ground in India, unlike QuackQuack and Bumble. In the past 6 months, QuackQuack received an average of 14.9k downloads, an increase of almost 40%. Bumble’s downloads grew by 60.8% in the past 6 months.

## Top 10 Dating Apps in India on the App Store

Not surprisingly, with India being a market dominated by Android devices, dating app downloads on Apple’s App Store are much lower than on Google Play.

**Tinder** comes out as the most popular dating app on the App Store. Tinder has received on average 1.6k daily downloads and has seen a growth of 20.7% in the past 6 months. **OkCupid,** which, just like Tinder, is part of Match Group, has seen a significant decline in download growth, affecting its ranking on the App Store.

## QuackQuack is the highest-rated dating app on Google Play

_Source:_ [_apptweak.com_](/en) _– Ratings for Tinder, Bumble, and QuackQuack on February 16, 2022, in India on the Play Store._

With a star rating of 3.9, QuackQuack is the highest-rated dating app on the Play Store in India. Bumble follows with a rating of 3.7. With a star rating of 3, Tinder is the lowest-rated app among its competitors.

In November 2021, [Google rolled out an update](/en/aso-blog/2021-recap-a-major-year-in-aso#not-to-underestimate-changes-on-google-play-in-2021 "/aso-blog/2021-recap-a-major-year-in-aso#not-to-underestimate-changes-on-google-play-in-2021") where users would only see an app’s average ratings on a local basis, rather than global. After this transition, we saw that **Bumble’s daily ratings gradually improved**. Tinder’s ratings experienced a sharp drop after the update and have continued to decrease since.
