The dating app Tinder has stopped working in Russia, just as its parent company, Match Group, said it would back in May. Users in Russia can no longer swipe on profiles, according to state media: any attempt to try is met with an error message and a request to try again later.
Additionally, Tinder is no longer available in the App Store or the Google Play Store.
An event held on Friday in Sochi (reportedly staged by “local creatives”) featured a mock funeral for the dating app. Kommersant journalist Yuri Litvinenko said on Twitter that the stunt was apparently organized by a local casino and designed to generate buzz for a “beach party” this weekend.
