Here's the Time of Day You Should Swipe Right to Get the Most Tinder Matches

​If you're looking to find love (or whatever it is you find on Tinder), you should swipe more aggressively in the evenings, a new study has found.

Data from Nielsen showed Tinder users are most active around 9 p.m., beginning to spike a few hours beforehand. The research firm found activity on the app begins to heat up around 6 p.m. most days and peaks at 9 p.m., with about 51.64 percent of the audience active in that hour. After 10 p.m., your chance of finding someone to hook up with crashes, with only 6 percent of users swiping. Only 1 percent of users checked the app after 2 a.m.

While Tinder users still use the app during the day, OkCupid users are more prone to browsing for matches during their commute, the study found, with a big spike of activity between 8 and 10 a.m. Apparently users of both apps are being professional and not swiping much at work, because the activity drops off significantly from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., when the evening peak starts to build.

"When we look at unique audience, we see that a larger percentage of all OkC users sign in both in the morning and night," Nielsen said in a statement. "On Tinder, the user's likelihood to check in between noon and midnight is mostly flat at about 40 percent."

Of course, all of these trends probably go out the window during extreme weather, when the app goes crazy with people looking for a blizzard boyfriend.
