Lolly is the new dating app for Gen Z that’s a cross between TikTok and Tinder. The pandemic changed how young consumers date, and a newly launched app is looking to function as “a cross between TikTok and Tinder.” Lolly lets users upload short-form videos to their profiles for potential matches to scroll through in a vertical feed “that feels strongly reminiscent of TikTok.” The content allows users “to show off their humor and creativity more than regular dating profiles.” Because the platform lets users see videos based on their interests, there’s a higher chance to make connections with others “based on more than looks.” Unlike other dating apps, Lolly doesn’t have a “swipe left function,” and instead users can scroll past videos they don’t like, or they can “clap” for a video up to 50 times.
