Many are concerned about minors using dating apps and the potential abuses therin. There are plenty of services that will do ID-based age verification, and more platforms in recent years have required the use of such verification.

Will this extend to dating apps?

I'll decide "major" dating app based on my personal judgement, probably biasing towards including things vs excluding them.

Given there's no geographic considerations in the resolution criteria, think it has to resolve yes

It seems like Tinder already requires age verification in at least enough cases to make an FAQ about it. https://www.help.tinder.com/hc/en-us/articles/360040592691-Why-do-I-need-to-verify-my-age
