WeChat isnt typically considered a dating app, although it is often used as one. The popular “Search nearby” feature allows looking for profiles within a short distance filtered out by gender preference.

Why is WeChat so popular?

WeChat is so successful because it integrates profoundly and seamlessly into our life. It catches all of our attention whenever we feel bored and crave for distractions, and the app keeps us trapped by not letting us go anywhere else.
