From looking for love to a casual hookup, these are the best Valentine's Day apps for singles
If you don't have a special someone to spend Valentine's Day with this year that doesn't mean it has to be a wasted holiday! From getting takeout and spending Valentine's Day holed up at home to getting out on the town and meeting other singles in your area, there are apps, and porn, to keep your time plenty occupied. So regardless how you want to spend your Valentine's Day, we've got the apps you want...
Tinder
Tinder has quickly become one of the most favored dating apps amongst women because it's not as spammy as many of the others. For folks that value privacy and don't want random messages cluttering their inbox, Tinder boasts great privacy controls including only letting mutual likes message each other. This should greatly reduce the amount of 'hookup' messages you receive and immediately junk.
If you're serious about looking for someone but don't want the junk and hookup messages that typically come with it, check out Tinder.

If you are a male that prefers the company of the same sex, Grindr is one of the best male dating apps available. Lots of people use it and the odds of you finding someone locally are greater than with other services. The design is also much less annoying and cheesy than that of many other dating apps.
Whether you want a quick hookup, something more, or just someone to vent to about how much this holiday sucks, Grindr is a favorite amongst the gay male crowd.

Eat24 is a takeout app that's loaded with tons of restaurants and menus. It also integrates Yelp reviews so you can check out what other people are saying. It isn't available in all areas but if you live in a pretty populated urban area, I'd be willing to bet you'll find restaurants that are using it.
If you want to stay off the grid this Valentine's Day, Eat24 will make sure you don't starve.

Who wants to actually go to the movies, or go out at all, on Valentine's Day? No one unless they're with a date. That's where services like Netflix come in. Spend your evening watching movies or catching up on your favorite shows uninterrupted.
If you want to occupy your time on Valentine's Day from the comfort of your own home, Netflix is a must-have.

There aren't actually porn apps for the iPhone or iPad but there are tons of websites that work just fine. So if that's your thing and you have firmly decided you need no one else to have a good time, load up mobile Safari on your iPhone and iPad and simply type in the search bar iPhone/iPad porn. You'll get plenty of results that'll keep you busy for the evening. You can even enable private browsing if you want so no one would ever be any the wiser.
If porn is your thing, mobile Safari is all you need.
- Built into iOS
