OkCupid and Photoroom help daters erase their exes and find new matches for summer | by OkCupid | Apr, 2024


As the weather warms, people’s dating lives are heating up. This year, daters on OkCupid have already sent more than 100 million first messages — and almost seven in 10 of people on our app are looking for a long-lasting relationship.

Whether singles are preparing to dive into something casual or more serious, they’re looking through some of their favorite photos to add to their dating profiles — and unfortunately sometimes an ex appears in one of the best shots. So OkCupid is partnering with Photoroom, the world’s most popular AI photo-editor, to enable the hottest new dating trend for summer: ex-terminating, or the act of removing an ex from an otherwise cute pic.

About 6 in 10 (55%) Gen Z daters have photos where they want to erase a former partner. That’s why OkCupid and Photoroom have created a tool that lets singles erase their exes from their best selfies for good.

To find out daters’ unfiltered views about what photos they want on dating apps, OkCupid added brand-new matching questions, which were answered more than 250,000 times.
