The problem with dating apps is that everyone hates a bad match. It's awkward, may feel like a waste of time, and generates a lot of rejection. People hate feeling rejected.
While a few apps have tried to do blind matching to get people in person faster, the fact they don't stick around implies that they weren't very successful.
There is some basic level of matchmaking thats required to get any relationship off the ground and for many people older than their early 20s this tends to involve some element of shared goals and shared lifestyle.

I think the key here is that the users should be able to decide what that is, and be given the tools to explicitly seek it out for themselves if they so desire. Black box algorithms that apply to everyone are a far cry from that. Although I never had the privilege of using it, that's probably why a lot of people speak so highly of the old OkCupid.
