Is it a red flag if they're still on dating apps?

Short answer

Depends on what you agreed

In the first weeks, lots of people still use the apps: it's not a red flag unless you've agreed to be exclusive. If you have, or it's been months, it's fair to ask. How they answer (honest or defensive) tells you a lot.

It depends on

  • Whether you've talked about being exclusive
  • How long you've been dating
  • Whether they're honest when you ask

What you could say

  • I've deleted my apps. How do you feel about that?
  • Are we seeing other people? I'd like to know where we stand.
  • I'd like us to be exclusive. What do you think?
