You Have Got a Friend in New Social-Media Apps

Relationships come and go, but friends are forever. At least, that is the direction dating apps are swiping.

Social media is getting crowded, with nearly half of the worlds population using one of Facebooks apps every month. The market for connecting with existing friends may be well saturated, but it seems finding new ones is still something of an unmet need.

Friendship finding is, apparently, very hot right now. An analysis recently published by venture-capital firm Andreessen Horowitz showed friend discovery is the fastest-growing category of mobile social app in the U.S. Citing data from Apptopia, the firm showed friendship apps like Itsme, Wink and Yubo are some of the fastest-growing apps nationwide, solving for various pain points that exist in social media today.
