Some dating apps are moving away from the traditional swipe feature and instead focusing on in-person meetups. One such app, Surf, allows users to filter matches based on fitness habits. This feature is appealing to individuals like Rob Perez, a 33-year-old content creator who prioritizes fitness in a partner.

Perez, an avid runner, likes that the app lists potential matches' interests upfront, making it easier to find compatible partners. Surf is part of a trend of dating apps encouraging face-to-face interactions.
