Great news, Android users. Your chances of finding love just got better.

Starting today, the dating app Hinge will be available for Android. This app did a total relaunch in October -- the emphasis is now on forming real relationships over hookups -- and since then has only been available on iOS.

So what are you likely to find after this long hiatus? Well, Hinge says they are now seeing fewer connections, but there are more chats happening and numbers being exchanged. They report that a “like” is now 20 times more likely to turn into an IRL date that it was on the old app.

So the hope is that it's less of an all-out numbers game, and more about actual connections. A lofty goal in this era of swiping fatigue, but they say they’ve seen their daily active users grow by 50 percent in the last two months. They’re estimating their Android app will increase usage by about 30 percent, based on users of the app’s previous incarnation.

While Hinge is already available in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and India, the Android app should make it easier for international users to access the apps. That goes along with their plans to spread wider in Europe and Asia.

And for the rest of us, who might be finding this summer's offerings a little slim, this should hopefully mean more potential mates from which to pick.
