The theory used in looking at the phenomenon of using the OMI online dating application is Alfred Schutz's Phenomenology. The data mining used is qualitative research with a descriptive approach, which is research that focuses on the use of data that will be described in written and oral form based on the informants studied by conducting in-depth interviews with Generation Z in 1996-2009 in the sidoarjo and Surabaya areas. The results showed that the use of online dating applications aims as entertainment, finding a partner, expanding friendships. Teenagers who use online dating apps have an understanding of online dating through OMI social media as a positive and efficient thing in order to know the good and bad of online app users.
