Over the last decade, online dating has become the most popular method for initiating romantic connections, offering a convenient alternative to traditional dating. This scoping review aims to map the existing literature on autism and online dating. We included eight studies published between 2014 and 2023, sourced from the databases PsycInfo, PubMed, Medline, DynaMed, Psychology & Behavioral Sciences Collection, and ACM Digital Library. The findings highlight that online dating platforms provide a controlled environment that can be advantageous for autistic individuals, although they face significant challenges, including difficulties with social norms and safety concerns. However, the studies were largely characterized by small convenience samples, which limits the generalizability of the findings. Research gaps remain, particularly regarding different sexual orientations and gender identities, the self-presentation of autistic females, autistic individuals’ specific aspirations on dating apps, and the role of autism-specific dating platforms.
