More research is needed on how autistic women are perceived on dating apps, as well as the experiences of non-heterosexual and non-binary autistic people.

Autistic people may prefer dating apps because they offer a more controlled environment, but they can face difficulties navigating social norms and communication, ensuring safety, and managing self-presentation.
