In your Google Account, review the third-party access list and each connection separately, then remove the specific dating-app connection you no longer want. Revoking access does not ensure the app deletes information it already received, so treat revocation and any deletion question with the dating service as separate matters.

Start from your Google Account, not the dating app
The authorization you want to change sits with your Google Account rather than inside the dating app. Google states that account owners can review third-party access and remove a specific connection. Because labels and availability can differ, rely on the current wording you encounter rather than assuming a single fixed layout. [Google Account Help: Third-party access]
Review each connection type separately
The same dating service may be present through more than one connection type, and Google advises reviewing connection types separately. Your choice for one entry does not describe the others, so decide which specific connection you actually want to end before removing anything. [Google Account Help: Third-party access]
Remove the selected connection
Select the dating-app connection and remove that specific entry. Google confirms that removing a specific connection is possible. If you identified more than one connection type during your review, make a separate decision for each. This changes the Google-side authorization; it does not operate the dating app's own account settings for you. [Google Account Help: Third-party access]
Why the app may still keep data it already received
Revocation is forward-looking. Google notes that removing access does not ensure the third party deletes information it already received. Data shared before revocation may therefore remain with the dating service. Treat that possible copy as a separate question from the Google-side removal you just completed.

Keep observation, limit, and decision apart
Observation: the dating app is listed with one or more connection types. Limit: the list does not show what the app did with earlier data, and removal does not guarantee deletion. Decision: revoke the connection you no longer want, then decide separately whether to adjust the dating app's own settings or delete your dating account. As a hypothetical example, someone might remove two connections and still ask the service to delete the profile copy it holds.
| observation | limit | next step |
|---|---|---|
| The dating app is listed with one or more connection types | Each connection type needs separate review | Decide which specific connection you want to end |
| You remove the selected connection | The app may still retain information it already received | Treat deletion of earlier data as a separate question |
| You have ended the authorization you wanted to end | Revocation alone does not guarantee deletion of earlier data | Decide separately whether to adjust or delete the dating account |
A couple more questions
Does revoking Google access make the dating app forget me?
Not necessarily. Revoking access removes the connection, but Google states that removal does not ensure the third party deletes information already received, so earlier data may remain.
Why review connection types one by one?
Because Google advises reviewing connection types separately, and your choice for one connection does not describe the others.
What should I do after removing the connection?
Treat the next step as a separate question about data the dating service already holds, since revocation alone does not guarantee deletion.
