Bumble and Tinder as source of dating

Just want opinions on how to purposefully date on these dating apps.  I was talking to my married coworkers yesterday and my one coworker met her husband on Pof.  I just have done Pof so much and I'm afraid to get back on because I'm afraid of the crappy guys and because I have been on so much I feel like I recognize all the guys and that's embarrassing. I was on okc last night and didn't see any attractive guy really. It's just depressing to me that my life is in this state of affairs. I also got a personal trainer which will eventually inspire me to join a gym and I can meet men like that and moving to this new area I feel like maybe there will be new men even though I doubt it since I'm not super far from my home town. So how can I make tinder and bumble meaningful and really find a relationship on there without having to do Pof or something??
