Tinder is, according to themselves, a platform for finding dates, friends and meeting new individuals. More directly, one could probably say that Tinder is the world's most popular dating app and hookup app.
Traditionally, dating often meant going out to a club with friends in hopes of meeting someone interesting.
Of course, people still meet that way, but when everything else is on-demand, why not match-making as well?
To start using the app, you first need to create a profile. To do this, you need to enter and verify your phone number. Other users can not search for you via your phone number in the app. It is used to link your account, reset your password if needed and to counter spam accounts.
When creating your profile, you will be asked to provide your gender identity, age, gender preferences for potential partners, and additional information such as interests or hobbies.
Post some nice pictures of yourself and write a biography. You are now ready to start swiping and matching with other users.
Tinder is full of features that are there to make you spend more time and money on the app. [Of course, we'll go through how you can save on both]. But the most important thing is simple.
The apps functionality is simple. You willbe shown profiles of people who may be of interest to you. You can browse thorugh any pictures they uploaded and read their biography (if they have one).
Do you like what you see and read? Swipe right! Otherwise, just swipe left to skip that profile and see the next one. A little bit like Next on MTV. Thank you next!
If you both swipe right on each other's profiles, you have matched and can start chatting with each other.
Unlees you collect matches to feed your self-esteem, your goal is probably to meet someone new. In that case, it is necessary to start a dialogue. This is easier if the person is online when you are!
The times when most people use Tinder are Sundays and Mondays between 18.00 and 21.00. Chances are greater that you will get a quick response at that time.
Tips - Tinder Boost!
Tinder Boost is a premium feature that makes your profile one of the top profiles in your area for 30 minutes. According to Tinder, you can get up to 10 times more profile views with Boost. If you are a premium member: Use Boost when most users are online to make the most of your hard earned money!
To begin with - do not waste all your swipes at once! A standard profile is limited to 100 a day. Which is a lot.
But by swiping right on all profiles you are not only wasting swipes. You also increase the risk of not getting a match!
There is evidence that Tinder's algorithm punishes users who constantly swipe right by limiting the amount of profiles they are shown.
Tinder is full of so-called match collectors. These are people who collect matches but who never write and rarely answer.
They are without a doubt some of the most disliked users on the app. So of course, Tinder has a solution to the problem.
Failure to write or reply increases the risk of being shown to only other inactive users. This in turnlowers the chances that a match leads to a real date or hook-up!
Be selective and only swipe right on people you actually want to talk to.
Tinder's goal is of course to encourage the use of the app and have you swiping like you're playing Candy Crush. Their goal is to get users to pay for a Premium membership to see more users and get more Matches. This means that apps like Tinder (and Candy Crush) use clever (and somewhat manipulative) tricks to create an addiction. We can use this to our advantage and beat the system.
When you have a session, Tinder obviously wants to give you something that is guaranteed to catch your attention. The first profile you are shown will be an extremely popular profile that many users have swiped right on. The person will probably be attractive, be in an exotic country and be wearing swimwear. We're talking about a classic Instagram model.
This profile is meant to attract you but will not be a match if you swipe right.
The second profile shown, however, is a different matter! After the so-called "catch" that Tinder so nicely presented to us when we open the app, there is a risk that you are a little disappointed that you did not match.
Your brain longs for the reward of a satisfying match… So of course, Tinder will offer a little taste.
In other words: The next profile presented is (if someone has swiped right on your profile yet) guaranteed to be a Tinder Match!
Use this method to match with users who are interested in you.
We can use the knowledge that profile number two is a match to create a match chain! When you swipe right on the second profile simply turn off Tinder. We are talking about a full shutdown of the app's activity.
When you then restart Tinder, you will again be faced with a "star profile" followed by a guaranteed match (as long as you have potential matches pending). If you like what you see and read, swipe right and start a conversation. The perfect activity for a rainy sunday evening when many users are online.
You only have two options on tinder: Like or skip. In addition, you have no control over which profiles you are shown. So sometimes it can be a little stressful when you are shown a profile you really like, but are not in the mood for a potential match.
This can and will be a more frequent problem when one knows that profile two is a tinder match. By scrolling down on the user's profile and clicking on sharing the profile with a friend, you can send yourself a link. Then swipe left and continue to tinder!
When you then want to get back to the profile, you simply close down Tinder and click on the link! Tada, you are now sent back to the user profile and can swipe right, match and start a conversation.
Tinder can change its functionality without prior notice. Test the method first if you have recently installed an update. Save a profile you are not worried about missing a match with to check that the loophole still works.
This may sound obvious, but considering the amount of blank biographies on Tinder, it bears repeating. Your description is super important! Share information about yourself, be humorous or share your passions. The goal is to capture the attention and give potential matches something they can use to start a conversation.
Give them something to go on. Swiping on an empty profile can be a bit intimidating, to say the least. Not mention that it's a bit diffucilt start a conversation.
Your biography is your personal billboard on Tinder. Use it!
Tinder loves active users and rewards them! By making regular updates to your profile, you might get more views! So go in and make minor changes regularly.
Replace a few lines in the bio, replace an old picture or add an interest. With just some small changes, your profile will be considered "fresh" and start appearing to more potential matches!
Tinder has a number of functions for matching profiles according to different criteria on the Explore page.
Here you can find hubs with users by interests. Make sure to add interests to your profile to be seen by other users searching for matches in these hubs.
This not only increases the chances that your profile is shown to more users. But will also help you match with people with a common interest! After all, it is quality over quantity that is important when matching.
There is a clever little feature that you can turn on when editing your profile. Smart photos is a function that automatically tests your photos to find the one that gets the most matches. Your photos are then sorted by how well they perform.
Do you love music? Your potential matches probably do as well! Do not miss to choose your so-called "Anthem" on Tinder.
This feature allows you to select a song that represents you. Choose the soundtrack that best defines you and increase your matching potential.
Let other users see you properly. Would you swipe right at a user you wouldn't be able to recognize IRL? Profiles with good images get more matches.
But this does not mean you have to look like a supermodel. Upload well well lit high-resolution images. Let users see your face clarely.
Ask your friends which pictures best capture your personality and beauty
Oh! And lose the sunglasses. They don't make you look cool nor misterious! More probably than not, you'll just look like a pompous asshole.
A short video can be a fun way to showcase your personality and hobbies. Feel free to show off your dance moves or a video from your latest parachute jump.
Just make sure yoy put the video last in your gallery! A poor mobile connection can lead to the video loading slowly. On Tinder, the first impression is everything. If the video does not load quickly, you risk getting left swipe out of frustration.
This is why you should add videos last in the gallery. If they have swiped past four pictures, the chances are high that they are willing to wait a few extra seconds to see you in full motion picture!
Tinder can be an exciting meeting place if you use it correctly. Bring your best mood to the dating app and use these Tinker hacks to upgrade your Tinder game.
It's on you now, kiddo!
