Redesigning Tinder
Tinder announced in a blog post that its new set of profile and discovery features are designed to improve and reflect the way a new generation of daters connect. The online dating platform has unveiled profile prompts that allow users to respond to prompts on their profile that can act as ice breakers. The most popular prompts are The key to my heart is, “The first thing on my list is” and “Two truths and a lie”.
There is also a new Profile Quiz feature that allows users to check compatibility with potential matches by taking a quiz about themselves. Users can share quiz answers on their profile, which gives an idea of their interests and personality.
Calling it a “Rizz-first Redesign,” Tinder has revamped the app’s interface with improved animations, UI updates, and a new “It’s a Match!” display. The update also brings Dark Mode to the app’s settings. To help people get to know each other better, Tinder has also introduced basic information tags that display information on your profile, such as your zodiac sign, love language, pets, and drinking habits.
This update follows a survey conducted by the online dating platform, which found that 69 percent of Gen Zers agree that dating standards need to be updated to fit modern society. Mark Van Ryswyk, Product Manager, Tinder, said: “At Tinder, we understand that connecting today is about authenticity, depth and the desire to connect beyond the surface. With these new profile and discovery features, it’s never been easier and more fun to share what makes you unique .”
Another feature added to Tinder is Enhanced Reporting, which allows users to report certain profile elements, allowing users to have a safer and more respectful experience.
