When it comes to dating apps, Tinder has been dominating since 2012. Recently, however, more and more people are choosing Hinge to find dates and meet new people. Here are five reasons why people are switching up Tinder for the new app.
It Forces You To Talk To People
With Tinder, you can continuously swipe right collecting matches until you run out of new people in your area. This usually leaves us with a long list of matches who we never end up talking to. With Hinge, you have to either start a conversation or reject the people who have liked you in order to look at your next match.
You Can Find Out More About People
Creating a bio on Tinder is a lot of pressure. On Hinge, you choose which questions you want to answer. You can find a lot out about people not just from their answers, but by the questions they choose.
It Forces You To Be Selective
On Hinge, you have limited likes. This can be a good thing as it forces you to be more selective and only like the people that you are actually interested in starting a conversation with.
It’s Considered To Be Safer
Hinge works by pairing you with people you have mutual friends with. That means that you are matched with people closer to your friendship circle, reducing stranger danger.
There Are Less Weirdos
Because Hinge matches you with mutual friends, you are less likely to be matched with a random weirdo who is looking for a hookup. Hinge is stricter with their safety policies and generally, 99% of the conversations you have on there will be normal conversations with no funny business.
