Tinder has globally introduced a range of new profile and discovery features along with a User Interface (UI) redesign, specifically targeting its Gen Z users. The enhancements are aimed at providing more authentic ways of dating beyond visual content stored on users’ devices.
The new features include Profile Prompts, allowing users to select and answer prompts revealing aspects of their personalities. Another addition is the Profile Quiz, enabling users to assess compatibility potential with matches through a fun and enlightening quiz.
Basic Info Tags provide details such as pets, drinking habits, zodiac signs, and love language. Additionally, an upgraded reporting system allows users to report specific profile elements for a safer experience. The UI redesign, known as Rizz-first, offers enhanced animations and a new “It’s a Match!” screen to make interactions on the app feel more special.
Tinder has also introduced Dark Mode for users. The changes align with the evolving preferences of the new generation of daters, emphasizing values such as respect and open-mindedness over physical appearance.
Mark Van Ryswyk, Chief Product Officer at Tinder, stated that the new features cater to the desire for authentic connections based on shared interests and values, reflecting the changing dynamics of modern dating.
