Hello all single
guys. Today I am going to write a blog for best dating application. So without
wasting time lets get started.
Tinder is one of the most famous dating apps out there, and the obvious first choice on our list of the best dating apps. As successful as it is at forming long-distance relationships and successful marriages, Tinder has long been accused of changing dating into some form of the hookup game.
The Tinder app no longer requires
you to have a Facebook account, but you do have a valid phone number. Once
enabled, you can set up a concise profile that consists of a 500-character bio
and up to six images (we suggest always including a photo). You can also link
your Tinder account to your Instagram, and include info about your
employer and/or school. Discovery settings allow other users to find you if
desired and set a few preferences regarding who you see. Then the real fun
begins.
Tinder shows you a photo, name, and
age. You can tap on the photo to see additional information regarding the
person and Facebook friends you share (if you’re logged in through your
Facebook account). The free option comes with limited swipes, and you’ll have
to pay per month for
unlimited swipes.
All options, including those for
accessing the settings and viewing profiles, are located in a slide-out
menu. Tap the “matches” option to browse, which, oddly, does not show you the
people you’ve matched with but rather the
people you could potentially match with. If that interface is too chaotic for
you, tap the “quick match” option, which
restricts the results to photos only.
Worst of all — anyone can message
you. Anyone. And they can message anything to you. If you don’t reply, they’ll
probably just keep on messaging you too. Facebook verification helps block
a percentage of bots and catfishers from creating accounts, and without it, OkCupid loses a
level of reliability.
Bumble looks similar to Tinder but functions a tad differently. The big
catch with Bumble is that when opposite genders match, the woman must message
the guy first — and she has 24 hours to do so. Guys can extend matches for 24
hours, if they’re really hoping to hear from a woman, as can ladies, if they
want to initiate something with a match but just haven’t had the time during
the first day. For same-gender matches, either person can initiate the
conversation first.
Profiles are concise and settings
are also pared down, like with Tinder, but swiping up allows you to scroll
through additional photos instead of super-liking someone. This means that
just because someone twitched their thumb up on your photo, you won’t have to
see their profile first every time you open the app, even though you swipe left
on their profile every time.
However, if you’re a woman and you
really hate being the first person to initiate a conversation, then Bumble
definitely isn’t for you. Profiles are also very short, consisting of a
concise blurb and six photos or fewer. This can make it hard to gauge whether
or not you’re interested, even at the most superficial level, in someone.
Furthermore, because Bumble places the onus on the woman to initiate the
conversation, we’ve found that it can attract a more passive crowd than other
dating apps.
