Tinder Review

When people discuss online dating, Tinder is something that is mentioned pretty early on. Many people around the world have tried or used Tinder and some have had a positive experience. With that said, others have been completely frustrated with swiping and not seeing results. Just how good is the app for actual dating? Here is a full dating app review on Tinder, and how it is viewed today.

Tinder used to allow users from 13 years old, but changed their policy to 18+ in 2016. Stumbling over minors there is still an issue though. They should take measures to fix this problem.

Setting up a profile

The set up process for Tinder is made to be very easy. All a person needs to do is fill out a few questions and they are on their way. A person should add a photo, but that is not even required to use Tinder. That might seem like something that is a positive, but most who use Tinder think of it as a huge negative. If a person does not even need to post a photo on a dating app, how serious can it be?

The set up process also is a little bit limiting for people who are looking for something in particular. About the only thing a person can set is if they are interested in males and/or females, and age range. Tinder will go off a person’s current location to show who is available in the area, but unless a person pays for a premium feature, they can’t jump around if they are in a different location. Sorting people by interests, education and more just isn’t happening on Tinder.

There is no approval process for a new profile on Tinder, and that can be another red flag for some. Tinder has faced some scrutiny in the past for not being too proactive about people who do not use the service respectfully. It is such a big company that it is simply difficult for them to stay on top of it all even if they try.

Using the app and finding love

Tinder is always going to have one of the biggest pools of people to choose from because they are so well known. Most people who begin looking for love online are going to sign up for Tinder and at least give it a try for a bit. It can be a frustrating experience for both sexes though, which is why alternatives have been able to shine.

Perhaps the biggest issue with Tinder is that it is seen as a little bit too casual. Maybe it is the simplicity of the application, but it is sometimes treated as a game instead of something that could be potentially serious. We found it hard to get people who actually want to meet and possibly date in real life.

Another issue that Tinder faces is that they have a pretty young demographic for the most part. It could be frustrating for people who are not in college to really find mature individuals who are willing to give things a chance.

Finally, ratios can be a little bit off depending on where a person is located. Many guys feel as though there are not a lot of eligible women who are willing to respond. Couple that with quite a few bots on the website still to this day, and it can be a blow to the ego when just getting a simple conversation started is next to impossible.

For women, they are bombarded at times with quite a few messages at once. It is a stroke to the ego, but can be hard to sift through everything if they are not familiar with the website.

Summary

The basic Tinder platform is free to use, but you might as well send random messages to people on Facebook or Twitter, in our opinion.

To have a chance at communicating with serious girls who are actually looking for dates, we recommend going up the payment tiers options: Tinder Plus and Tinder Gold.

Final Verdict

Tinder still has a lot of positives overall. They deserve a lot of credit for being at the top of the game for quite a few years now. With that being said, there are better alternatives for people to check out.

One such alternative is foxyadult.club. It is a website where people with a little bit more maturity have been able to have more success overall. Even though it has a smaller user base, people are much more active and willing to really pursue those people who are on there. It is worth checking out if some of the other dating apps such as Tinder are not exactly working out.
