Tinder’s incognito mode lets you hide from people unless you swipe right first
Tinder introduces Incognito Mode which will show your profile only to the people you like first.
The dating app says it is a step up from fully hiding your profile, giving you ‘complete control’ over who sees you while swiping on Tinder.
‘Members can still Like and Nope in the app, but only those whom they’ve Liked will see them in their recommendations,’ said Tinder in a press release.
However, Incognito Mode is a paid feature that’s only available for Tinder+, Gold, and Premium members.
The new feature was announced today alongside several free safety updates including developments to its ‘Does This Bother You?’ and ‘Are You Sure?’ features, widening its categorisation of hate speech, sexual exploitation and harassment.
‘Are You Sure?’ steps in before when a user is about to send a message that Tinder detects as having inappropriate language, including being overtly sexual or violent, reducing the sending of these messages by more than 10%.
In addition to these features, Tinder has also introduced the Block Profile feature that lets people block members when profiles are suggested so they don’t show up again. This can be an easy way to avoid seeing a boss or an ex.
In 2021, Tinder already launched a feature allowing members to block personal contacts on the app like an ex or family members.
