Tinder Hacks in 2022

The secret to getting more Tinder matches is to understand how Tinder works - especially Tinder's algorithm - and to know what women are looking for. There are a lot of different elements to get right, but don't worry —  we'll walk you through them.

You have to understand that some hacks last forever, they are evergreen. And some others are contextual.  They depend on the time of the year, they don't last forever. They depend on some specific hacks we find the Tinder's algorithm and so on!

In this article, I will try to give you both! The main idea to retain there is also that it is a trial and error process.

Let me know your best hacks if you found some too!

We start with the basics here. But not so basic since 70% of men don't use (or shitty use) their bio!

People get so focused on their Tinder photos that they don't bother to write a good bio. Lots of people even leave the space blank. This is a waste of an important opportunity to stand out!

Remember that people are moving fast when they're on Tinder. So you need your bio to be easy to skim. Don't make a wall of text. Break up your bio with spaces, bullet points, or emojis. And make sure the most important points stand out.

You can also pack your bio with some keywords that give Tinder's algorithm data to work with, such as your hobbies and interests.

We get it, dating apps work almost like games these days. It's easy to sit and swipe, gathering matches, and never start a conversation.

But if you want to use Tinder to get a date, let alone a relationship, you need to have conversations.

Keep in mind how the app works. When you make a match a notification pops up to let you know. And the other person is getting that notification too. This is a key moment, and not sending a message right away is a missed opportunity.

Rather than waiting for the elusive perfect match, start conversations with all of your matches and see where it goes. You might be surprised what it might lead to.

Tinder users tend to swipe fast, so you may have only a couple of seconds to grab someone's attention. The first thing she's going to see is your main photo, so it's got to be amazing. Yes, all of your photos need to be good, but the first one is doing the most work.

Ask your friends to help, and ask some women their opinions if you can. It's hard to be objective about our own image, so outside input is very important here.

Whether you're on Tinder to hookup or to find love, you need to turn your match into a date. To do that, you need to ask the right way.

Keep her needs in mind when you're suggesting a date. Use what you know about her to suggest something she'll enjoy, and that's convenient for her. For example, pick a location that's easy for her to get to. (Like somewhere near her school or her work, if you have that information.)

It's also a huge help to suggest a date that she'll feel safe going on. Some of the best first dates happen in a public place during the day. Remember — you want to suggest a date that's easy for her to say 'yes' to.

Having coffee on her lunch break, near her office, is an easy yes. While you might prefer late-night drinks at your favorite club, remember that's a lot more effort for her and more potential risk.

Hacking the Tinder algorithm means you need to know how it works. That's why we've spelled it all out for you here, Tinder Algorithm 2022 Decoded.

The short version is this: Tinder rewards users who use the app the way they want them to. Basically, the algorithm can watch user behavior and give an account a boost for things like logging on frequently, swiping and messaging often, and perhaps for taking advantage of more than the free services the app offers.

Use Tinder wisely. Remember that it's watching your behavior on the app, trying to learn your preferences. If you swipe right on every single profile, Tinder's algorithm won't understand what you're looking for and the quality of your potential matches may go down.

These behaviors can feed into each other, creating a Tinder death spiral. If you swipe on everyone Tinder starts showing you more people you're not interested in, and you swipe even faster trying to get more dates.

Instead, use Tinder with a strategy from the beginning, remembering that your profile isn't just about the photos you add and the bio you write, it's about your behavior on the app.

The best Tinder hack is simply using the Tinder app smarter. Like any tool, you need to understand how it works in order to use it properly.
