It's a Tinder bug

No matches?

ROAST Profile Review

When your Tinder matches disappear, the best possible reason is a Tinder bug. Because if it's a Tinder glitch the problem is likely a temporary issue that will resolve itself without any serious effort on your part.


Because this is the easiest answer, it's also the one you should test first. Try logging out of your account and then logging back in again. And if your Tinder app is out of date, try updating it before you log back on.


Hopefully you'll discover this was a temporary bug and your matches will reappear shortly.

Although frustrating, being unmatched is the most likely reason your Tinder match disappeared, if you've already established it's not a bug.


Remember, anyone can unmatch at any time, for any reason. And that means a Tinder match disappearing isn't something to take personally.


Someone might unmatch because they've met someone else because they don't have time to date right now, or for any other reason you'll never guess. Don't waste time wondering where they went, just spend your time swiping on other profiles or messaging a different Tinder match.

Small aside. Did you know it is possible to make your profile more attractive in 2 minutes and get more matches every day?

Similar to being unmatched, it's possible your match deleted Tinder. And if your match deletes their account, there's really nothing you can do about it. There's also no way to know for sure if that's what happened.


So just like the possibility of being unmatched, someone deleting Tinder isn't worth losing sleep over. Just continue flirting with other people and next time, maybe try to get your match's phone number sooner.


There's also the chance your match was shadowbanned. If so, it might be better that you can't contact them anymore.

Unfortunately, Tinder is vulnerable to bot advertising — just like every other corner of the internet. So if your match seemed too good to be true, it's possible they were never real in the first place.


If you never got as far as exchanging messages, it's difficult to tell whether this is the problem. But most bots can't carry on an interesting conversation, so they tend to be obvious once you get that far.

Unfortunately, when a match disappears on Tinder, they're usually gone for good.


As tempting as it might be to get your Tinder match back, it will take a lot less effort to simply make a new connection with a new match and move on. There's even some Tinder hacks you can use to make it easier to find a match.


And if your Tinder match disappeared because they deleted their account (or got banned) there's absolutely nothing you can do in the Tinder app to find them.



Start a new account

If you really can't live without your lost Tinder match, your only option is to start over with a new Tinder account and hope you'll find them again. Remember, this only works if they're still on the app — which means they likely unmatched you on purpose. So there's no reason to think they'll swipe right the next time your profile crosses their screen.


If you do make a new account, be sure to fully understand what Tinder ELO is before you do it.


But if you're determined to go this route, follow our complete guide to resetting your Tinder account here.

The best way to protect yourself from Tinder matches disappearing is to get their contact info asap. Remember, once you've matched then Tinder is just a messaging app — and there are better platforms for sending messages.


Let your match know that in your experience, The tinder app is kind of glitchy and you'd rather chat somewhere else. If they don't want to exchange phone numbers right away, you can also use their favorite social account, like Instagram or Twitter.
