Tinder tests a feature so only women make the first move
Tinder is already the world's best-known dating app. And yes, along with fame also comes problems. That is why the people behind this tool continue to look for ways to make its application safe and comfortable for everyone. In fact, in India they are testing the My move function, with which only women will have the opportunity to take the first step in getting in touch with someone . Even after the match is mutual.
At the moment it is in the testing phase as far as Reuters has learned. The idea has arisen in the Indian market, where Tinder needed the presence of more women in its application. The problem was the lack of security that they felt when contacting potential partners. Thus, imitating the Bumble application, which already had a similar format. The power to start a conversation falls, then, always on the woman. Even when the match is mutual.
The idea is simple. The use of Tinder remains unchanged, requiring a mutual like, by the two users, to create that match. Of course, when the My move function is running, only women can start the conversation Something that does not break with the characteristic swype or finger slide, but that it does offer that sense of security and power over what is happening. Above all to avoid the barrage of messages that the female sex usually receives in this type of application, being they the ones who decide whether or not to finally start the conversation or chat.
Of course, for now we have to wait sitting (or rather sitting) for Tinder to test, verify and approve this My move function for all users worldwide. Testing has been going on for a few months now in India, so the experience should be pretty fine-tuned and the performance tight. In other words, if everything has gone well, the wait should not be much longer. However, at the moment there is no official information about it. Just the confirmation that Tinder has tested My move in India to offer security to women through its application when flirting in that country.
The My move function would be housed in the settings section Here, only female gender profiles could activate it to limit interactions to despite the matches or encounters.In this way, each user would have the ability to decide whether or not to take the first step after a match and start the conversation. Or if, on the contrary, he leaves the door open for the other person to say hello first
