'''Duff''': ''I think the first thing is obviously looks, which sounds super vain, but that is what you first go for: natural chemistry. Also what they say in their profile has to be funny. I don't want to see a shirtless mirror selfie. That is instantly left. Someone who looks like they like to do fun things and someone who can make you laugh in their profile''.

You can do this once per day, so your potential soulmate will know it is really real. This function is an answer to the frequently cited anecdotal evidence that all (straight) men on Tinder just swipe right on everyone, hoping against hope that they'll land a match. According to a report from the New York Times, men are three times as likely as women to swipe right on any given picture.

| |
| *Acoording to founder Rad Tinder's impetus (drijfkracht) is to link people together that don't know each other, but of whom you know that both are looking. In a bar for example you might be looking but the other people in a bar might not. On Tinder everybody is looking. It works 2-ways.
| |
| *Founder Mateen stated: That the app ws intended to be a chance to meet people you wouldn't normally meet.

| *Review New York Times: The wide use of Tinder could be attributed not to what Tinder was doing right but to flaws in the models of earlier dating software, which relied on mathematical algoritms to select potential partners.

| |
| *As of june 2015, 68% of Tinder users were male and 32% were female.
