What if I told you hinge is now becoming it's own form of the bachelor? That may soon become a reality! If you're like me, I currently have unopened messages on Hinge, making me primarily the dating app’s target market for its newest update—a first-of-its-kind feature designed to encourage users to focus on quality over quantity. And, for the love of my future grandchildren, give us all the push to actually talk to one another.
According to a recent study, one of the biggest dating challenges for 44 per cent of Hinge users around the world is unanswered messages from matches.
But the researchers also found that focusing on fewer conversations at a time leads to quicker responses, which increases the likelihood of you both actually making it out of the chat. In fact, research proves we’re 76 per cent more likely to go on a date if we respond to a match’s first message within 24 hours.
The new feature that will be rolling out later this year is called ‘Your Turn Limits’ and it essentially does just that! It limits users from chatting to more than eight people at once, because who wouldn't want quality over quantity. When they’re all maxed out, a pop-up notification will appear letting them know that they’re reached their conversation capacity.
Would you agree with this new update? or are you taking your dating business elsewhere?
