SWIPING on dating apps can quickly feel like a tedious and disheartening task.
However, a simple trick can help to revamp your Hinge algorithm to give you the best options available.
So if you’re sick of looking at the same faces or having the same mind-numbing conversations with mediocre men, this tip may be for you.
In her viral video, TikTok user Iman (@lovefromiman) talked her followers through the simple step.
“I’ve discovered a Hinge hack that basically cheats the algorithm and gives you the best pick of the bunch, which on Hinge is still questionable but it’s a level up from normal Hinge,” she said.
Iman explained that you can level up your options by going to the settings on your Hinge app.
After scrolling to the bottom you can select to pause or delete your account.
According to the TikToker, a pop up will appear asking: “Why are you leaving Hinge?”
She explained that you will be given four options, one of which says: “I am not happy with my Hinge experience.”
Once you have selected this, the app will give you a final option to keep your account.
Hinge will ask you: “How about a fresh start?”
According to the dating app, this selection will “refresh your discover feed whilst keeping all your matches.”
You will be then prompted to try this option, which Iman advises doing.
She recommended giving your app “a couple of minutes” to reset before clicking back in to it.
“It just basically completely changes the algorithm and the type of people you’ll get shown are completely different,” she explained.
Iman revealed that in her experience her options have been “better.”
She added that you can do this hack twice in a row to experience what seems like a “different Hinge.”
And while she still has to meet someone on the app, she said the step has made “scrolling on there more fun.”
TikTok users shared their thoughts on the recommendation in the comments section.
“OMG, just did it, worked! Thank you,” wrote one impressed viewer.
“Just did this and it was swipe right after right after right,” agreed another follower.
“OMG, this has already helped so much, thank you!!” commented a third person.
