Tinder is trying to find you a soulmate

accreditation
We have all heard the Tinder horror stories.

From creepy matches, awkward messages and terrible dates, it seems as if Tinder is more a platform for booty calls than finding someone to love.

But that may soon change.

According to Tech Crunch, Tinder is introducing a new algorithm for matching potential partners.

How exactly this algorithm will lead to more significant and meaningful matches is unclear.

But, according to Jezebel, Tinder CEO and co-founder Sean Rad is certain that the changes will lead to a significant increase in matches.

For those who use Tinder, here are some of the more visible changes that will appear on the app according to the Tinder Blog:

- The addition of Job and education fields in your profile

- Smart profiles that will reveal the most relevant information of a potential match

- New messaging interface

- Better recommendations for profiles

Let’s hope this means there is more of this
