Tinder works this way:

Tinder shows a photo.

A photo of a person.

From a person in the area.

Below the photo is an X.

And a little heart.

You can click on the X or the little heart.


The X means:

I do not like this person.


The little heart means:

I like the person.


The other person sees the photo of oneself.

The other person can also click the X or the little heart.

If both persons click the little heart,

both can chat with one another.

Or flirt.

Or make a date.


Tinder works with a Facebook user account.

That means:

One must log in on Tinder on Facebook.

Tinder retrieves information from Facebook.

For example:

  • photos
  • which movies one likes
  • which music one likes
  • what friends one has
