Tinder could reveal your EXACT location to anyone who sees you on the app
❤️ Click here: Tinder distance accuracy
It's a common issue we found with other popular dating apps as well. A disturbing feature of the episode is the almost total lack of cooperation from Tinder. Basically, if you have three or more distance measurements to a target from known locations, you can get an absolute location of the target using triangulation.
The good news is… no! These bare bone versions of your profile are then shown to people to swipe on in order to rank your pics. Similarly to changing locations, people you already swiped right on will still be able to see your card.
Security expert reveals Tinder sharing a bit too much location data - The folks at Include Security describe a method that — given at least three reference points as data — can easily tab the location of any user.
Hi All, I wonder if anyone could help me with an enquiry about Tinder. I have been chatting to someone who I met through Tinder for a a couple of weeks. When we first met, the distance between us was 5km. Then he went away for a few days. I looked at his profile again, and it still said 5km, even though he said he was away. Last night, I looked at his profile again, and it had changed to 30km away. Now it is back to 5km. Can someone tell me when Tinder updates distance? Is it just when the user is logged in? Or is it a bit inaccurate — once I had someone come up as being 2km away when they were actually in Australia?! Of course he is — fine by me — just wanted to know how it works really Thanks, Lucy There are levels: A. Not actively swiping B. Getting rid of account Because tinder does not have a last active indicator, you have no idea which one it is. If he is your boyfriend, I would want c. There really is no way to know, but if the distance is still on, he has not done c. Since the new update of tinder on ios distance can be shown tricky! I clicked on my app to see if he had changed his pictures or anything kinda to see if I could tell any activity. The distance said 3 miles. Every time I had clicked the app to check, it said 3 miles. Now, suddenly today, it says 44 miles. Do just one of us or both of us have to get on for it to update? As for the distance thing, it can be wildly inaccurate even if you have the app on your phone, so lord only knows what it does when the profile is still alive but the user has deleted the app. I got on tinder for fun, but I end up meeting someone and for god sake now I like her… Damn it! The thing is, I stopped using tinder but sometimes I go there to check if she updated the profile and the tricky thing is always the location… Does anyone know how Tinder updates your location? My first date with her she was in front of me and still showed 3km. But this past weekend she was far away on a trip and distance was still 3km. Today she returned home for weekend and the distance is 65km, so does it means that she logged on the app? We met about 2 months ago and I could see that even if she goes to the app she is not much active, firstly because I remember how was with me and secondly because the location rarely updates maybe once a week and I have other matches that constantly update so it means that app updates faster when you are active user. Meaning, someone can say that they are hundreds of miles away, BUT in actuality, they could be right around the corner from you…. Thank you in advance!! Nik I would completely disregard that. My boyfriend works on the road, so my friend sent me a screen shot of his tinder profile, which says he is x amount of KM away from her town. Does the distance update follow your move when you do not open the app, or does the app have to be open and being active for it to change? Use it at your peril because this way madness lies. You CAN check someones last active sn Tinder. It has a desktop equivalent called Flamite. Search for it in google chrome. Add it to the chrome…theres instructions how to do this. Go to to your matches and click on the matches profile. Just wondering how the mile radius works. Someone has had the same distance for over a month every time I check. If he was logged out of Tinder would anything show up under his name?! I go to messages and click his profile and always says the same distance no matter when or where I check.
How to Use Tinder
This is called by the client for your potential matches as you swipe through pictures in the app. Women are far more likely to want to meet you halfway these days so piece your ideal distance and then double it. The distance said 3 miles. If Someone Deletes Their Tinder Do They Unmatch You. Why do I keep seeing the same profiles over and over. If I send someone a message before I unmatch them, do they see it?.
