Tinder introduces selfie video verification to fight fake profiles and improve user safety

Tinder, the world's most popular dating app, has announced that it is strengthening its Photo Verification process, making it more difficult for users to create fake profiles. The app has introduced a new feature that asks members to take a selfie video, which is a better way for them to prove who they are.

The selfie video will help Tinder to verify that the person in the profile picture is the same person who is using the app. This is an important step in ensuring that users are safe and can trust the people they are chatting with.

Photo Verified members can also ask their match to take a selfie video before chatting, giving them more control over how they interact with others. Within their Message Settings, Photo Verified members can also opt to only receive messages from other Photo Verified members.

Tinder has been working on improving its verification process for some time now. With this new update, Tinder will now prompt all new members to Photo Verify when they create a profile, putting this upleveled process front and center. This means that it will be more difficult for fake profiles to be created, and users can feel more confident that they are interacting with real people.
