Nearby Women/men App Name

[David H]

There's an app which senses fellow single members within a mile or so, shows you their photo and allows you to tick it and if they tick yours as well arrange to meet up. It's a bit like speed dating but I don't know what its name is. Any ideas?

I'm not au fait with smartphones but is it this one? -

That was my guess initially, I downloaded it and all it did was show pictures of every single woman in my age group wherever they were. If there's an option to refine the search maybe it is Tinder. And when you tick them nothing happens and you don't get any feedback or likes from other women so far.

Hi David - I'm afraid you're going to need assistance from someone with experience of using these apps. I've never used a smartphone, so beyond guessing, I'm not much use, sorry.

If you bump it into Latest Posts every so often, I'm sure someone here will be able to help :-)

How does this Tinder app work then?

It's really very simple and easy. It finds your location using GPS, then uses your Facebook information to create your profile (don't worry, nothing about Tinder will ever be posted to Facebook). A Tinder profile is made up of your first name, age, photos (of your choice) and any pages you've 'liked' on Facebook. Recently, Tinder also added a feature that lets you share your education and occupation in your bio - so you can see if you share common interests with potential matches.

Tinder then finds you potential matches near you (you can narrow it down by searching by age and distance) and if they take your fancy, you swipe right to 'like' them. If not, go left to 'pass'. If they’ve also 'liked' you – bingo. It’s a match and you can start messaging.
