Tinder Picks drops swipes in favour of algorithm-picked matches who have similar interests

If you're getting thumb strain from trying to swipe your way to the perfect partner on Tinder, the latest update to the dating app could be the solution for you. Tinder is piloting a new feature, dubbed'Picks', that ditches the need to constantly swipe left or right to trawl through users' profiles on the dating service. Instead, Tinder Picks highlights a handful of fellow lonely hearts that it believes will be a good match, based on similar career, hobbies and interests. Although any Tinder user can see the profiles picked-out for them by the app, only those who subscribe to the Los Angeles-based dating company's £7.49 Tinder Picks will highlight a handful of dating app users who share similar interests, hobbies, and jobs.
