Tinder Will Now Allow Users to Send Each Other Bitmoji Stickers

Tinder does not allow its users to send photographs to their matches, the better to prevent…well, you can guess. But as of Tuesday, the dating app is allowing users in Canada and Mexico to use images from the personalized-avatar app Bitmoji on Tinder, allowing them to slide into each other's DMs with flirtatious cartoons. Tinder users can message each other within the app, but the company's ban on sending images to keep out explicit content does have a significant downside: Tinder users are limited to seeing only a few carefully curated photos of other users on the site. Users can select anywhere from one to nine images of themselves to attach to their profile, which others can view when swiping through the app. Beyond that, it may be a bit of a mystery what another person on Tinder really looks like.
