'It all started with the swipe--that fun, simple movement that changed the way people meet,' Tinder said in a blog post announcing the new feature.

It may sound like a stalkers dream come true, but dating app Happn is adding a new'creepy' feature that will let potential love matches revisit your past movements. Starting next month, if you remember crossing paths with someone that took your fancy, you will be able to retrace your steps to try and find them again. If they are also a user of the popular dating app, which matches people through their device's geolocation, their profile will appear on the new map tool at that spot. Budding romantics may find the feature appealing, giving them the chance to tap locations they've visited over the past week to track down lost connections. However, some may find the idea of strangers tracing their movements more than a little creepy.

Tinder is testing a new location-sharing feature to connect lonely hearts. Dubbed Places, the tool aims to match users who are in the same specific location, like the cinema, or local coffee shop. Places is completely separate from the usual swipe-based feed Tinder users are accustomed to. Tinder users need to tap the newly-added pin icon, which lives at the top of the main app window, to access a map which shows all the locations you have visited within the last month. Tinder Places lets users view potential matches who have visited the same locations.
