Tinder is rolling out a new feature called ‘Share My Date,’ aimed at enhancing safety for users of the popular dating app. With this feature, users can easily share their date plans, including location, date, time, and match photo, directly from the app with friends and family. The feature allows users to create and share an unlimited number of dates up to 30 days in advance, providing transparency and peace of mind.
The introduction of ‘Share My Date’ reflects Tinder’s commitment to prioritizing user safety and security. Paul Brunson, Tinder’s Global Relationships Insight Expert, offers advice to users, emphasizing the importance of exploring new experiences, being authentic, and giving full attention to the date. While features like ‘Share My Date’ aim to reduce instances of scams on the platform, recent reports highlight the persistent risks of online dating.
Despite safety measures, incidents of dating scams continue to occur, underscoring the importance of user vigilance. A recent incident in Delhi, India, serves as a cautionary tale, where a man faced a hefty bill after meeting someone from Tinder in person. Such stories emphasize the need for users to exercise caution and awareness when navigating the world of online dating.
