Very few people will ever doubt that love is the penultimate feeling that humans have felt since the birth of humankind. Yet, at the same time that many got their hearts broken due to a lack of reciprocation from their beloved, others had claimed to have had the best time of their life when their beloved reciprocated their love.
A measure of the influence of love can be taken from the fact that tons of people have produced magnificent pieces of art from it. The famed painter, Leonardo Da Vinci, came up with the Mona Lisa because of love. Mona Lisa is now known as “the best known, the most visited, the most written about, the most sung about, the most parodied work of art in the world.”
On the other hand, Dante Alighieri wrote a poem about his beloved not loving him back. That poem is also one of the most frequently mentioned pieces of art in the world. In short, love has probably impacted the world more than anything else.
One thing that ranks amongst the most influential phenomena in the world, along with love, is the internet. The internet is used by most of the world. We say with so much surety, knowing that there are currently more than five billion internet users.
The total number of devices linked to the network of networks has now exceeded 35 billion. To give some context to people on how significant that number is, it is almost five times all the people living on the crust of this beloved planet.
We wanted to emphasize that both the internet and love are two very crucial phenomena. But, surprisingly, they do complement each other in a very important way. The phenomenon created because of this complementation is the world of dating apps. Today, we will be talking about the very pioneer of these dating apps – Tinder.
What Is Tinder?
Tinder is one of the most widely used dating apps in the world. It was formed in 2012 by Sean Rad. You would be surprised to know that Sean created the prototype for the app during a Hackathon! The project was named MatchBox back then.
Today, as many as 75 million monthly active users, the app is frequented. Alongside, it also has 6.2 million subscribers. So when it comes to the total of all the matches facilitated by Tinder, the figure is as much as 65 billion!
Even though the app claims to help people find matches for romantic pairing, it has received the most famous when it comes to setting up casual hookups. Tinder is used by people of all genders. Along with the unpaid version, the app has three paid versions.
Tinder Plus
The biggest thing about Tinder Plus is that it gives you unlimited likes. Another advantage of Tinder Plus is that people can match with others from any part of the globe. It also lets you undo the last swipe we made.
Tinder Gold
Tinder Gold gives you whatever you get in Tinder Plus and the free plus:
- The ability to see the people who have liked your profile.
- Free Super Likes every month
- One Boost in one month. Boost increases your chances of getting a match as it makes you more visible than others for a certain period.
Tinder Platinum
Tinder Platinum is the most expensive version. It allows you to have everything Tinder Gold, Plus, and free users have. Alongside, it allows users to:
- Send Super Likes with messages
- Find Who The Top Picks are
- Take advantage of Priority Likes. This way, your profile will show up before others to people who you have Super Liked.
One thing to be said about Tinder’s paid services is that they often go on promos. So if you do not want to spend a chunk of money to find a date, it is better to keep a lookout for discount codes.
