Writing your bio for your dating profile is one thing, but choosing your photos to give your potential boyfriend or girlfriend a glimpse at their future boo is another challenge that Tinder wants to help you with.
Spotted on The Verge, Tinder is launching a new AI-powered feature to help users select their “best photos” to put in their dating profiles.
According to the dating app, the new tool will “take out the guesswork” for users when choosing your most eye-catching photos by creating a selection “optimized to help users find a match.”
A breakdown of how Photo Selector works via The Verge:
To use Photo Selector, users will need to take a selfie within Tinder and allow the app to access their device’s camera roll. Tinder’s new AI feature will then use facial recognition to collate a selection of images for the user to review and add to their profiles. The curation is processed on-device and doesn’t upload the user’s camera roll to Tinder’s systems. We have asked Tinder to clarify the criteria the feature uses to select images and will update if we hear back.
The dating app says Photo Selector aims to allow users to make “meaningful connections” by saving them time in the profile-making process.
A study of 7,000 18-25-year-olds conducted by Tinder found that young singles spend up to 33 minutes on average trying to select photos to use.
Tinder users on iOS and Android can expect the Photo Selector to be available sometime in July. According to Tinder, international users will gain access to it “this summer.”
Well, we hope this aids you in that search for summer love or a potential boo before the cuffing season begins.
