How to avoid your ex on tinder?
Members will be ready to access Block Contacts within profile settings, wherein they will add the connections they do not want to have access to or the other way around on Tinder.
Nearly everyone has people like an ex or a colleague they might want to avoid while browsing a dating app. To make life easier for its users, dating app Tinder has unrolled a replacement point- Block Contacts to avoid uncomfortable encounters.
Group Product of Trust and Safety at Tinder Bernadette Morgan says, “We may not be capable to save you from awkward run-ins at the coffee shop, but we’re giving you further control over your experience on Tinder.”
Members are going to be ready to enter Block Contacts within profile settings, wherein they will add the contacts they do not want to retain access to or the other way around on Tinder. These connections will not appear as a possible match whether or not they are formerly on Tinder or plan to download it latterly using a piece of equivalent contact information.
The feature was tested originally in countries like India, Korea, and Japan. Members who espoused the Block Contacts feature in these countries added a few dozen contacts to their block list.
Apart from not getting to face any unwanted connection, the bonus is that the contacts you block using this point won’t be notified. This will also not affect your existing matches or messages.
There are two ways to use this point-upload your contact list and add contacts manually.
How to upload your contact list
Step 1 Open Tinder and tap the profile icon
Step 2 Click the settings option
Step 3 Select the block Contacts option
Step 4 Grant Tinder the access to your contacts
Step 5 Select people you want to avoid from your contact list
Step 6 Tap ‘Block Contacts’
How to add contacts on your Tinder manually
In case you are not keen on uploading your contacts on Tinder or want to dam an individual who is not saved on your contact list, you will also add their information manually.
Step 1 Open Tinder and tap the profile icon
Step 2 Go to the ‘settings’ option
Step 3 Select the block contacts option
Step 4 Tap the icon at the top of the screen
Step 5 Input the person’s contact info and click Done
