What is See who likes you feature on Tinder?
The See Who Likes You feature is one of the two exclusive features you get when you buy Tinder Gold. In this article, we'll go over everything you've ever wanted to know about this feature.
What is it, how does it work, how much does it cost, and will we give you an honest review and tell you if it is worth purchasing Tinder Gold subscriptions for this feature? We have a FAQ section at the end of the article that answers the most frequently asked questions about the See Who Likes You feature.
1. What is Tinder see who likes you?
See Who Likes You on Tinder - You can see who liked your profile before you swipe right on them with this feature. Tinder app has a dedicated screen where you can see all the profiles who have already liked you and choose who you want to match with.
It is a feature of Tinder Gold, Tinder's premium monthly subscription. Tinder Gold includes the Top Picks feature as well as all of the features found in Tinder Plus.
If you're new to Tinder app but have used Bumble before, it's basically the same as Bumble Beeline in terms of functionality. In most cases, Bumble was the one who copied Tinder's premium features, but in this case, Beeline is the older feature. Bumble, by the way, appears to be more creative in naming features.
Do the following if you have Tinder Gold:
Don't be surprised if you've already swiped left on someone in your normal swiping deck and that profile still appears in the Likes You screen. This feature still adds these profiles to your collection, and you can change your mind and still match with them if you want.
This feature is not available for purchase separately; it is only available as part of a Tinder Gold subscription.
However, if you purchase Tinder Gold, you will also gain access to additional useful features such as 1 Boost per month, Tinder Passport, No ads, Unlimited likes, and so on, as well as 10 Top Picks, which is another exclusive feature of Tinder Gold.
Tinder gold prices vary depending on your location, age, and gender, but the average 1-month price is around $30 USD. If you subscribe for 6 or 12 months, you will receive a discount, and you may also receive limited-time discounts.
It is worthwhile to compare Tinder Gold and Tinder Plus pricing. Tinder Plus costs 20 USD for a one-month subscription, making it roughly 33% less expensive than Tinder Gold.
As previously stated, Tinder Gold is more expensive than Tinder Plus and only provides two additional features: 10 Favourite Picks and Likes You. We reviewed Tinder Top Picks in a separate article, but spoiler alert: it is a completely useless feature.
To buy Tinder Gold or not to buy Tinder Gold really depends on how useful the Likes You feature is for you. However, the answer to this question is not so obvious. It is determined by your Tinder usage and the overall attractiveness of your profile.
• If You Are A Girl (And Fed Up With Swiping)
Let's be honest: this feature was designed for girls with at least average attractiveness whose profiles are right swiped more than 90% of the time. It's no surprise that the "feminist" Tinder, Bumble, was the first to introduce a similar feature.
Girls get a new kind of ego boost from this feature, as they can see how many profiles have already swiped them right. And, as the women-to-men ratio on Tinder app has deteriorated in recent years, even if they have an average profile, they can easily have over 99+ Tinder likes.
This feature not only boosts their ego, but it also makes their life easier. With Likes You, all they have to do is select the profiles that they find attractive and they no longer have to deal with swiping.
To summarise, if you are at least an average-looking girl who is not interested in swiping and simply wants to find potential partners quickly, this feature is definitely for you and well worth the extra cost of Tinder Gold.
Tinder has become increasingly difficult in the last few years for an average-looking guy, who is the most crowded group on the app.
As previously stated, an increasing number of single men are using Tinder, while the number of active women may have been declining in recent years, resulting in fewer and fewer matches on the platform. Even great features like Boost have lost their effectiveness as more and more guys began to use them.
Tinder Gold's See Who Likes You feature is ineffective for them and will not help them find new matches. So, if you want to get more matches, instead of spending money on Tinder Gold, invest in some Super Boost.

A more interesting feature would be to see who has already swiped on you, whether it was a left or right swipe. But that would be a suicidal move by Tinder because it would show guys that their profile is only shown to a small number of girls.
5. Likes You Feature Effects On User Experience
This feature has some user experience-changing effects that are worth mentioning.
For starters, one of the most enjoyable aspects of Tinder for active users is when you are swiping and immediately receive a match. If you find the girl or guy attractive, it gives you a dopamine rush and keeps you swiping.
If you see all the profiles that have already liked you, you won't have any of these experiences, which makes Tinder less fun and may cause you to be less active. (More on this later.)
• Influences The Decision On Swiping
Another thing that may change as a result of this feature is the decision of whether to swipe left or right. Some people will be more selective in their swiping because they will look for errors and things they dislike in the profile that liked them. Others may be willing to give a chance simply because the profile liked them.
The worst impact of all is that the feature causes many girls to become less active. They just won't because they can get a ton of matches without ever swiping a profile. It will take them a long time just to swipe on profiles that have already liked them; they will not bother swiping on profiles that have not yet liked them.
As a result, there will be fewer matches for guys and a poorer user experience.
However, until Match Group makes a fortune from Tinder Gold, they will be content to provide this feature even if it results in a poorer user experience and a lower number of active users.
To summarise, it is a very useful feature for profiles that receive a lot of matches but dislike swiping and prefer to use Tinder for chatting and setting updates.
If you don't get a lot of matches or enjoy swiping on Tinder app, don't bother getting Tinder Gold for this feature.
7. How To See Tinder Likes For Free?
You must have a Gold subscription to see who liked you on Tinder. However, you can try two types of free hacks that do almost the same thing as the feature.
There are two ways to do this: one that works completely but requires "more work," and the other that works somewhat but can be done on your phone. We wrote a separate article about the infamous unblur hack, and we show you how to do it step by step with video examples. In this post, we'll go over a simpler but less impressive distance hack.
• Distance Hack To See Who Liked You On Tinder
You can perform this hack by using Tinder's regular mobile app version. All you have to do is reduce your distance settings to the smallest possible value. (1 mile or 2 kilometers).
When you're going through your profile deck, if you see a profile with a distance greater than your minimum distance setting, it usually means she or he has already liked you. The only exception is if he or she is using Tinder Passport, which is extremely rare.
This obviously does not apply to profiles that are extremely close to you and would be shown to you even if they did not like you. Anyway, this is a nearly perfect free way to see who liked your Tinder profile.
That's all there is to know about the Tinder Likes You feature. What has your experience been like with it? Do you believe it is worthwhile to purchase Gold or this feature? Please leave your thoughts in the comments section below; we'd love to hear from you.
This feature is only available if you have Tinder Gold. Even if you have gold, you will not see any profiles if no one liked you who you did not swipe right on.
• I Ran Out Of Swipeable Profiles But Tinder Still Shows Profiles Liking Me. Why?
It is a Tinder trick to get you to buy Tinder Gold for the Likes Your features. These are not fake likes, but Tinder does not always allow you to match with all profiles who have already liked you, so you are more likely to buy Tinder Gold.
