Understanding Tinder Matches: How to Know if Someone Swiped Right

On Tinder, you won't receive a direct notification if someone swipes right on your profile. However, there are several ways to determine if someone has expressed interest in you. This guide will help you understand the various methods and features available to know if someone has swiped right on you.

Match Notification

The simplest and most reliable way to know if someone has swiped right on you is through a match notification. When you and the other person both swipe right, it generates a match. You will receive a notification, and you can start messaging each other. This is a clear sign that the other user has a positive interest in you.

Profile Visibility

While seeing their profile again after swiping right is a good sign, it doesn't necessarily mean they have swiped right on you. It is possible that they are interested in you, but this is not a guarantee. This method is less reliable than a match notification.

Super Likes

If someone uses a Super Like on your profile, you will receive a notification indicating that they have liked you. Super Likes are a higher level indicator of interest, as they cost more than a regular like. This notification can give you a strong hint that the other user is particularly interested in you.

Matching Process

Ultimately, the best way to know if someone is interested is through the matching process. If you both swipe right, you will see the 'It’s A Match! ' screen. If only one person swipes right, your screen will not change. If you swipe right on someone who has already swiped right on you some time ago, you will get the 'It’s A Match! ' screen. However, make sure to check the time interval to avoid confusion.

Additional Indicators

For males, you might see a blurred golden icon at the bottom of the screen. This icon will display a number associated with it, such as X, which represents the number of people who have swiped right on you. If you don’t see this icon, it means that no one has swiped right on you. This feature is only available to premium users who have subscribed to Tinder Gold.

Getting Started on Tinder

To use Tinder, simply download the app and sign up for a free account. You don't need to pay for an upgrade, especially since the price increase after April 2020 during the lockdown period. If the other person swipes right on you, you will receive an alert notification. The star sign representing the premium version is just one of the features available in the app.

Happy hunting on Tinder!
