Phase out Tinder and phase in Hinge, a new way to meet people from your own extended network of friends – instead of strangers.
Hinge, a new social discovery app, officially launched in Houston this morning, already earning it thousands of new fans in the Bayou City.
Unlike Tinder and other apps that try to pair you with an array of anonymous strangers, Hinge introduces you to people in your extended social circles. You know, the folks you’d meet at your friends’ party. But with Hinge, you don’t have to wait for an invite to a big event.
With the notable absence of “randos,” Hinge offers a much more trustworthy atmosphere that its users agree is much more female friendly.
Hinge pulls profile details from Facebook, including important info including your mutual friends, jobs, photos, religion and more. You can favorite people you like, and if they favorite you as well, then Hinge makes the intro.
Instead of awkward chatter, you already know what you have in common. So you can instantly kick things off with a quality discussion. Viola.
The free wunderkind app is already a must-have download in 10 cities, including DC, New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles. And it has already matched up more than three million professionals and racked up an impressive array of statistics.
The app’s users are 99% college educated and the most popular professions are in banking, consulting, media and fashion. Almost all (90%) Hinge users are between ages 23 and 36. And because they know your friends and your friends’ friends, you can trust that their data is legit.
