Tinder Introduces a Relationship Goals Profile Feature
Relationship Goals, a new profile feature on Tinder, allows users to display their romantic visions and goals. Users can now signal what they’re searching for on the app, from buddies to long-term relationships. Relationship Goals was created in response to a change in Tinder users, particularly young singles, who prefer someone who is upfront about what they want. Tinder has a longstanding reputation for being a casual dating app. With the new feature, users who are interested in a deeper connection will be able to find individuals who match up with their goals.
"Relationship Goals gives members more control over their interactions and allows them to match with more intention, without missing out on a connection they wouldn’t have made anywhere else," Kyle Miller, vice president of core product at Tinder, said.
All American users will be able to access Relationship Goals starting today, and by January 5, the feature will be available worldwide.
