Frequently asked questions

Why do I get zero likes on Hinge even with good prompts?

Hinge opens on photo 1; if your lead photo fails to stop scrolling in 1.

Will buying Hinge+ or HingeX fix zero matches?

No; paid tiers amplify views on your current card, multiplying scroll-past rejections if photo signals are weak.

What is the fastest fix for a stagnant Hinge profile?

Audit your lead portrait for solo clarity and rewrite prompts to ask open questions that invite easy comments.
