Bumble was refreshingly better than Tinder in about 2014-2018 or so. Making it so the woman has to write first solved a lot of dating app problems:
- Women getting overwhelmed by too many messages and fleeing the app
- Men being able to determine which of their matches are actually interested vs. not. It's so tiring to send dozens of messages and not get a response. It's a really nice signal when a women actually writes you first.
But now, Hinge is the champion. The prompts, the scrolling vs. swiping. Combining messaging with swiping is really smart. You're able to add a little touch to your match request but you also don't have to see the failed ones (the ones who didn't write you back).
Hinge's redesign worked out quite well. https://www.theverge.com/2019/4/9/18297278/hinge-designed-to-be-deleted-dating-app-redesign https://www.theverge.com/2019/4/9/18297278/hinge-designed-to...
