Hinge is “the dating app designed to be deleted”, as is said in the ad.
It aims to provide you the best match based on your profile including your educational background, your attitude towards children, your current geological location, and your habits of drinking and smoking.
You can either have a hookup or find true love on Hinge.
No matter what a serious beginning based on which this app is designed, Hinge can be also abused by scammers, which is quite common on most online dating sites or apps. No matter what leads you to use Hinge, you should learn to protect yourself against scammers that just target your privacy or money.
