Overview

  • Users can invite up to three friends to form a pair and swipe together on other duos, with a single mutual right-swipe between pairs triggering a group chat.
  • Early testing found women were three times more likely to like paired profiles than solo ones and group chats saw message volumes rise by 35%.
  • Almost 90% of Double Date profiles came from users under 29, reflecting strong uptake among Gen Z and younger millennials.
  • Double Date is available now in the US and select international markets, with a full global launch scheduled for July.
  • The feature builds on Tinder’s community-focused tools like Matchmaker and Share My Date, and the company is also testing a height filter for premium subscribers.
