Overview
- The height preference is available exclusively to Tinder Gold and Platinum subscribers and functions as a paid guide rather than an exclusionary filter.
- Users set minimum and maximum height ranges to nudge the matching algorithm without blocking profiles outside their preferred span.
- Match Group’s incoming CEO Spencer Rascoff has introduced the feature to reposition Tinder from a hookup-oriented app toward intentional dating.
- Hinge, another Match Group property, already offers a similar premium height tool, underscoring its growing role in dating-app personalization.
- Social media reaction has been divided, with some applauding the transparency and others warning it reinforces superficial standards and heightism.
