Tinder recently announced the launch of its app for Apple TV, which means you can now enjoy its services on an Apple TV screen and enjoy it with your friends.
It's the dating site's first move outside of mobile, in an effort to make the app a more collaborative experience. Tinder on TV is a version of the iOS app we've all come to love — and it focuses on the addictive and fun feature that's become synonymous with the app's name — swiping. It's centered around "party swiping" — which it describes as a "fun activity to do with your friends."
Swiping is pretty much what you'll be able to do on the big screen. And instead of swiping with your finger in the privacy of your own home, you'll be using your Apple TV remote to go left or right. You and your teammates won't have access to the app's features like chatting or editing your profile. So all the personal aspects of your account will remain hidden. In the past, letting people into your account was a complicated experience. Sure, it's fun for the person doing the swiping — especially if they're new to the app or in a relationship. But the reality is, handing over your precious iPhone to friends or colleagues while you're out for drinks is a nerve-wracking experience.
There is, however, the concern that a message may appear on the screen that you would not want your friends or colleagues to see.
If you're really looking to find a match, then this isn't for you. It's not easy watching your friends play with someone you could see yourself with. However, this game could also maximize your chances of finding love by increasing the number of candidates.
This focus on the swiping experience means you don't have to worry about any of that, which leaves the account holder free to think of new ways to make the art of swiping even more interesting.
So you can have a fun time with your friends over the holidays. Plus, this game could even find you your future love. Just make sure to swipe responsibly!
