Tinder is adding to its profiles information about sexual orientation and gender identity.
The company worked with the LGBTQ advocacy organization GLAAD on changes to its dating app to make it more inclusive.
Users who want to edit or add more information about their sexual orientation can now simply edit their profile. When a Tinder user taps on the “orientation” selection they can choose up to three terms that describe their sexual orientation. Those descriptions can either be private or public, but will likely be used to inform matches on the app.
Tinder has also updated the onboarding experience for new users so that they can include their sexual orientation as soon as they sign up for the dating app.
Tinder is also giving users more control over how they order matches. In the “Discovery Preferences” field Tinderers can choose to see people of the same orientation first.
The company said this is a first step in its efforts to be more inclusive. The company will continue to work with GLAAD to refine its products and is making the new features available in the U.S., U.K., Canada, Ireland, India, Australia and New Zealand throughout June.
