Hinge Wants To Make Virtual Dates Less Awkward

The COVID-19 outbreak has shut down restaurants, bars and other fun activities in life but weirdly enough, this outbreak has made online dating surge.

Dating apps like Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge have seen huge increases in downloads. It seems as though folks are just trying to connect with folks who are also lonely.

The thing is, what if you want to go on a date with a person? Well Hinge has an idea.

Hinge has released a feature to get your virtual relationship further by essentially allowing video calls.

It's called a "Date from Home". The best part is, if you aren't ready for a virtual date there is a button where you can decline this feature.
