What Hinge users swipe right on

Hinge lets you add 6 photos with captions. Use this to tell a story about your life and interests. On Hinge, your photos need to communicate who you are within two seconds. Lead with a clear, well-lit photo where your face is easy to see.

The ideal photo lineup for Hinge

Start with your best headshot, follow with a full-body photo, add an activity or hobby shot, and finish with a social photo. This combination shows different dimensions of your personality. Dateup can enhance any of these photos with better lighting and backgrounds in seconds.

Photos to remove from your Hinge profile

Remove any blurry shots, photos where someone is cropped out, bathroom mirror selfies, and heavily filtered images. If all your photos look similar, swap some out for variety. Different settings and outfits keep your profile interesting.
