Tinder today is rolling out more features aimed at helping people find the right relationships for them, while also being more authentic on their dating profiles. Borrowing a feature from Hinge, another app owned by Tinder parent Match Group, Tinder users will now be able to indicate on their profiles the type of relationship they’re looking for — which today may involve various concepts around non-monogamy. It will also now allow members to display their pronouns on their profile.

Tinder and Hinge are starting to look more and more like the same app as Match sets its sights on attracting Gen Z users to fuel its growth. Though each app is marketed to slightly different segments of the online dating market, their feature sets are starting to line up. We saw this earlier with December’s launch of Tinder’s Relationship Goals feature — a feature it borrowed from Hinge — which lets people clarify what they’re looking for in terms of long or short-term commitment.
