How you can make more matches

Dating apps kind of a dud for you?

Here are some tips to up your game from the dating app Bumble and he NY Post:

Add more photos  People with three to six profile pics get 93% more matches (!).  Two or less makes it seem like you’re not trying and more than six is overkill.

Fill our your bio  Detailed biographies get 32% more matches.  Keep it snappy and positive and be specific but not too specific.

Pique their interest  Include some pics and details about yourself that might spark conversations to make it easier for the other person to reach out and break the ice.

Start screening  Video chats are a good starter date and people are used to them now, so try an online date first before a meetup IRL.

Good luck!
