Hinge is the major Tinder rival, known amongst millennials as ‘the relationship app’. To set up a profile, you need more than just photos and a one-line bio. Instead, you must answer three questions (e.g. “My childhood crush?…Andrew Garcia”) and potential matches can ‘like’ your answers and start up a conversation.
