Hinge uses the Gale-Shapley algorithm that pairs people “who are likely to mutually like one another”. It measures this based off your engagement and who engages with you, as well as matches you to people with similar preferences.

How many matches does Hinge give?

Hinge Members can send up to 8 likes per day. Those likes will reset at 4:00 AM, local time. After youve matched with someone you can send an unlimited number of messages. With Hinge Preferred, members can send an unlimited number of likes.

Does Hinge match you based on looks?

Does Hinge Match On Attractiveness? No. Some people have strong filters that they will never see you. Others are too popular that they will not spend enough time on the app to see you unless you are a new profile (and are lucky with your new user boost) or maybe pay for a boost or super boost on Hinge.
