One setting on Hinge gives you the best matches, if you’re brave enough to do it
Use with caution!
Dating apps are not for the faint-hearted – everybody knows this. As a woman, I’ve faced my fair share of terrible pick-up lines, unsolicited d**k pics and insults from men who look like they bargained their way onto Earth. Why do the apps hate us, and how can we get past it? I may have the answer for you. For the past week, I’ve had one Hinge setting slightly different than normal, and it’s garnered surprising results, and the BEST matches.
Hinge has actually been the app I’ve had the least success on throughout my chaotic year of being single, and I’ve scarcely met someone on there I could see myself being with. However, during a mindless scroll of my TikTok for you page one evening I came across a user claiming to have cracked Hinge for good. She only had the best likes after months of getting next to zero matches. How did she do it, you ask? She set her age category to 75-85, and unticked the “deal-breaker” box.
@nourishinglivxx PSA TO MY SINGLE GALLIES on the dating apps! This hinge hack is legit! 👏🏻👏🏻 #hinge #datingadvice #datingapps #single
TikTok user Nourishinglivxx had glowing reviews of this hack and said she got “so many hotties” in her feed after getting “sick of swiping” and even running out of likes at one point.
This is genuinely a wild hack and I was sceptical at first, but if you set your Hinge age preferences to the oldest possible, and don’t tick the “this is a deal-breaker” question, you’ll see the top users of your age range. Of course, you’ll have to skip past the actual people in this age range, but the ones you see that are your age will be the best of the best. It’s tried and tested by me!

Others on TikTok seemed to have found success with the hack too, with one user commenting: “This worked immediately. I have no idea why, but you saved my feed.”
Another wrote: “Girl did you hack the matrix because why is this working?”
Your future happiness could be riding on whether you’re brave enough to set your age preferences to 75-85. Once I did, it took me a minute but I watched the hotties roll in. It’s official – this Hinge setting will give you the best matches. Very positive reviews from me!
