How do I edit my profile?

Your profile sets the stage for meaningful connections—here’s some basics on how to make it feel like you.

Hinge members are required to have between four to six photos, depending on local requirements, along with three prompt answers. 

This helps create a more three-dimensional picture of who you are so that other members can get to know the real you.

  1. Tap your Photo Icon (bottom right of the navigation bar).
  2. Tap the Pencil Icon next to your profile photo.

    • My Virtues: Job, Education, Religious Beliefs, Hometown, Languages Spoken, Dating Intentions.
