Cuffing season is in full swing and Tinder wants to make sure all of you hopeless romantics have the best experience on the platform.
The dating app rolled out some new features aimed at boosting safety and making your browsing time more enjoyable.
So what's new? One of the new features users can expect to find on the app is the incognito mode. This feature allows users to hide their profiles from the general public -- sort of. In this mode, users can still swipe left or right on a potential interest but their profiles will only be visible to accounts they have liked.
Tinder has also introduced a new block profile feature. It does exactly what it sounds like and lets a user curate exactly what profiles they would like to see.
While you might have swiped left on a profile before, the algorithm might let that profile slip back into your potential matches after some time. Now, users can block a profile so they don't show up again.
Long press reporting is also a new feature that lets users report bad behavior. You can tap and hold an offensive message to report it to Tinder so that the app can take proper action.
There are also some updated changes coming to the app's 'Does This Bother You Feature.' It is expanding the language in its terms of service that clearly identifies instances of hate speech, sexual exploitation and harassment.

Spain's government has fined Airbnb 64 million euros or $75 million for advertising unlicensed tourist rentals. The consumer rights ministry announced the fine on Monday. The ministry stated that many listings lacked proper license numbers or included incorrect information. The move is part of Spain's ongoing efforts to regulate short-term rental companies amid a housing affordability crisis especially in popular urban areas. The ministry ordered Airbnb in May to remove around 65,000 listings for similar violations. The government's consumer rights minister emphasized the impact on families struggling with housing. Airbnb said it plans to challenge the fine in court.
