Tinder outages and problems
In the past 24 hours, 53 user reports came in for Tinder. Counting only the 15-minute windows with a spike big enough to count as an outage, that comes to 100.00% uptime for the day.
The busiest 15-minute window had 4 reports, about 23 hours ago. That stays below our outage threshold, so it doesn't count as downtime.

How to fix Tinder not working
Tinder is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach tinder.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Force quit and reopen Tinder
Close the app from your phone's app switcher: on iPhone, swipe up from the bottom and flick the Tinder card away; on Android, open Recents and swipe the card off screen. Wait a few seconds, then tap the icon to launch it again. This clears a stuck screen without touching your account.
Check Tinder connection
Open Control Center on iPhone or swipe down the notification shade on Android, then turn Airplane Mode on for ten seconds and off. If you use Wi-Fi, switch to mobile data or join a different network to rule out a dead router. A weak connection often blocks the swipe deck and message sending.
Update Tinder from your store
On iPhone, open the App Store and tap your profile icon to reach Available Updates, where you can tap Update next to the app. On Android, open Google Play and tap Update all or select the app under Manage apps and device. An old build can fail on login or photo upload.
Reinstall Tinder and check help
Uninstall the app from your home screen, then install it again from the App Store or Google Play. A restart before you reinstall can clear a stuck background process, and your matches and messages stay on the service's servers. If the same error returns, search the help centre at https://www.help.tinder.com/hc/en-us for your exact symptom.
While Tinder is down: what to use instead
- Web version in a browser If the iPhone or Android app keeps crashing or won't load your matches, log in from a desktop browser instead, because the web version uses the same account, matches and chats.
- Bumble Bumble uses the same swipe idea, so it is the closest stand-in while you wait.
- Hinge Hinge is a good pick if you prefer profiles built around photos and written prompts you can like or comment on, which suits slower conversations.
- Text or WhatsApp Message any match you already have a number for, so a planned date still happens.
Fix Tinder on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone
Tinder on Windows
- Fix
- Clear your browser cache and cookies or try accessing Tinder in an Incognito window. Disabling browser extensions can also resolve loading issues on Windows.

Tinder on iPhone and iPad
- Fix

- Check
- Ensure Tinder has cellular data permissions enabled in your iOS Settings. Try loading another app to confirm your iPhone or iPad has an active internet connection.
Problems at the same time as Tinder
Since 7 October, Tinder's only spike in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.
When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.
During the latest spike
Tinder: Thu 8 Oct, 22:00 to 22:59
Red dot: outage. Amber dot: elevated reports.
A spike is a sharp rise in problem reports from users, as the live pages showed it. Times are Central European time.

What happens when Tinder goes down
Tinder is a dating app where people swipe through profiles and chat after a match. An outage interrupts those matches and conversations, leaving you stuck on a loading screen or unable to sign in when you want to meet someone.
Login often goes first: the app spins, then it either shows a generic error or returns you to the phone number screen. Once you are in, the swipe deck may stay blank, matches can vanish from your list, messages either will not send or sit in a sending state, and photo uploads may stall. Profile edits and settings changes tend to fail too, so your changes do not save. The trouble is often partial, hitting one region or one platform while other people keep swiping and chatting.

How we track Tinder
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Tinder, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Tinder, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Tinder doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
