Single and порнографии негритянский инцестa fan of voice notes? Great news! Hinge is launching two audio features: voice prompts and voice notes. From today, the new additions are available to all Hinge users globally.
What's a voice prompt? Well, Hinge profiles currently let users leave written prompts that allow you to express your personality, giving potential matches a question or comment they can respond to.
Voice prompts enable daters to record a 30-second voice clip which sits on their profile, offering a similar glimpse of their personality. Potential matches can listen to that voice prompt while perusing their profile and decide whether they like what they hear.
Additionally, Hinge users will now be able to send each other voice notes once they've matched. So now you don't need to wait until you've moved your chat over to WhatsApp before sending each other flirty audio messages.

"Assessing chemistry with someone can be difficult through just photos and text, and a majority of our members have told us that hearing someone's voice makes a major difference in determining if they want to go on a date," Parsons added.

According to research conducted by Hinge, 64 percent of daters say a potential match's voice is an important factor in determining if they like them, giving them "the ick" or butterflies. 52 percent of users say they can learn more about a potential match through a voice message.
Recent launches of audio features have also come with criticisms about a lack of accessibility for people who are deaf or hard of hearing, most notably when Twitter unveiled its voice note feature in 2020. Hinge aims to have transcriptions or closed captions live in the app by the end of the year. Voice prompts are designed as an addition to Hinge profiles and not as a replacement to the existing text prompts.
