4 tips for starting a Tinder conversation right
In our last lesson, we showed you how the matching process on Tinder works. Now, hopefully, you’ll be able to find a few matches on Tinder. But what do you do once Tinder matches you with someone?

How to message on Tinder
To message someone on Tinder, you have to be matched with that person. First, launch the app and log in. Tap the speech bubble icon to see your match list, and then tap the person whom you want to chat with. Tap in the box labelled “Message”, write what you want to say, and then tap the Send button.
