Project Overview
This project was about adding a voice feature for the profile in Tinder, so people can hear the voice and how the other person talks, before matching.
I decided to include this feature in the profile’s description and also inside the editing profile section.
As a designer I had the responsibility to work on this project alone for 4 days.
Goal
The user’s goals are to meet someone with the same interests without wasting time with a non-realistic profile.
Design process
Understanding the App
Tinder is a location-based social App that is most commonly used as a dating App with a target audience from 18 to 34. Since its debut in 2012, Tinder has undergone rapid growth thanks to its extremely simple way of use and amazing organic strategy.
Problem statement
The user wants to meet someone but he’s always disappointed when he finally meets the person because most of the time It doesn’t fit with the online profile.
The current design of Tinder doesn’t allow the user to have a full experience of the profile because he can just access pictures and description but no vocal interaction before matching.
Surveys & Interview Insights
“If a person has a horrible voice during our first date, I will definitely not continue further.”
“I would love to hear the voice of the person to have a holistic impression of him.”
“I don’t think I will record any vocal in my Tinder’s profile because I don’t like my voice and I anyway don’t know what I would say…”
The voice recording is accompanied by a topic suggestion option to make the user feel more comfortable talking about a topic rather than letting him speak without guidance.
Users have the option of listening to the voice of the profile in question when they scroll down to find out more in the description.
