Are you familiar with Hinge, the dating app that’s “designed to be deleted”? If you haven’t swiped right on this popular platform yet, perhaps you should start. In the U.S., Hinge has become a huge hit among young adults and is quickly gaining fans across the Atlantic.
A recent study by Hinge throws up an interesting statistic: sending a voice message increases your chances of landing a date by a whopping 48%.

According to CNBC, which highlighted Hinge’s survey, over two-thirds (65%) of online daters believe hearing someone’s voice helps determine if there’s genuine interest there. And it turns out they might be onto something. The study found that you could boost your chances of snagging that elusive date by 48% simply by sending a voice message during your chat.
Why is this effective? A voice message conveys not just your words but also your tone, emotion, and personality, making your interactions flow more smoothly and come across as more genuine. Moreover, voice messages are perceived as more spontaneous and less formal than text messages. They tend to foster a more natural and engaging conversation. It’s clear why incorporating voice messages could seriously amp up your dating app game.

By adopting these strategies and not shying away from using voice messages, you might just find that your dating game reaches entirely new heights. So why not give it a go? A simple voice message could be the key to doubling your chances of a great date. Who knew dating could be as simple as pressing ‘record’?
