Tinder users have access to several safety features, intended to protect users while they're matching.
These safety features include message screening tools, a panic button to use on dates, and photo verification.
Tinder also has an online Safety Center, where you can get tips on how to stay safe and report harassment.
In the past two years, Tinder has faced a number of controversies concerning safety issues on the dating app. Users have routinely been tricked by catfishers, and in 2019, a backpacker was murdered by someone she met through Tinder.
That's why in 2020, Tinder's parent company Match Group announced it would implement safety measures to address the problems users flagged over the years. Among these features are the Tinder Safety Center, a panic button, and photo verification.
