Tinder ‘Double Date' feature will let you and your bestie swipe right together
Gen Z is significantly influencing how websites and apps are built. From Instagram to Spotify, they flock to platforms that offer instant gratification, social sharing and content tailored to their vibe. So, it's no surprise that many apps are now borrowing cues from Gen Z behaviour to keep their engagement game strong. And the latest one to hop on this trend is Tinder. In its newest update, the dating giant has launched Double Date, a feature that lets you bring your bestie along for a date. Now, instead of swiping solo and braving the sometimes-awkward small talk with a stranger, you and a friend can match as a pair with another duo. This makes it more social, supportive and a whole lot less pressure. The Gen Z influence: Feature sees 90% adoption among under-29s After testing the feature across key international markets, the dating app revealed that nearly 90% of Double Date profiles were created by users under the age of 29. This overwhelming adoption is being seen as a clear signal of Gen Z's evolving approach to online dating, one that leans heavily into group dynamics and shared experiences. Given that Gen Z now represents more than half of Tinder's global user base, the results were anticipated. With these early numbers signalling success, Tinder appears to have delivered exactly what its core audience didn't know they needed, a new way to date, together. How does the 'Double Date' feature work This feature is super easy to use. Here's how it goes: up with a friend Hit the Double Date icon on the top right of your card stack, then invite up to three of your closest friends to team up. Pick your partner-in-swipe wisely. 2. Swipe as a duo Start swiping on other pairs that catch your eye. You and your friend get to like profiles together and see if another duo is giving the same energy. 3. One like = One match Only one person from each pair needs to swipe right for a match to spark. If it's mutual, you're instantly dropped into a group chat. 4. Plans, not pressure No stiff intros or awkward pauses required, just a fun, low-pressure way to meet new people that doesn't feel like a corporate interview. The data says it all This isn't just another feature drop, it's a data-backed move that reflects how younger users are redefining digital dating. According to Tinder's internal data, Women were three times more likely to like a Double Date pair compared to solo profiles, and messages in these group chats jumped by 35%. In a world where ghosting is still a thing, that's a huge win for meaningful interaction. Plus, Double Date isn't just re-engaging existing users, it's pulling in new ones. Almost 15% of users who joined a Double Date were either brand-new to Tinder or had recently reactivated their accounts. Currently live in the U.S. and a few select regions, Double Date is set to roll out globally in July.

Watch: Elon Musk's trans daughter Vivian Wilson grooves in drag performance; funds raised for anti-ICE fundraiser in LA
(Source: X) Elon Musk 's trans daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, made her drag debut over the weekend at an anti-ICE fundraiser in downtown Los Angeles. The 21-year-old took to the stage at 'SAVE HER!,' an environmental drag show hosted by drag activist Pattie Gonia at The Bellwether venue. Vivian was dressed in a black catsuit, metal corset, and high-heeled boots. Wilson wowed the crowd with her routine, waving the transgender pride flag during her final bow. Sharing a series of photos on Instagram, Wilson described the evening as a milestone in her life. 'Thank you so much to everyone for a life-changing experience while helping raise money for those in need,' she wrote. 'Fulfilling forever dreams.' The event was held just blocks away from areas of recent unrest tied to immigration protests. All proceeds went to an immigration legal defence fund supporting individuals impacted by recent Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids, according to organisers. Wilson's look for the night included long, flowing blonde hair, dark lipstick, and matching eyeshadow. At one point in her performance, she demonstrated her flexibility by kicking a leg behind her head and twisting her body across the stage. In an earlier interview with Teen Vogue, Wilson had revealed her aspirations to perform in drag. 'It's on my bucket list to win a drag pageant,' she said, noting that she may eventually appear as a drag king. 'I would eat that up,' she added. Wilson has previously been open about her rift with her father. Musk has publicly blamed what he calls a 'woke mind virus' for influencing his daughter's identity and has described those promoting gender-affirming care as 'incredibly evil.' 'I agree with you that the people that are promoting this should go to prison,' he posted on X. Wilson has distanced herself from her billionaire father. 'I don't give a f–k about him. I really don't,' she said in an interview. 'It's annoying that people associate me with him. I just don't have room to care anymore.'
