Video: Tinder is about to get even easier to use

Heart stopping news from Tinder

JOE

Hands free Tinder literally lets your heart decide.

Instead of the arduous task of swiping left and right with your finger to choose a potential date the latest invention leaves the hard work up to your heart beat.

The newest version of the popular app, created for the Apple Watch, uses the heart rate sensor to detect changes in your heart beat to decide on whether to match or reject potential dates on the app.

The app was made by T3 using SDK developer tools.

All you have to do is to stare at the picture that appears on your watch and the sensor will monitor your heart rate to see if it goes up or goes down.

If it goes up, obviously there is some form of attraction, making it a match and if it goes down, well, that’s the end of that story.

Sounds like your matches are about to get more accurate, but is it just us that we find the whole science thing a bit tepid when it comes to finding a match?

Romance is officially dead but at least fast, flirty flings are about to get even more convenient.

The app is coming to Apple and Google Play soon.
