And with the option record a voice message on your profile, the get mocked option onlyseems increasingly common.
Voice prompts allow you to answer question prompts with your voice instead of just writing a text answer.
Hinges prompts are meant to offer a deeper representation of its users personalities beyond bios and pics.
Done right, they can add a certain layer of authenticity to a dating profile.
Done wrong, and they can lead to an instant swipe left.
And its true: A lot of profiles have voice prompts that suck.
What is the purpose of recording that word over typing it out?
It boggles the mind.
Side bar: That one-word answer of Georgia isnt great as a text response, either.
Theres no conversation starter there.
You gotta say something like Georgia, Im new in town for work!
or Ive always wanted to visit Georgia, let me know what stops I cant miss!
Before pressing record, ask yourself: What value could your voice message add?
You only get one shot at a first impression here.
Use the recording feature to showcase some personality, originality, and charmwhatever that means for you.
No need to trail off with a so….yeah… ending.
Get to the point, and stop the recording as soon as youre done.
Re-record if necessary.You dont have to be a one-take wonder!
Im always shocked by how much dead air is including in peoples recordings.
Show off your personality.Maybe you want to match with someone who loves your Shrek impression.
Or totally gets your reference to an obscure TV show.
Get creative with what you want a potential match to like about you.
Whatever is most charming about you, give the people a sneak peek.
And remember: you could re-record as many times as needed.
Good luck out there.
