Messaging forms the basis of communication, to know about the other person thus, ineffective chat features can make the apps usage inconsistent and lead to a user outflow as they switch over to other functional messaging apps. So for dating apps like tinder introducing chat features isnt enough but belting out some advanced chatting features to deliver a better chatting experience is equally important.

Considering the users previous selections and recommending more similar matches is a great way to win hearts with precision!
