The Issue

Hinge markets itself as the app designed to be deleted, the one built for real relationships. But it's missing a basic tool that millions of users need: the ability to filter by dietary restrictions.

We're calling on Hinge to introduce a dedicated dietary preference filter, with at least the following options:

  • Vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian — core lifestyle and ethical choices that affect every shared meal
  • Gluten-free — for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, this isn't optional
  • Halal & kosher — religious dietary requirements that shape where and what someone can eat

This isn't about being picky, it's about giving users the information they need to find a genuinely compatible partner. A first date at a steakhouse is not the right time to discover that someone is vegan. A relationship built on incompatible lifestyles starts at a disadvantage.

Other apps have begun recognizing this gap. Hinge has an opportunity to lead. Please add dietary filters — as a preference profile field, a filter in discovery settings, or both.
