Tinder now has a panic button for dates gone wrong
Ever been creeped out on your Tinder date? The dating app Tinder announced on Thursday that the US users will soon get a panic button on the app to alert the authorities if any untoward situation takes place as part of the safety initiative. For this new addition to the app, Tinder’s parent company Match Group has invested in an app called the Noonlight that will help in tracking the location of users. Talking about the new feature, Noonlight co-founder Brittany LeComte was quoted as saying that the new feature acts as a silent bodyguard in situations when you're alone or meeting someone for the first time. This move by Tinder shows that the dating apps are now seriously pondering upon improving the safety measures by the app.
