And it&#8217;s been proven to have true claims so far. Literally.<\/p>\n<p>However, the \u2018glitch&#8217; on that part is that a user can disable that status from their account, or the status disappears from their profile if they don&#8217;t use the app after 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Is it a profile that hasn&#8217;t been used in a long while, or is it a profile that hid the \u2018last active&#8217; status?<\/p>\n<p>Then it boils down to another question. If Hinge doesn&#8217;t want its user experience interrupted, why does it show inactive profiles?<\/p>\n<h2>1. Hinge can&#8217;t remove or pause your account without your permission.<\/h2>\n<p>After a while of not using Hinge \u2013 around one month \u2013 Hinge will likely send you a notification to let you know that since you&#8217;re not being active on the app, they&#8217;ll no longer send you notifications.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s because if you don&#8217;t deactivate, pause, or completely delete your Hinge account, Hinge can&#8217;t do it without your permission.<\/p>\n<p>This is some sort of a loophole since Hinge doesn&#8217;t have a particular policy when it comes to user activity on the app.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t use Hinge for two years \u2013 yet you don&#8217;t bother deleting or pausing your account \u2013 then Hinge will take measures: remove your account.<\/p>\n<p>So, unless you&#8217;ve got banned on Hinge or two years go by since you removed the app but have not deleted or paused your Hinge account, your account will be roaming around Hinge.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Your \u2018inactive&#8217; profile will be shown when users run out of better potential matches.<\/h2>\n<p>The dating app algorithms work similarly. Most of them tend to show potential matches that are more likely to go well with your preferences.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>However, when Hinge runs out of high-quality potential matches, it&#8217;ll start showing you low-quality ones so that you don&#8217;t feel like you&#8217;re left with no options, at least for a while.<\/p>\n<p>In a way, it&#8217;s as if these inactive profiles on Hinge are similar to the extra material you have in your garage, it stays there, you see it, but you know it won&#8217;t get anything done.<\/p>\n<h2>How can you remove your inactive profile from Hinge? Is there any way to fix this?<\/h2>\n<p>All you have to do is log in to your Hinge account and either pause or delete your account on Hinge.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Delete your Hinge account: Settings > Delete Account > Confirm.<\/li>\n<li>Pause your Hinge account: Settings > Pause > On.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is all it takes for you to do to not let your Hinge profile roam around the app while you have no intention of using it.<\/p>\n<h2>If you&#8217;re unable to have any access to your Hinge account&#8230;<\/h2>\n<p>If you can&#8217;t have any access to your account \u2013 you changed your phone number or you no longer have any access to your email \u2013 then there&#8217;s something you can do about it.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want your old Hinge profile to linger on the app, but you don&#8217;t have any access to it, then:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Go to Hinge&#8217;s support page \u2018I can&#8217;t log in&#8217;.<\/li>\n<li>Tap\/Click \u2018Submit a Request&#8217; at the bottom of the page. Here&#8217;s how it looks:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Then type something like \u201cHi, I&#8217;m trying to log in to Hinge but I&#8217;ve <a href=\"https:\/\/kissbrides.com\/es\/belice-mujeres\/\">sitio de la fuente original<\/a> got a different phone number now. What should I do?\u201d Here:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>You&#8217;ll then receive a message that explains that if you don&#8217;t have access to your Hinge account you can send Hinge a direct request. Here:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Then, on the part \u2018Was this helpful?&#8217; you&#8217;ll want to respond \u2018No.&#8217; That will give you two options: to rephrase the message and to contact support. Here:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Pick \u2018Contact Support&#8217; and you&#8217;ll be able to fill out a form to directly contact Hinge support to delete your account. Here&#8217;s what it looks like:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>At the \u2018What can we help you with?&#8217; part, you must select \u201cOther\u201d, to be able to request your account deletion.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if you&#8217;re feeling lazy to go through this process, you can simply shoot an email to Hinge at \u2013 make sure to write \u2018Hinge Help&#8217; as your subject line!<\/p>\n<p>While you request account deletion and express willingness to provide any information to verify it&#8217;s you. Be as polite as possible, and you&#8217;ll be good to go!<\/p>\n<h2>How can you tell if a Hinge profile is inactive?<\/h2>\n<p>Telling if a profile is active on Hinge is fairly easy: they have a \u2018last active&#8217; status, they like your profile, their pictures are recent, they included movies and songs that are very recent, etc. Easy.<\/p>\n<p>Well, it&#8217;s not that easy, but there are some things that indicate when a profile isn&#8217;t active on Hinge. Here!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They don&#8217;t have an \u2018active&#8217; status on their profile,<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There isn&#8217;t an exact way to tell if a Hinge profile is inactive.
