Once you have created your profile, you must verify your city’s location. It is easily done using your phone’s location services. Although some people are nervous since both functions are available in just one app, the developers squash those fears by separating the two accounts–profile-wise and inbox-wise.
Your Dating profile will not be seen by your friends and users who are not on the dating feature. It will not show up on the newsfeed for privacy. Information from your Facebook profile will not be automatically synced, too. You must manually input important personal details such as bio, workplace, children, religion, education, height and etc. These are not mandatory so you can get to choose which information you’d like to share on this platform.
Facebook Dating offers inclusivity by having nonbinary genders and sexual orientations as options. You can upload photos from your Facebook account–the ones you’ve uploaded yourself, pictures you’ve been tagged in, and the ones cross. You can also answer personality questions such as, “What song always makes you sing along? How loud?” to make your profile more attractive and personal. This also optimises that matchmaking process. So far, there are only 20 available questions that can be answered.
