Tinder Passport essentially lets users explore other cities virtually by just choosing the preferred location. Users can either search a city by typing its name or pinning it on the map. Once the location is changed on Tinder, users can continue using it normally. Tinder is location-based and with users stuck in only one location now this feature should help them make conversations with more people.
