Launched about a year back, Tinder Social is a feature within the dating app Tinder that allows you to make friends, create groups of friends based on your preference. It helps you find a group of friends to go out with at the eleventh hour.  

Similar to a lot of Meetup groups out there, hand-pick a couple of people after creating a group. Update status, and it’ll match up with other similar groups as is typical to regular Tinder. And when your group matches with other groups, you can begin texting each other. Then make plans to do something at the very night as the group expires the next day’s noon.

The Squad app lets you create your own “squad” by picking up to 5 Facebook friends and these can be switched anytime. Now create a group name and update a tagline (which is actually a goal like ‘going to so-and-so club this weekend’). 

You can also check out other squads and swipe left or right. After you’ve matched with another squad, you get 24 hours to message and make plans. And yeah, you can describe yourself using three emojis or can write a bio if you choose to.
