Spotify-Tinder hookup adds music to romance

Spotify and Tinder said last Tuesday they are hooking up to give people a little extra help in the dating game, by adding music preferences to the matchmaking application.

As they swipe through the app looking for love interests, Tinder users can now tap into Spotify too - using music to help show who they are, and find like-minded souls.

"Tinder, now powered by Spotify, not only gives you the capability to show your favorite artists and music preferences, but also to pick the anthem that defines you, listen to other people's anthems and maybe make a little music with someone new," the popular dating app says in a statement.
