Flirting on Tinder is going to get a lot more creative.

Snapchat has inspired the Instagram Story and Facebook Story features, which both launched in the last 12 months, and it now looks like Tinder are getting in on the act. The owners of the dating app have bought a video app startup called Wheel and Tinder is planning on using the video-messaging technology from their new purchase. According to Variety, the new feature will be not unlike what you see on Snapchat, Instagram and Facebook. The idea is to keep people on the app for longer. Tinder is the world's most popular dating app, the app makes 26 million matches daily and has made more than 20 billion matches to date. Hopefully you've had one or two yourself. It's an exciting move forward, but God knows what type of videos will be sent at 2am on a Sunday morning.
