Beware employers, productivity might be about to take a serious nosedive.

We’re sure some of you reading have whiled away an hour or two at work by checking out available dating options on Tinder.

If you have, you’ll be glad to know that such a process is about to become a lot easier in future.

Much like people use their desktop to access apps such as WhatsApp, Tinder users will be able to do likewise in the very near future after announcing Tinder online, which allows them to swipe from any browser, on any device, anywhere in the world.

What’s more, Tinder seems to be actively encouraging its users to avail of greater access to the app to procrastinate while they should have better things to do; at work, for example, or during a college lecture.

“Introducing Tinder Online: a fun, new web experience and your English professor’s worst nightmare,” reads a release on Tinder’s blog today.

“Mobile phones not allowed in class? Just fire up your laptop and swipe incognito. Cubicle life got you down? Now you can toggle between spreadsheets and Super Likes in a flash. ‘Not Enough Storage?’ Not a problem. Don’t let life get in the way of your Tinder game.

“With Tinder Online, you can swipe anywhere in the world you have an internet connection. And while the online experience is slightly more limited than the mobile app experience (for now), it’s still the Tinder you know and love.”

Tinder Online (which can be accessed via Tinder.com) is currently being tested in a handful of countries: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Indonesia, Italy, Mexico, Philippines, and Sweden.

Aware that some areas have limited access to Facebook, meanwhile, Tinder are testing the ability to login via SMS directly from your mobile phone in various markets.

Accessing the app has never been easier; that doesn’t mean that finding a match is necessarily going to be any less tricky, unfortunately.
