Tinder Introduces New Social Polling App Tinder Stacks

Social polling comes to iPhone users with a new app introduced by the dating app Tinder. Called Tinder Stacks, the app will bring Tinder's iconic Right Swipe-Left Swipe to group decision-making via iMessage.

With Stacks, users can send a stack of options to friends to swipe and vote on, making polling easy and intuitive. This could be a bunch of selfies, options for outfits to wear or photos to post online - anything that one may think needs inputs from others.

Available in Apple's iMessage App Store, for now, the app is not technically a standalone application as it is bundled with the Tinder dating app. If you have Tinder installed , the Stacks app will automatically become available within iMessage, if you haven't changed the Automatically Add Apps setting in Message App Store.

The app itself is extremely simple. Simply select a bunch of photos that you want feedback on through the app, creating a stack similar to what is found on Tinder. Send this off to you friends via iMessage for their responses, who will see the stack in the interface typical of Tinder. They just swipe right or left to vote as per their opinion, resulting in a quick idea of what is working in the group's opinion. The results can be seen within the stack, presented as how many skipped and how many swiped right to like a photo.

This fun app from Tinder is one of the many social polling apps available today. The polling apps tap into the increasing thirst for peer acceptance and feedback by the hyper-connected pre-teens and young adults of today. The most popular of the apps typically focus on sharing polls through Twitter and Facebook, but Tinder's introduction adds a new dimension.

Stacks is just one of the many new product ideas from Tinder - in the recent past it has brought in integration with Spotify and launched Tinder Social, a new friend-finding feature.
