Starting a conversation on a dating app can be tricky. You don’t have the benefit of being face-to-face, so you want to make sure your tone is friendly, fun and inviting without coming across as too excited. That’s why Hinge—the dating app more oriented towards relationships than hookups—gives you a hand with their fun prompts. Hinge prompts allow you to showcase your personality outside of your standard bio. If you’re the type that always frets about how to have a conversation, fear not. That’s exactly what these questions can help you accomplish. (Not to mention give you an opportunity to hardball—aka say exactly what you’re looking for.) Below, I spoke with Amie Leadingham, Master Certified Relationship Coach, and Logan Ury, Hinge’s Director of Relationship Science, about why these are some of the most efficient. Plus, if you’re stuck, I’ve listed out 60 of the best Hinge prompts with examples. You’re welcome.

In this comprehensive guide, I’ll explain the concept of the Hinge prompts, how they work and go over the recent voice prompt additions. Then, you’ll find a list of 60 prompts, selected based on the relationship experts’ advice, with sample answers for inspiration.

Hinge prompts are basically interview-type questions that serve as conversation starters. Instead of having a generic bio with your name, age, career and all that basic stuff, Hinge prompts allow you to be witty and clever so that when people swipe through your profile, they’re inclined to message you.

Hinge prompts are part of setting up your profile. After you’ve entered your name, narrowed down your location and set your preferences, the app gives you a chance to answer three prompts of your choice under the “Write Your Profile Answers” banner. All Hinge prompts have a 150-character limit, so the idea is to have short, pithy answers that you can elaborate on later. And the word “elaborate” is key here. As a writer and interviewer, I’d say I’m great at making conversation with almost anyone and about anything. However, monosyllabic answers and curt sentences are something even I can’t work with. So if you share something interesting on the app, get ready to dive into it on the date. Great conversation only happens when you pick one of the best Hinge prompts and then give people something to work with.

Voice prompts are the platform’s 30-second audio clips, which people can use to answer a question. Hinge has found that daters prefer voice prompts as a way to get to know a person better before meeting up in real life. To add a voice prompt, go to your profile and find it underneath the photo lineup. You can choose from the general prompt bank of over 100 questions, including “believe it or not, I…” and “I’m convinced that...”. You have 30 seconds to make your case, and other daters can play the clip as they peruse your profile.
