Why Aren't I Getting Any Matches?
If you're new to OtterHalf, be patient. Building meaningful connections takes time, and our algorithm continuously learns about your preferences to improve your matches.
Here are some research-backed tips to help you get better matches:
Update Your Photos
| Photos that tend to get MORE Likes | Photos that tend to get FEWER Likes |
|---|---|
| Show your interests | Selfies (especially bathroom/mirror selfies) |
| Candid photos | Posed photos |
| Black and White photos | Photos with filters |
| Sports photos | Beach photos |
| Smiles | Sunglasses |
| Photos with friends, pets | Photos with a potential significant other |
Improve Your Prompts
Engaging prompt responses that reveal your personality are more likely to attract like-minded people and spark conversations.
Focus on Quality Over Quantity
Our algorithm learns from your activity. We recommend liking profiles that genuinely interest you rather than liking many profiles indiscriminately.
