Hi HN

I’m building this app to A/B test your (and mine) 1st profile pic on Tinder.

I tried relying on Tinder’s “Smart Photos” feature before, but it does not give any insight into which picture is actually better, and there is no control over the sequence of pictures in my profile. So I thought it would be cool to have a super simple web app where people can actually vote for you.

The way it works is:

  1. You upload your 2 pictures
  2. Community votes
  3. You get the results which picture is better (and some feedback too)
As you know, 1st pic is like ~70% of your success and impact on your ELO score. The higher your score, the higher up your position in the queue is and the hotter profiles you’ll be shown too.

I’ve been working on it for the past 3-4 weeks and would really like some feedback on it:

  - What can be improved? 
  - Trying to come up with a funny tagline e.g. “Facerank yourself & your friends” but think this can be improved LOL.
Hope you guys can roast this idea as much as you can.

Thanks!
