These apps like Tinder borrow the simple swiping interface and apply them to other matchmaking scenarios for everything from employment to shopping and pet adoption. This is about as simple a system as it gets for indicating if something is appealing to you. Since the way the Tinder app works is already so familiar to a lot of youth, borrowing the swipe right or left feature makes it easy to understand how similar apps work, even if they have nothing to do with dating. When it comes to fashion, some great Tinder-inspired apps include ones like WindowShopper, Kwoller and SoSho.
There are also a couple of dating apps very similar to Tinder that borrow the app's unique swipe left or right feature, such as Glimpse, Revealer and Loveflutter.
