Quick Guide: Pausing Your Tinder Account to Take a Break
Perhaps you want to take a break from Tinder. Maybe you found someone, or you're just tired of dead-end conversations. However, you don't want to lose all your matches and conversations. Luckily, there are other options. This wikiHow teaches you how to pause and hide your Tinder account. Tinder Plus members can also go incognito.
Quick Steps

Pausing Your Account

Tap your profile icon. It's the icon that resembles a person. It's in the lower-right corner. Pausing your account will put it on hold and log you out. Other users will not see your profile in the card stack. You will not be able to continue any conversations you have going. When you log back in, your account will be restored. Cancel any subscriptions you might have. If you subscribe to Tinder Plus, Gold, or Platinum, you will want to cancel it before you continue. Pausing your account does not automatically cancel your subscriptions. You can cancel your subscription in the Tinder app or through your subscriptions in the Google Play Store on Android or the Settings app on iPhone.

Tap the Settings icon Android 7 Settings. It's the icon that resembles a gear. It's in the upper-right corner.

Scroll down and tap Delete Account. It's at the bottom of the Settings menu.

Tap Pause My Account. This is the first option you are offered when you delete your account. Pausing your account will prevent you from appearing in the card stack for other users. However, you can still keep your current matches and conversations. If you decide to go all the way and delete your Tinder account, you will lose your entire account along with all your matches and conversations. If you want to return to Tinder, you will need to create a new account.

Hiding Your Tinder Account

Tap your profile icon. It's the icon that resembles a person. It's in the lower-right corner. Hiding your account will prevent your profile from appearing in the card stack, and you will not be able to swipe on any other profiles. However, you will still be able to continue conversations you have going and users that have liked your profile will be able to view your profile and match with you. Cancel any subscriptions you might have. If you subscribe to Tinder Plus, Gold, or Platinum, you will want to cancel it before you continue. Hiding your account does not automatically cancel your subscriptions. You can cancel your subscription in the Tinder app or through your subscriptions in the Google Play Store on Android or the Settings app on iPhone.

Tap the Settings icon Android 7 Settings. It's the icon that resembles a gear. It's in the upper-right corner.

Toggle off "Show me on Tinder." It's in the Settings menu below the "Discovery" or "Visibility" header. This will hide your profile.

Using Incognito Mode

Sign up for Tinder Plus or higher. Incognito Mode is a feature available to Tinder Plus members and above. It will hide your account from anyone you do not swipe right on first. This means you get to choose who views your profile.

Tap your profile icon. It's the icon that resembles a person. It's in the lower-right corner.

Tap the Settings icon Android 7 Settings. It's the icon that resembles a gear. It's in the upper-right corner.

Enable Incognito Mode. It's below the "Discovery" or "Visibility" header. Tap the toggle switch to enable this mode. Then tap the option to confirm that you want to enable incognito mode. This will hide your account from those you have not swiped right on first.
