How many photos do I need?

Updated · iPhone and Android

You need at least 4 photos and can add up to 6. At least one of them must clearly show you.

Add or change photos

  1. Open the Profile tab (your photo, bottom right).
  2. Tap the pencil icon to open Edit profile.
  3. Add, remove or reorder your photos.

Good to know

  • You can't go below 4 photos, so add a new one before you remove an old one.
  • Every photo counts toward the 4, including photos of your dog, a hobby or a place. At least one photo must show you. If the app can't find a person in any of your photos, it asks you to add one that shows you.
  • Your first photo is the one people see first, so a clear photo of you works best there.
  • The check for a person happens on your phone. The photo is not sent anywhere for this check.
  • Every photo is checked automatically before other people can see it. While this runs, you may see Reviewing.
  • Photos that are dark, blurry or very small aren't rejected — the app just suggests a better one.
  • Clear, recent photos of you alone work best. Photos must follow our Community Guidelines.
