Off the heels of Hinge's new Hidden Words feature,Secret Tutoring (2018) the dating app is testing another: Your Turn Limits.

The feature will limit the number of unanswered messages users have in their queue. Those with eight or more matches waiting for them to respond won't be able to match with anyone new until they answer one or more of those messages — or end the conversation (presumably, unmatch). Hinge will test Your Turn Limits in the U.S., UK, Canada, and Australia starting this month, with the goal to roll it out to other markets based on user feedback. This will impact both free and paid users.

When users are approaching the limit, they'll see a banner on top of their messages stating they're "approaching the limit."

Once you reach the Turn Limit, you must message someone back or unmatch to start liking new people. The banner atop chats reads, "You're at the limit," with the same explanation about eight matches.

In a recent Hinge study, its researchers found that 44 percent of daters cite a lack of responsiveness as a top dating challenge. Internal data also found that matches where the first message was responded to within 24 hours were 72 percent more likely to result in a date.

Your Turn Limits is a continuation of features the app has created to engender conversation — like "Your Turn" in 2017, which prompted users to start a conversation with a match and reminded them when it's their turn to reply. Last year, Hinge reorganized match lists so chats where the user needed to reply were at the top.

In an interview with Mashable, Hinge founder and CEO Justin McLeod said he imagines this feature will go through a couple iterations as it will be a big change for some users. Depending on the result of the test, Hinge will either tweak the feature or continue to roll it out to more markets.
