Profiles alone can’t express moment-to-moment intent. Statuses give you a way to signal when you’re actively available. Your current Looking For mode shows your general vibe, and statuses let you signal what you’re up for right now.
After selecting your current Looking For mode, you’ll be prompted to add a status. Choose how long you’d like the status to stay active for: just tonight, 1 hour, 4 hours, or the weekend. You’ll get a reminder when your status is about to expire.
If you switch Looking For modes with a current status, you’ll be asked if you want to keep your previous status or update it to match your new mode.
When a profile has an active status, you’ll see a purple ring surrounding their profile avatar. Tap their status and you’ll see the option to slide into their DMs.
