If you start with a low score, it can change over time.
A U.K. dating app is approaching the matchmaking process in a whole new way, one that has the potential to abolish someone's ego. The app, called Once, has updated its service to include a ranking of the app user's attractiveness. The number rating, which ranges from one to five seemingly based on a user's physical appearance, is said to be a tool to help the user be realistic about who they could potentially match with.
Here's a scenario based on what Meyer described. If your photos rank as a two, and you're hoping to match with someone who is a five, chances are higher you won't be well received by the five. You may be better off aiming for a match with someone who is ranked a one or a three. While some may disapprove of the concept of ranking one's appearance on a numerical scale, Meyer explained how it can help dating in the long run."It makes it more likely they'll find their perfect match," he said.
There's also an internal, algorithm-type design to how the numbers work. Your original number can change, that is, if someone with a higher ranking finds a lower ranking worth their time. If that five matches with the two, the two's ranking will receive a boost. It means those with higher rankings hold more weight in the app world. They can contribute to raising the score of a lower-ranked user, and overall, their likes hold a hefty amount of weight, compared to someone on the lower end of the scale.
