Tinder announced some new privacy and safety features, and one that they're rolling out will allow you to BLOCK someone's profile. Previously, you could only do this AFTER "matching" with someone.
Now, if you're looking through suggested profiles and you come across a co-worker or something, you can just block them to avoid each other.
There's also another feature called "Incognito Mode," but it's only available to paying subscribers. It basically lets you lurk around . . . and the only people who can see you are the ones who you've already "liked" in the app.
Tinder is also making it easier to report bad behavior including using inappropriate language in chats and harassment. If you're on the app, you'll be introduced to those new features when you get the update.
